Gotcha.

Welcome to our two party system.

Anybody who thinks that one person can turn around the biggest recession in 70 years in a year is completely unrealistic. Most Dems I know who are frustrated are angry at a lack of progress. Most Reps I know who are angry think it's too much too fast.

Isn't it great that we live in a country where we are allowed to express our opinions without worrying about being arrested? That's what makes this country great.

But I do have some questions:
Why is a socialist education system ok but a socialist health care system is not?

Why would moving to a more competitive health care system be considered socialistic? Personally, I would love to have a choice regarding health care rather than have it be in my employer's hands.

Why is it ok to rack up trillions in national debt to fight a foreign war but not to meet the medical needs of our people?

Those are some of things I don't understand and would really like to hear answers that make sense to me.

I'd also point out that, personally, Ms. Average Middle Class here has already had a larger cut with the stimulus package than I had with the Bush tax cuts.

Amen.
