President Obama does not know what he is talking about on health care.  During last night’s press conference, he both accused physicians of performing unnecessary surgery because of the money—which if true, his reforms wouldn’t fix—and exhibited a profound cluelessness about how health insurance works today in his infamous red pill/blue pill comment.  I unpack it all over at Secondhand Smoke .

Dear Reader,

While I have you, can I ask you something? I’ll be quick.

Twenty-five thousand people subscribe to First Things. Why can’t that be fifty thousand? Three million people read First Things online like you are right now. Why can’t that be four million?

Let’s stop saying “can’t.” Because it can. And your year-end gift of just $50, $100, or even $250 or more will make it possible.

How much would you give to introduce just one new person to First Things? What about ten people, or even a hundred? That’s the power of your charitable support.
