Out of respect for a reader at Pixar, I will stop referring to President Obama as “the Pixar President.” He will now be known as the “DreamWorks President” until a conservative reader at DreamWorks objects, and then we’ll find a new name.
Anyway, here’s an update to the post The Pixar DreamWorks President, Cont:
It seems that the group behind many of the doctors in attendance is a “grassroots” group called “Doctors for America.” Ben Smith of Politico wrote about the launch of Doctors for America in May:
This may not wind up being decisive in the health care fight, but the organizing gap between the two sides continues to widen.
Sen. Max Baucus and the Center for American Progress Action Fund are announcing a new group on a conference call later this morning: Doctors for America, which is a reincarnation of Doctors for Obama, an arm of the Obama campaign that boasted more than 10,000 members.
The question of patients’ relationships with their doctors is always a flashpoint in debating changes to the health care system, so doctors are often particularly credible messengers.
Today they’ll “release new reports detailing the depth and breadth of America’s health care crisis and announce a new effort to amplify physicians’ voices in support of health care reform,” according to the advisory.
Imagine the outrage and MSM coverage if an arm of the McCain campaign had changed its name and then organized anti-Obama protests around the country.
