I haven't posted in a long time because...
I've been lazy
I'd lost hope that Obama was really going to bring change
I was discouraged by some peoples idiocy
& I've been lazy
Well at least I'm not making excuses.
For those who give a dam, Health Care Reform (HRC) passed yesterday late into the afternoon of Sunday. I watched, hoped, and when the vote came up I prayed to God that it would pass while at the same time thinking " I bet there are some idiots praying for this bill not to pass." I watched as the ticker slowly inched it's way up to 216 cursing at how dramatically slow it was going. Then when that magic number was reached waves of relief and happiness washed over me; in fact I haven't been that happy since Obama was elected.
As I said before I had lost hope that Obama was going to deliver on his promise of change but last night restocked the fires of hope in my burning hart. Now that Obama has passed HCR I look forward to the future and see green jobs, green energy, banking & business regulation, and most importantly I see a better future for America.
Unfortunately I also know that the republicans and their elitist puppeteers will fight just as hard if not harder to keep the little man in his place. Propagandists like Rush Limbaugh and Glenn Beck will continue to rile up the uneducated and misinformed to fight against their own best interests. Lastly these poor uneducated and misinformed people will continue to call Obama names like socialist, dictator, lier, and nigger all the while Obama does his best to help them.
What a crazy world we live in, Oh and did I forget to mention the millions of other people out there who don't care enough to even have an opinion, wait I just did.
Anyway Congratulations America and thank you Obama for showing me that the good guys can win every once in a while.

I disagree the health care reform act was just about the worse thing to ever happen to our county its going to set us billions of dollars even more into debt then we already are and will further reduce the economy into a down fall meaning lower class people will have to work harder for there dollar. lower class people already get health insurance through the medicaid program, yes there needs to be changes in the program, like it should also open to people who don't have children, but none the less more wealthy people who can still afford to pay doctors bills shouldn't be cut a break as well. The poverty of America needs it yes, but the ones that can afford to pay there medical bills should. America shouldn't be spending the tax dollars we're all scrounging for to pay for the more wealthy Americans health insurance. It means lower pay and higher tax cuts, which just make the rich, richer and the poor, poorer which isn't that a act of communism in a sense? The hard working man can't get ahead while corporate ass holes sit there all day not lifting a finger. http://www.citizenlink.org/content/A000012328.cfm
