Health care interlude: what I’m watching

I’ve occupied my time between blog posts reading, watching, and listening to some of the literally dozens of links I’ve collected since I decided to have my little health-care day.

One is Al Franken giving a stellar political performance as he explains the health-care proposals to a skeptical group, including many of the proposed improvements on which we all should certainly agree:

Yeah, sorry about all the background noise. (There’s a 2nd and 3rd part under the “video responses.”)

The second is Bill Moyers talking insurance with a former Cigna executive, Wendell Potter:

I’ll be the first to admit that both Bill and Al wear their liberalness on their sleeves, but I think both videos are reasonable, adult discussions. IF you have an hour to watch them both, that is.
