Healthcare
Wow, it actually passed!
I'm amazed, I really didn't think it would happen. I know my Dad's happy, but I wonder just how pissed my mother is about it... lol!
Anyway, America, welcome to "socialist" healthcare! You'll see it isn't quite the devil you make it out to be when you don't have to worry about life happening and not being able to get medical treatment when you need it. You wont be quite as cool as Japan still, since y'all don't have seikkotsuins, but hey. You'll get there.
Also, from the yahoo article on the subject, this bit is gold:
Republican abortion foes also said Obama's proposed order was insufficient, and when Stupak sought to counter them, a shout of "baby killer" could be heard coming from the Republican side of the chamber.
Ahh, Republicans. Lulzy in a sad, sad way... considering the majority of Republicans support the death penalty, gun rights, and the fucking war, I would have shouted "murderers" right back at them. Oh, but killing adults and teenagers is okay, but killing fetuses isn't. Hmmmm. For once in their lives can they not be hypocrites? *rolls eyes*
