Steny Hoyer, former House Majority Leader, explains it: The Tea Partiers are not motivated by tax issues, they're just people who come from unhappy families. WTF.

According to this AP report. Mike Ross (D-AR) has changed his mind and will opposed a government-run public option if it's in the final bill. He apparently listened to his constituents at recent town hall meetings.

Steny Hoyer, House Majority Leader, is also waffling on the public option.

UPDATE: The ADG has the report on Wednesday morning. The entire Arkansas congressional delegation is making noises against the public option but probably only because they no longer believe it can pass.

"Too much bullshit"

Steny Hoyer (D-Md), House majority leader, held a volatile town hall meeting with people with booing, jeering, and screaming on both sides of the health care debate. No wonder, they crowd had to wait through 45 minutes of introductory remarks. Some of them had already waited in line for three hours. Then they chanted, "We want questions! We want questions!" One man left early saying, "Too much bullshit."
