Did you guys see Harkin... I almost cried..
Edited on Wed Dec-23-09 08:16 PM by Peacetrain
(I cannot stay completely out of here, no matter how hard I try ).. we have come so far.. I can't believe we are about to cover 30 million who have not been covered.

We are about to offer a life extension to 45,000 people a year who are dying for lack of insurance.

To all the hard working Democrats in here.. thank you for all the work you have done in the last couple of years.

This time next year, there will be 45,000 more men and women and children to celebrate the holidays.



We are in western Iowa, and getting snowed and blizzarded in, but it is a thing of beauty..

I will be up at 7:30 AM to see the senate do its part of this great movement


I love you guys..

1. I love you, too, Sweetie~
It's sounds like a Wintry Wonderland where you are in Iowa. We're getting big soft snow flakes here in New York too just in time for a whiter Christmas for the folks.

No need to stay out~

5. I really am trying to keep posting to a minimum for the holidays.. but this is so exciting about HCR
getting past the senate, I can't help myself. I have a Cheshire grin plastered on my face. My brother calls at least once a day.. he has not insurance, and is cannot get any privately due to a pre existing (now non existing condition)

woo hoo..

I cannot believe we are almost there Cha.. how many decades have we been trying to get something like this through.. even FDR could not do it.

6. I missed it. I'm excited about tomorrow and the vote!
This is Big!...not perfect but pretty damn good!

The snow is headed our way here in Nebraska too. Glad I'm all done shopping and can stay in and watch from the warmth of my home.

Merry Christmas!!
