I'm left of center and was searching out health care arguments from the right and found this website. Keith's blog is definitely a good place. I was going to put Obama as my left government, but thought that might come across as too 'in the tank' for him. I'm glad you did because I do disagree with him on several things, but he makes some really good arguments. <div class="comment-remix-meta"><a href="#" class="replyto" onclick="replyto('12245','Kevin Mc'); return false;">Reply</a> - <a href="#" class="quote" onclick="quote('12245','Kevin Mc','I'm like you.

I've always thought about asking my circle of internet friends (read facebook) on the right to tell me one good thing the Obama has done. If they can't come up with one single thing, then they're clearly not being objective. This seems to be in the same spirit.
