"Where was this guy yelling for the public option?"

He was on every news channel he could get on, explaining the virtues of the public option, Medicare buy-in, single-payer, etc.  He went up against every conservative who had the balls to debate him, and shot down every bullshit counter-argument (death panels, government takeover, etc.) 

I had never heard of Anthony Weiner before the healthcare debate, but the whole time that Congress was discussing healthcare, Weiner was EVERYWHERE, by far one of the strongest advocates for healthcare reform, along with Grayson and Kucinich.

I'm sorry if you don't like him.  He's a strong progressive on 99% of the issues, and he's a fighter, as seen in that video.
