I took a break from this blog for a number of reasons, some personal. One of the main reasons for taking a break was that I wanted to make sure that I had the right intention and purpose for this blog. What I really wanted was to make sure that my voice had reason,purpose and provided productive and not destructive thoughts. Everday pundits are paid millions of dollars to offer opinions that are false, cruel and border on racism. That is not the voice that want to provide. I love this country and realize although we may disagree, we all want the best for this country that has given us so much.
Over the past few months I have watched this country become divided like I have never seen in my lifetime. The President has been depicted as a Stalin, Hitler a Socialist and those are the nice things. What has caused all of this? A bill that will provide millions of Americans health care. We are arguing over giving people a better way of life period.
Many of the people who are arguing over this claim they are Christians and it makes me question if they have read the Bible verse about helping "the least of these".
This past Friday the President went to the Republican caucus to extend an olive branch to Republicans to work together on future legislation to include health care. In the process he defended his polices and seemed to have found his Presidential voice for the first time since becoming President. It is my hope that the Republicans heard this voice, for some people thier lives are depending on it.

Let's have a real health care debate
About 16 years ago I lived for a year without health insurance. Of course I was much younger and the thought of coming down with a serious disease was not an issue but in the back of my mind was always the fear of being in a serious accident or breaking a limb. The blessing was that I was not resposible for a child or sick parent and in that entire year not one thing happened to me. I felt a strong relief when I did get finally get health insurance and could see a doctor on a regulare basis.
The statisitcs show that 46 million Americans do not have health insurance, and many of those people have childern. In a country this rich that is a travesty, and for over sixty years Washington has tried to so somethning about it. This year for the first time since the Clinton administration there seems to be a clear path to universial health care.
During the August recess members of Congress are having town halls meetings to talk about the issue of health care and unfortunately they are being shouted down in meetings by people on the right who disagree with the proposed health care bill
Therefore no one wins, not the people withourt healthcare, not the peoploe with healthcare who need something better and not the people who need thier health care premiums to come down.
What needs to happen is true civil converesation on this subject. This is the most serious subject we will face as a country and if we do not treat it as such the price we will pay is one that we can not cover.
Stop the shouting, stop the lies and let's have a conversation.
