Sometimes you've just gotta go with the flow, y'know? About 11am, I got a call from one of the Raging Grannies about a demonstration to support single-payer health insurance, so I figured I'd go, hold up my sign for a while, then leave. Well, Congressman John Conyers spotted us outside, had us sing a couple songs, then invited us inside. The event was the first (joint Michigan & Wisconsin) regional health reform forum organized by the Obama administration. I knew it was going on, but never imagined we'd be able to get in.
