"If the United States is supposed to uphold "Life, Liberty and the Pursuit of Happiness" how can a sick or dying person without health care have these rights."
~Motivated In Ohio
"Any health care funding plan that is just, equitable, civilized and humane must - must - redistribute wealth from the richer among us to the poorer and the less fortunate. Excellent healthcare is by definition re-distributional."

"While I respect the Judeo-Christian ethic, as well as the Eastern philosophies and of course the teachings of Mohammed, I find that organised religion has corrupted those believes to justify countless atrocities throughout history. If I were to attend church, I'd be a hypocrite."
~Steven Hyde from That 70's Show

A Republican House victory for inefficient lightbulbs
A Republican House victory for inefficient lightbulbs - Daily Kos
"How much money could American families save? The DOE has estimated it's as much as $6 billion a year. That's just one reason why the White House and Senate Democrats want to keep these standards. Since the amendment was passed as a policy rider on a larger spending bill, however, it has a decent chance of surviving.
So the Republican House of 2011 is officially more conservative and more insane than the Bush administration of 2007, when President Bush signed the bill establishing those standards. Congrats, Republicans! You succeeded in plummeting well below our low expectations of you."
So much for being 'fiscally conservative' you idiots!

Dear Congress Representatives
Pink originally sung this song when Bush was in office. But with everything that is going on right now in DC I think that this song is very fitting to the situation.
"How do you sleep while the rest of us cry?
How do you dream when a mother has no chance to say goodbye?
How do you walk with your head held high?
Can you even look me in the eye?
"Let me tell you 'bout hard work
Minimum wage with a baby on the way
Let me tell you 'bout hard work
Rebuilding your house after the bombs took them away
Let me tell you 'bout hard work
Building a bed out of a cardboard box
Let me tell you 'bout hard work
Hard work
Hard work
You don't know nothing 'bout hard work
Hard work
Hard work"
