Birthers = Health Care Deniers
http://www.ourfuture.org/blog-entry/2009083204/birthers-health-care-deniers

Let me preface this by explaining my rationale for labeling opponents of health care reform "health care deniers". I call them deniers, in much the same vein as global warming deniers and Holocaust deniers, and for the very same reason. These people deny that we have a health care problem. They deny this in the face of all facts. They choose blindness, they deny, to further their own self-interested agenda. And to add a second definition of denier--these people not only deny the problem, but in doing so they also seek to deny us a solution. Their denial is pathological, and it is toxic to having an intellectually honest debate about health care reform.*
