But the Republicans don't ever seem able to think that far ahead! They are remarkably short sighted! <br />I sent a note to Obama's website yesterday suggesting that he emphasize, not compassion for the poor - becuase that seems to be quite out of fashion these days - but PRACTICALITY! Who wants to live in a country with a bunch of sick, malfunctioning people?! That's a terrible, weak country! We all want a GREAT country - and to get a GREAT country and to KEEP IT a GREAT COUNTRY - we need to be sure our people are well fed (nutritiously! (sp?)), well-housed and have their medical needs attended to!!! As Lawrence O'Donnell says in a promo on MSNBC-TV, Health care is a human NECESSITY!!! <br />In any case - good little piece - and very important points!!! Thank you. Only wish more people could be made aware of the truth of what you write!!! <br />It's frustrating....<br />Keep up the good work! The truth will out in the end - right? We hope so...<br />Best regards, <br />Joan.Jonellanoreply@blogger.com
