Wow, lots of angry people out there.
I honestly can't wrap my brain around a lot of their arguments regarding health care, but so many are just flat out against it.

Sigh. It's gonna be a long week.

1. So glad President
Obama wanted to get the Health Bill Done in his first or second year.

There's a lot of people who need his help now on this Health Care Reform Bill.

2. It is nuts.
I'll be attending a public pro-reform rally on Wednesday. It will be a different perspective for me, as I'll be giving one of the short talks and will have a view from the podium. Camera is going with me, I can always fling it if the crazies get too close. . .

6. I think most are young, healthy and/or covered by

insurance already. Thus the rancor against the mandate.

I never worried about health coverage for myself ( not my kids) until I was nearly forty.

Edit: I'm referring to left opposition. The opposition on the right is more complex.

7. Our minister
refused to marry us until we had health insurance; he considered it that important.

And that was 40 years ago.
