How do you like my cooking?” When all I have seen is a snapshot and list of ingredients of the meal? We heard and still hear the fear mongering on HCR from the right with their death panels, government rationing, medical profiles kept on everyone, government taker over of hospitals and doctors…… Now I am supposed to react in fright from the fears of the left? The Senate bill is still fluid, it still being written. It has not been passed. I respect Dr. Dean immensely and I like his plan but he has not been privy to the behind the scenes work. Nor have any of the reporters who write so many rumors and guesses for the next hours “breaking news.” Killing this bill is exactly what the GOP set out to do. I will withhold my final opinion until I see a conference committee appointed. Rumors are like flies… » Posted By bito On December 17, 2009 @ 9:05 am Kalima, Kindness to strangers almost seems to be difficult in these days. During shopping today,I was reminded of this fact. A simple “hello” “Good sale” ” Tomatoes look good” are often reacted with a look of “why are you speaking to me?” My brain is not working( for the last few days) so I will say goodnight. (i am looking FORWARD to my blood work-up and visit to the clinic 🙂 ) » Posted By bito On December 16, 2009 @ 7:24 pm While this talk is so comforting does it get on the TeeVees? are most of us not guilty of siting tapping away? Why were the last two political races lost (VA&NJ)? Do we take to streets anymore? Do we knock on the doors? do we do the simple thing of GOTV? Do we even know who our prescient committee person is? Do we attend party meetings? Are you involved in the party of your choice? » Posted By bito On December 16, 2009 @ 6:47 pm AdLib, intended or not not did this tax law exist before and after the TARP? » Posted By bito On December 16, 2009 @ 6:13 pm A warm welcome home to the Planet POV, aBS.

After spending the last few days not doing much, I need to get some chores done today. Need to make to the Groc. store. Hope all is well with you. » Posted By bito On December 16, 2009 @ 10:19 am This is legislating, this is the making of the sausage. Have many here watched many bills this long this much with such intensity? Right now Coburn is making the clerk read the whole 336 page amendt. of Bernie Saunders (medicare for all). What an ass! Edit: the estimate by the clerks office this maneuver by Coburn is going to take 8 hrs. to read the whole thing. This is the GOP’s idea of governing! Constuctive, Eh? » Posted By bito On December 16, 2009 @ 9:32 am C’mon people, Kay Hagan is not the demon many of you make her out to be. Is she a rabid progressive? No. Is she a rabid blue dog? No. Neither of the drug importation amendts. passed and she was not a leader pro or con on them. she is not standing in the way for a good HCR bill. Is she a fiscal conserv? She has to represent North Carolina. She has to get elected. Do you think Bernie Sanders could get elected there? » Posted By bito On December 16, 2009 @ 9:21 am Wish I could read some more but…. » Posted By bito On December 15, 2009 @ 8:12 pm Whoops I can’t count on my fingers. 16 hrs in AZ 17 hrs in CA. » Posted By bito On December 15, 2009 @ 8:07 pm Welcome Janus to Planet POV.

“Liberal groups and labor unions
In a short piece by Matthew Yglesias, Dr. Dean may be contradicting his own thoughts. Perhaps Dr.Dean is as confused as the rest of us. 🙂
The Center for American Progress seems to be quite connected to the progressives in side the beltway. They are think tank not just “news gathers”
I make no pretense to know the answer. I will continue with my small efforts for a good bill.
I withhold my opinion for now.
I don’t stop trying to show some simple simple conversation, kindness, if you will, to fellow humans.
During my worst times, I have had people slam my cane or walker. What is this rudeness? It does not stop me, but it does make me wonder.
good night , all.
I will say this again: liberals blog–coserves. GOTV.
“Kindness costs us nothing, it makes us richer in every way, it soothes the restless soul.”
