And -- I haven't really said this to anyone yet -- I wouldn't be sad if the current version of healthcare reform was nuked from orbit. I don't think it's going to do any good for anyone.

I'm not a fan either, Obama throwing his support to a bill that really goes back on some of his promises, the public option and no individual mandates at the very least.

I'll go with Breakfast Club and sneak out of the thread with my political baggage.

Self-entitled assholes can be fun if you don't take them too seriously, and you don't keep them too long.

I was expressing disappointment with the healthcare bill to my dad who was telling me that the civil rights bill was the same-very tepid but it broke through the wall and allowed other reforms/additions over time. That's what I was hoping for. I know it's really a lame bill at this point, but I'm hoping it moves us in the right direction.

And with that, to bed for me.

Wow. Sen-elect Brown just pimped out his daughters in his concession speech.

Tep is me.

Heathers. Maybe Breakfast Club, but probably Heathers.

I'm going to have Carl's Jr. for dinner. Comfort fast food.

The silver lining is, there is no longer any reason for Democrats to play nice with Joe Lieberman.

Oooh. Good point.

I read "individual mandates" as "individual MANATEES" at first. Clearly I need to go to bed.

My problem was that I always took them seriously, and wanted to keep them forever. I never Dated For Fun; I always Dated For Forever. I just always was drawn to the self-entitled assholes, because they're often so damned *charming.*

The only manatees in that bill are in groups. Pods? Crews? Whatever -- they aren't alone.

I never Dated For Fun; I always Dated For Forever.

I solve that problem by not dating.. They're all Mr. Right Now, if they're anytime at all. Which, NSM recently. But it's still a guiding principle.

Stupid country and its politics.

I was already having a not very good day by the time my computer crashed and took swlightly over 4 hours of work with it.

I was considering drinking, but that would require moving off the sofa, and I think I've decided not to do that.

I'm ita in dating. Just no point for me. eta: I know my type. Bad for me.
