Healthcare Frustration

Sometimes I wish Obama would just say "okay, you don't want healthcare for everybody? Fine, fuck it then." But then I remember that any poll I see usually says that about 77% of people DO want it, and I remember that it's the very "no shit," matter-of-factness re: the validity and need for such reform that makes the 23% much more attractive for the media to report on, ergo skewing perception. Nobody cares about seeing the sausage being made, but if someone picked up the sausage and called it "Hitler!!" before shoving it up someone's ass before setting themselves on fire, then THAT would be interesting to see and surely would be reported on.
