I spent alot of time watching the kids on my street playing this weekend, doing Things that kids do and shouldn't do.. Unicycle on a steep driveway, the boys tobaggoning down the front steps, and even the 5 year old across the way ride his bike too fast. I watched them and thought about the VETO that surely will come from Mr.Bush this week. I thought about how I would love to walk him down my street and ask him, WHO should not be insured??? None of the families on my street are wealthy, or trying to take "advantage" of ANY system. They are all Working Middle Class, or Working Poor, trying to take care of their families. 47 Million Uninsured in this Country, People without Healthcare , 9 Million of those are Children. And there is a Chance here to Protect and Provide Health Care for These Children, Our Children. They are Our Greatest Resource, Treasure. And we should be ashamed that we have a leader that Has Disenfranchised Them so that he may continue to warmonger.
Do the right thing, call the Capital Switchboard and Raise Hell, it is why God Invented Cellphones. Call Media and ask that they Cover This Issue, remind them they have Children too. Call those Running For President and demand that they show Some Courage and Speak to This Issue.
"Love Children Especially for, like angels, they too are sinless, and they live to soften and purify our hearts, and as it were to guide us." Feodor Dostoevsky ( Russian Writer 1821-1881).
