is that Marcy Wheeler is a brilliant investigator/writer, and that I'll always have a soft spot for nyceve, who is now paid at FDL but started as a lowly anonymous writer on dKos, bringing to our consciousness all the healthcare horror stories she lived through and then was sent.

The fact is that what we're experiencing right now is a top-down disaster. -Paul Krugman
