However, they already sacrifice enough for our freedoms, why take away one of the few relaxing pleasures that can get while in battle.
This came today via email from democrats.org and I’m posting it here completely unedited – I’m sort of stunned – what do you think?
In the last few months, we’ve made more progress on health insurance reform than we made in the previous 60 years. You can tell from the reaction of reform opponents that we’re doing something right.
