Why do the author and some of the commenters here presume hard opposition to current health care program proposals are "lunatics?" What then is the "proper" channel for an airing of grievances? The media certainly aren't interested in asking hard questions. Are these representatives so thin-skinned that they can't hold up to questioning from the people they serve? Is America that fragile?
