With Congress still tangling over stuffing this onerous 1,000 pager of a stinker down our gullets, I decided that my own righteous indignation would be uncalled for if I didn't read the proposed legislation myself. That way, I will be more dangerous to politicians everywhere. Never mind that it's NOT my job to read this pile of slop, but apparently people we have elected to do the job won't read it, so we as constituents NEED TO KNOW what's in the bill. I want to pass on to you what I learn and I will be posting pertinent parts of it here in piecemeal fashion. For that reason, I won't be blogging about faith and/or opinion matters for awhile. I'll be devoting reading and annotation time to reviewing this bill. I saw scary stuff while I was only putting it in the binder. Those are things that need to see the light of day, and I want you to know where all the boogie-men lurk.
My husband says Homeland Security will be sending someone to knee-cap me anyday now. Har-dee-har-har.

Do you think this universal health care will include all members of Congress along with the rest of us???
I'd love the read the section that applies to their health care coverage!
No, I don't. Also, did you catch the news blurb yesterday that they want individuals to report people like me to the government? Ha! Why? For reading their bill and actually informing others of what it says--that's why.
Of course, I don't want to make an unqualified comment on here, but I doubt very seriously that this health care bill will apply to them in any way. It's for the rest of us serfs.
Please be advised that the rundown I have typed from last night is finished, but I'm having posting problems. I hope to have that rectified by noon-ish today.
