How Sick Are Opponents Of Health Care Reform?

Where ARE you from, dude? The insurance industry? Do you actually like the state of the U.S. health care system? Really? The loudest voices opposing the President’s reform efforts either have a large financial interest in its demise or just want the President to fail. That’s just selfishness or bitterness. The scare tactics reveal how little opponents are willing to learn about this complex issue and/or how scared they have become from listening to Glenn Beck, a truly scary dude.

Outside The Bowl; U2 Streaming Live From Pasadena

I like U2. Pretty much anyone who knows me knows this. What’s especially inspiring to me is that the Irish band continues to produce great music. They prove this every few years with a new album. Then they lead their shows with the new material though they have much to offer from the past. After seeing U2 in concert pretty much every tour since 1984, it was a convenient yet bittersweet concert experience watching the show from my home computer. Wish I could have been at the Rose Bowl but knew this year’s show would, in my personal economic … uh, searching for clever way to say ‘I’m broke’ … “situation” would be considered a luxury in my household. Even for the most diehard U2 fan? Yep. However, did enjoy youtube’s watch-from-home experience, which included a beer and a ham sandwich (not provided by Google) while singing along with my 9-year-old daughter. She stayed up past her bedtime to hear her favorite song “Crazy.” Thanks Bono. I’m pretty sure you owe me but I appreciate the free one.
