If I were the mother of this country, a lot of people would be in time-out right now. How dare you embarrass me by your display of ignorance, hatred, prejudice and blatant lying? Americans collectively have got to be the biggest, entitled whiners on the planet. It's a health reform bill, not a bill to outlaw sex between a married man and his mistress. Has anyone even read the HCR bill or is everyone just relying on sound bites, coming from pathological liars, who can't let the facts get in the way of their tirade.
It's not like the health insurance industry gives a dam about human beings and their pain, they are just in it for the money. We are the only country in the modern, developed, civilized world that allows corporate profits for private, for-profit health insurance systems to take precedence over everything, including the health and welfare of the patient. As in my case, they would rather I became crippled, than pay for a three hundred dollar pair of orthotics that could prevent further injury.
I have spent the past week studying the HCR bill and have traveled outside of my Democratic information cocoon. I have even been listening to the opposition: Fox, Rush, O'Rielly, Glen and Drudge. After disinfecting my eyes and brain, I can honestly say that I am so proud of Obama and the step in the right direction this country is taking. In another post I will explain why as a woman battling breast cancer, this means so much to me.
Just remember that everyone has good insurance until they get a serious illness.
Note to Sarah Palin - How is this hopey changey thing working for me? Fucking awesome!
