What a refreshing site to see the Big Man himself, right there, with President Obama and V.P. Joe Biden in the "Situation Room" at the White House. One can only hope he's talking some sense into the President after he about shattered the hopes of millions of Americans with one single line. I got to thinking today while I was dazed off painting the kitchen at a house my Grandfather bought to re-sell. He's Obama. The great H-O-P-E Obama. President of the free world Obama. One of the smartest, most intellectual men of the modern era. He has to have a plan. There has to be some reason he's egging the G.O.P on in order to make it that much sweeter the next time I need stitches or one of my kids has a fever that won't go away and our family trip to the hospital is a free, long awaited right as an American. Then the pessimist came out in me and I wondered. Had our great leader succumbed to corporate greed? Had the idea of living the top 1% life gotten to be too much? Or better yet, is our "second coming" a wolf in sheep's clothing? A republican guised Liberal turned profit monger? Now I sound like some of these fringe groups that I detest so much. Yet I can't help but wonder, why? Then I got good news. I read and I quote from TheHill.com “Leaving private insurance companies the job of controlling the costs
of healthcare is like making a pyromaniac the fire chief,” said Rep.
Anthony Weiner (D-N.Y.). and then Senate Majority Leader Nancy Pelosi also issued a statement expressing strong support for a public option. Then just this morning I found this arcticle that livened up my hopes ten-fold.
"There was tons of support for the public option," said one participant. Fifteen members spoke during the meeting, which was opened by Caucus Chair John Larson (D-Conn.), who then gave the telephonic floor to Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.).In the face of White House backsliding Monday, Pelosi reiterated that a public option is essential to reform. Pelosi gave the caucus a "pep talk," one attendee said, pushing the party to keep pressing the message. She assured an ultimate victory.So here we go again. Yet another dip and rise in the "Political Rollercoaster" I'll bring it to you as it comes to me. Thank you all.
