Sen. Sherrod Brown (D-OH) speaking at a health care reform rally held in honor of Sen. Ted Kennedy and his dedication to the cause. Ohio State Fairgrounds, 1 Sept. 09. I'm sorry the quality isn't better, but I'm posting this anyway because I know some folks are feeling a bit down about this issue and the negativity that's getting so much publicity. Here's what's really going on at rallies. CAN WE DO THIS? YES, WE CAN!

Damn, girl, you got here quick! I know this isn't the easiest video to hear, applause aside, but I cranked the volume down and it's not totally unintelligible. I felt energized after hearing it.

I'm not down at all, EM JAY. I know the majority of Americans want Health Care Reform. It's just a small, but very well financed group that is fighting it.

What disturbs me more than anything right now is the fact that a vocal segment of our society will not come out and say what they are REALLY mad about. They dance around it, they pick any and every excuse they can think of to find fault where there is none. What is driving them so incredibly crazy is the fact that the man occupying the White House right now is smarter than them, more educated than them, more articulate and eloquent than them...and he happens to be black. If someone has another explanation for what's going on after eight years of the most obscene government in our history, I'd sure like to hear about it.
