TWO POSTS IN ONE

First off, I want to touch on something that has been bothering me since somebody told Sarah Palin (I know she wasn't witty enough to make this up herself) to accuse President Obama's approach on reforming the Health Care system as "Socialistic". The bottom line is that this is an untrue statement, though Republicans were quick to take things out of context when arguing it (Also making me lose a LOT of trust in the integrity I thought John McCain possessed.) You can get a quick refresher with this easy to understand Forbes article

Now, just to put things in perspective for anyone who still isn't tracking me....
UNITED STATES FEDERAL AND STATE EMPLOYEES, SUCH AS PALIN, OBAMA, MCCAIN, THE MILITARY, AND YOUR LOCAL POSTMEN ALL RECEIVE THE MOST SOCIALIZED HEALTH CARE IN THE NATION!!!
yes, joe the plumber, YOUR tax money pays for 100% of the health insurance plans that THEY and THEIR FAMILIES enjoy. Do you get anything out of that? Directly, the answer is NO! Indirectly, yes- you get a healthier politician, a more fit Dept. of Defense, and more reliable service at the DMV(supposedly) but the basic point I'm trying to make is,
IF YOU ARE A TAX PAYER, YOU ARE ALREADY FUNDING A WAY MORE SOCIALIST HEALTH CARE THAN THE PRESIDENT EVEN WANTS TO CREATE. so start realizing how lucky we are to live in a country that even HAS a health care system and stop finding reasons to complain about what the world hasn't given YOU today.

I can't remember what the second part of this was going to be, but i think it had to do with me talking to stubbs for a while today(SWEET!), going to BevMo and wishing I had a million dollars to spend on strange/exotic alcohols, and over all excitement for the weekend. SMOKE OR FIRE ON WEDNESDAY NIGHT!!!! yeah. I know there was more, but I don't remember.
