Rant. Watching the final house debate on the health care reform legislation was for me, encouraging in the final outcome, but revolting with respect to the process.
Maybe it’s to be expected. Our representatives largely represent the special interests that help them get elected. Maybe my expectations are too high. With the whole world watching, the representatives argued, shouted and postured raw politics and little else. Shame on both sides. Worse, it’s unlikely they’ll ever really change.
So, it’s up to us – every two years. All we have to do is become, or stay, informed and then vote. Otherwise, we deserve this godawful mess. Seriously.
