Arthur Delaney, Huffington Post:

Congressman Eric Massa (D-N.Y.) led a protest Monday outside the Ritz-Carlton hotel in Washington, site of the 2009 national conference of America's Health Insurance Plans (AHIP), a trade group for the health insurance industry.

"We are not radicals! We are not a fringe element!" shouted Massa, who opted not to use the bullhorn provided by protest organizers. "We are the 48 million Americans who cannot access health care today!"

    Agree! Our politicians as well as some Universal Health care activists, sadly, grossly underestimate the potential grass root support for the Single Payer Health care system today in US. The time is come. As I wrote many times in various bloggs in the past, this is a Civil Rights issue and probably will need to be fought on the streets and marches to the D.C.
