  1. I guess I should have focused on a "Health Care" presentation, since I guess they're surprising everyone in the country with a vote on that today…

    While everyone is watching the Sotomayor hearings… I guess we should have been watching the "other hand". Misdirection… but why are our politicians resorting to "misdirection"?

    Is it because they KNOW this isn't what America wants?

  3. Naomi says:

    ya they aren't voting on this again until we least expect it

  5. Cheryl Scott says:

    I loved the presentation. It was an eye opener.
