		<description>Wow.  Are you still thinking that? Does it not matter how many average middle and low income people stand up and say they aren't buying Obama's spiel?

Look - I'm one of those "uninsured Americans". I am low income; I am a widow.  And I don't want this health care bill they are jamming through. In fact, I told my kids yesterday that if it passes, I'll be one of them that disobeys the law and refuses to buy it. 

This health care bill has nothing to do with helping people like me. Are you kidding me? What makes you think I can afford the price tag?  Obama's people are just spewing rhetoric, pretending that this if for us poor people.  In reality - it's about controlling people.  

I can see this because I've lived with the Indian reservation system for 30 years. Another example of government control pretending to be government help - and making a disaster of lives while doing it. 

Excuse me, my husband and I moved the kids away from the corrupt tribal system to keep them out of that garbage. Don't make the rest of America just like the reservations.

And if it wasn't obvious to you yesterday that most Americans aren't buying the rhetoric, I don't know what is going to help you.  Those were regular people out there voting - not just wealthy and upper class (who, by the way, predominate the Democratic party on the East coast)</description>

		<description>Some Earthquake. 

Massachusetts, the second wealthiest State in the Union measured by Personal Income per capita, votes in a man who plans to block healthcare reform. So those who can afford private healthcare vote to deny healthcare to those who can’t. How very American…</description>

		<description>As we have all been glued to our TV's and watching all the news from Haiti, we naturally feel great sorrow for those who have perished in the Quake that hit their tiny island.   The death tolls peel as the bodies are being pulled one by one oot of the rubble.  We are jubilant when even one person is found alive.
God Bless these people who are now suffering with their losses.

As for the Quake that hit Mass......The people of Massachuettes have spoken, LOUD AND CLEAR.
They voted for their first Republican in 47 years.   
Scott Brown and his truck will be heading for Washington DC, so watch out Dems, here he comes.</description>
