Obama's call to support health care

I'm back and again I must apologize to readers as I have been totally consumed with visiting relatives that I have not seen in a long time. The beat goes on in my absence however, as Republicans keep finding new ways to astonish all.

Take for example, Michael Steele being asked a simple question; what company is your health care provider? That's right, the Republican Party Chairman does not know his health care provider. Now there is stupid and imbecilic. Michael Steele is definitely the latter. This is probably far worse than John McCain not knowing how many houses he owns. And these folks want to tell Americans what is best for their health care needs? How about that Sarah Palin, quitting her Governor's job (first term half way through) and thinking that she can remain a force in politics?

President Barack Obama has called upon progressive bloggers to jump out and support his health care plan. This is exactly what I intend to do. Obama was solidly elected on a platform of providing health care opportunity for all Americans and legislators that stand in the way need to watch out for the train that it going to hit them right between the eyes. The United States does not have the best health care in the world. Health care is a right - it's part of that silly "pursuit of happiness" thing.

One thing is for sure, the health care plan when passed will not be perfect. There will be a lot for people to debate and complain about. Obama is absolutely right however, let's get started and find answers along the way.

"Thank God I voted for Obama"; sounds like a good bumper sticker to me!
