I like the idea that government can do something. Not just say they will.
When slavery was abolished it was protested, but government passed it.
When women won the right to vote, it was protested. But government passed it because it was the right thing to do.
Civil rights was protested and segregation was legal from state to state. Federal government passed it because it was the right thing to do.
Gay and lesbian rights.
Roe v. Wade
Medicare/ Medicaid - which Ronald Reagan said was a "socialist form of health care" my right wing parents have Medicare.
Social Security
COBRA- which passed on reconciliation...
All of these have been passed by government despite the protest of individuals. Individuals who are benefiting from those changes. Including my parents with Medicare and those who collect Social Security. I am very proud of that in my lifetime, the President that I was very proud to vote for, finally got a Universal Health care bill passed. The bill is not perfect, but it is the beginning. The same way the first bill including Medicare did not include all that it has today. THIS IS AN AMAZING THING. NO ONE SHOULD DIE SIMPLY BECAUSE THEY ARE ILL AND ALONE IN THIS COUNTRY. THE UNITED STATES SAYS THEY ARE THE BEST, #1 EVEN. LET'S SEE THEM PROVE IT!
HEALTH CARE IS NOT A PRIVILEGE IT IS A CIVIL LIBERTY!!!

HOW ELSE DO U STATE THE OBVIOUS???
YA THINK?
Tiger, your wife is understandably pissed. So, deal. That's it. You did not practice self control, not discipline which is thoroughly mentioned in your Buddhist upbringing. So, tough titty, sweety.
ELIN, JUST DO WHAT MOST WOMEN DO. SCREW HIS BEST FRIEND.
REALLY? THIS SKANK?
This skank? With the tats not only covering 90% of her body, but her face as well? Like the whole forehead?
Wow, OK. If that's the way you get down alright.
Sorry Sandra, your beautiful ass (literally) deserves so much better than this.
Now go shower with Soft Scrub and wash the stank of putrid whore off of you.
