If you read on the left blogosphere, Media Matters, TPM Muckraker, and

look at a site like MM and see for them selves what we are talking

Mike, of course it is a left wing site. It does not pretend to be anything

One of the consistent trends of our recent political history is that
the broadly conservative and libertarian thinks the left is badly
misguided but educable, while the left thinks conservatives and
libertarians are evil and selfish.

I guess you are saying this because the final bill did not contain language

IME, what most non-libertarians seem to think is that
It is not illegal at the present time is the problem. The bill was
in part an attempt to make it illegal, as the practice was ongoing in
Illinois hospitals. Can you point to a single case of prosecution
that would indicate the state thought it to be illegal?

It does sound as if time spent there is quality time. That is besides
the point was making though. It is possible to convey misinformation
without uttering a single thing that is not true.
