Momentary Reprieve
Immeasurable thanks to those who wrote, called, emailed, faxed, and protested, up to and including those who braved the ire of senators and got mauled and yanked from wheelchairs and arrested, and then responded by shouting more and louder.
The setback is the GOP’s, but they aren’t quitting; they are regrouping. Pay special attention to those who didn’t support the bill because, in their view, it didn’t go far enough, wasn’t cruel enough, wasn’t punitive enough, because the bill’s intent is NOT about providing health care — it IS about depriving Barack Obama of his presidential legacy. It’s not about caring for the people of this country, it’s about hating him. Period.
In their limited vision, you and I are just collateral damage, mere annoyances obstructing their vendetta; we’re proving them wrong about that, too. They’ll fall back and regroup, and will be met by letters and phone calls and emails and faxes and protestors on foot and in wheelchairs because we have no need to regroup, our purpose is set. We have a reprieve, but we are ready. And eventually, the day will be ours.
