Those of us who desired something different with the citizen as the focus aren't going to get it because of the prevalent ideology. The shift of focus needs to go to media reform and ending the pending Afghanistan quagmire that will only further divide Americans because the average American doesn't know the background of the region. I want to feel sane again. Ending the growing hatred of each other in this country is the only hope to ever to getting common ground in order to fix a country drowning in a myriad of problems that aren't being addressed. Fixing healthcare will have to be carried forward to the next and future sessions of Congress.

The insurance debate for something better will have to happen in the next congress. The war is escalating with no stable policy. The media is an uninformative mess. The hate behind the propaganda that is dividing this country is bringing us to an irreconcilable point. Criminal behavior has not been or been un addressed in a population that hasn't been able to understand it or its consequences. Fellow citizens are having their rights stripped away through a voting process. There needs to be some reversal of this.

2. Dealing with global climate change may be 'common ground' |

At least I hope so. Because if we don't try to ameliorate that problem on a united front then media reform and the Afghan wars won't really make much difference.

5. That's not the point I'm making. |
|
This particular bill isn't going to resolve it.

6. The stance you're taking is that you're ready to ignore legalized bigotry because you're weary. |

7. You know how to shut down a conversation, don't you? |
|
You don't know me nor will you ever. That's insulting.

8. How insulting is it? Insulting as being reduced to less than human in law? And having your supposed |
|
allies view this as a victory? I only know what you've posted. And it's beyond insulting to me.

9. Where do you get your opinions of my message and who are my allies |
|
of which you speak? I am for fixing the discrimination. I'm also for fixing the unaffordability and growing costs. I'm also for stopping the shame of close to 50K deaths per annum for lack of access. So I'm in no mood for anyone to bear false witness of me. I fought for 20 years at the state and local level for disability rights.
