Just saw this over at C&L and thought it was an excellent idea and what a nice topic for discussion here it would make.
I think that with all the hulabaloo surrounding the health care issue the real issue is getting lost in the clutter. Part of this is due to poor communications from the Democrats and of course the utter failure of the traditional media to do its job. But we can help them by refocusing their energies on what needs to be done.
The Republicans are not your friends. Now I know you may think you are all buddy buddy with them, having a nice lunch or outing on the golf course. Discussing legislative "solutions" over tea or brunch, But they are not your friends no matter how nice they may seem at work. Lets take a closer look at who you are dealing with.
This is a plea to you to stop lollygaging and pass some real health care reform. Us normal folk are hurting really bad out here. Every objection raised by the republicans and your conservative democratic breatheren is BUNK. And not just normal bunk, but super over the top BUNK.
Note to traditional media. Stop with the stupid. I am begging you. My brain can only handle so much stupidity and you are quickly approaching the danger zone. I thought the Clinton years in the 90's was bad. If the past week is any indication of how the next four years is going to be I may not survive.
I have seen lots of comments and a couple diaries that are all gloom and doom about the recount in Minnesota that will be taking place later this month. I have even read some people wondering why bother. While the odds that he will ultimately prevail ore not overwhelmingly in his favor the most certainly are within the realm of the possible.
Almost every weekend I head on out to one of the local casinos and participate in one of the local poker tournaments. You typically have to show up early to get in for these things so you spend a good chunk of time before things start talking to other players. Normally this means lots of sports, poker stories, and play strategies. Not this last Saturday.
My Democratic congress critters please keep this one very important thing in mind when you tackle the financial bailout legislation. The Republicans will attack you no matter what you do,so do the right thing.
All the time? Can't you for once stand up for the constitution, the people who elected you and the principles you claim to espouse as a member of the Democratic party and member of congress?
Provided of course democrats take the white house and expand their majorities in the House and Senate. Due to a corrupt Republican administration and cowardly caving Democrats we have two justices, Roberts and Alito, neither of whom should have even made it out of commitee let alone be appointed to the Supreme Court.

Us. We the people. We were the big winners last night. Regardless of what you may think of your favorite candidate or where they finished last night. We have three very strong candidates in our field and several promising ones in addition to the front runners, and it showed. The nomination is still up for grabs for any of the three front runners.
All to soon we will be voting to name our next leader. Our country has been in the middle of a crisis essentially since 9/11, and it will take extraordinary leadership to get our great country back on course.
