Joe Lieberman and Ben Nelson, I can say with confidence, are the absolute worst people in America. They don’t obstruct as much as the GOP, but they hold the power to literally extend health care to 35 MILLION people. But they love their political donations far too much for something like that.
How could they see this and live with themselves?
The stories were gut wrenching. I couldn’t help but think this is where the Senate needs to do their business. Do it right in front of the eyes of the people in their own country who are struggling to make ends meet and live in dignity. The Senate should do business in front of the families that have played by the rules and have been dealt a personal set back for one reason or another. Have the guts to tell these people to their face that they aren’t worthy of health care because they don’t have money. They may see these faces briefly on the campaign trail, but they make no decisions in front of them when they are standing in line in pain, in agony and in desperate need.
America has a heartless side to it as well. That is demonstrated when U.S. Senators put the God Almighty Dollar in front of people who put them in office. How any law maker could deny full access and full health care coverage is beyond me. Senators who put themselves ahead of the people and who have been spoiled by the Washington good life have lost their soul and what it means to be an American. We throw billions of dollars at wars, often without hesitation, but some in the Congress are willing to treat humans in their own country like a piece of machinery that can be left in a junk yard. My God, what has happened to America ?
