The preferred nomenclature

~ Jim Eltringham

I just want to make sure I have this straight…

People opposing government health care at town halls – that’s “Astroturf.”  The White House giving marching orders to activists to make a public display supporting government health care – that’s grassroots.

I’m not sure I get it.  Is this going to be on the quiz?
