VIDEO: Reich says public option can happen + Obama to rally grassroots on HCR

By GottaLaff



Keep up the pressure, make calls, send e-mails... you know, fight!

President Obama will rally grassroots Organizing for America volunteers next week with the goal of making 100,000 calls to Congress in support of health care.

Prez O is back in "pumping up supporters" mode. Why, I feel pumped already!

A Democratic source told TPMDC that Obama will ask volunteers to call Congress to support health care and tell them, "It's up to you to close the deal." He'll also reprise the talking point from the last few days that it's historic and this is the farthest Congress has ever come in the health care fight.

Go here to read the letter from Organizing for America.

And remember: When you rev up your activism, make sure words like "single payer" and "public option" are LOUD and CLEAR. Why bother to mention single payer when it has no chance? Because they need to know what we really want, and that a public option is the compromise.
