Is it just me, or do our opponents sound crazier every day?

Take opponents of health care reform; they're spending millions of dollars on TV ads that call the President's plan "socialism," "rationing," and "a government takeover." It sort of makes you wonder - where do these people come up with this stuff?

Meet HAARM: Healthy Americans Against Reforming Medicine - www.haarm.org

HAARM is what we imagine is happening behind the scenes of the anti-health care reform movement. An organization dead set on torpedoing any efforts to fix America's broken health care system.

We've even made a video to show what it looks like inside one of their late night brainstorming sessions. Take a look: www.haarm.org

Obviously, HAARM isn't real, but the stuff they say in the video really does come straight out of the Republican playbook. And, with a debate as serious as reforming health care, taking your talking points from Glenn Beck and Rush Limbaugh is simply unacceptable.

Will you watch the video and share it with your friends? We need to get the message to our opponents that we're not buying their nonsense; it's time for a serious conversation about fixing health care.

President Obama recently unveiled his budget for getting America back on track - and it includes a significant downpayment toward fixing health care. As usual, opponents of reform are on the attack, attempting to turn our national discussion on health care into an uninformed, schoolyard brawl. Just check out Rep. Zach Wamp's recent appearance on MSNBC:

And yes, he really just did say "Obama wants to give health care to everybody" - as if providing affordable, quality care to everyone is a gross perversion of American values.

We cannot let Rep. Wamp and others drive this debate. That's why we're mobilizing to write Congress in support of the president's $634 billion investment in health care - it's time Congress step up with the same commitment toward reform. Let's bring our voices to the table, and silence opponents like Rep. Wamp. After all, when it comes to the budget, the facts are clear.

The president's budget:

1. Makes a $634 billion down payment on fixing health care - the first step in guaranteeing everyone equality, affordable health care.
2. Invests an additional $330 million in training nurses, doctors, and

dentists.
3. Reduces taxes for 95% of working Americans. And, if your family makes less than $250,000, your taxes won't go up one dime.
4. Stops unnecessary government subsidies to health insurance companies.
5. Negotiates for better prescription drug prices using Medicaid's tremendous bargaining power - saving taxpayers $19 billion dollars.
6. Introduces a new nurse home visitation program focused on helping at-risk young families.
7. Commits to double the funding for Cancer research.
8. Stops waste by reducing Medicare overpayments to private insurers through a competitive system based on the market.
9. Asks hospitals to make sure patients are ready for discharge to avoid unnecessary re-admissions.
10. Hospitals and doctors will be rewarded for delivering high quality care.
