The problem in some areas is that they think people look act and
think monolithic or homogeneous.
I am not one who could really be called a liberal (Well if compared
to a John Bircher maybe)
I do not vote straight party tickets and normally do not vote
Democratic (I vote based on Candidate)
I do not agree with nor support all of Pres. Obama's initiatives. I
just happen to be p0assionate about this one Topic Health care reform.
I think most of what has been seen on public airwaves is
disinformation from both sides and is political in nature.
There is too much money involved from many sides to seriously look at
helth care reform because way too many lobbyists have a vested interest.
I just spent a half hour on the phone trying to get a prescription
for my wife. This is not anew medication it is not an experimental
medication it is one that is advertised on TV a lot. Problem is it
is name brand and my prescription plan does not want to pay the bucks
for her to have it. Because it hurts the bottom line.
So I take out of my productivity to get the company to do what they
have been paid to do, instead of circling their wagons and denying
everything that is supposed to happen. (I am finding that they loose
information and do not keep real good track of their phone logs.)
This is the type of health care system we defend and cheer on and do
not want to change? They have all sorts of electronic information in
front of them and instead of making human decisions they allow the
computer to make it for them and then do not stand behind it when pushed?
How stupid.

deserve. If you believe that she's accurate, you're more gullible
than I thought. Camille sez, "...This Salon column is my sole Web

Just because many of us actually think about issues, analyzing
details, and acting on the results, that doesn't mean we're sheeple.
But to Libertarians, all who aren't like them are sheeple. They want
to do what they want to do, when they want to do it, how they want
to do it, disregarding all others, until they get sick or lose their
jobs or homes and need help. Even the churches and NGO nonprofits
get some of their precious money from the feds in the taxes they
don't pay and the grants from local/state/federal agencies.
Why do you fear the government? Because you've chosen to avoid it
and not participate, letting others make decisions for you? Were you
drafted to go to war? Have you ever testified at gummint hearings? Campaigned?
