Some comments and some questions, none of them intended to be political even though they reflect on and about a political issue:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. If I take health care<\/b> and turn it into real he chat<\/b>, I have reformed it. Too bad I didn’t improve it. Or deliver on its promise and purpose.\n
  2. Most of the time I forgot to pray.\n
  3. I am amazed to witness a political majority going against the will of the citizen majority. Now to see on what else they defy and withstand the will of the people.\n
  4. The bill barely got enough votes to pass. Four fewer and it would have failed. For such sweeping, generational changes…oh, never mind.\n
  5. I am still kinda stunned that anyone would vote for and thus put their name to legislation without at least reading it first. I’m guessing the majority of those who voted for it will eventually be surprised at something they supported.\n
  6. Why does it take so long to kick in? Because it really isn’t about health care. It’s about kidnapping the health issue to expand control…and test the limits of the tolerant populace.\n
  7. Will any court have the integrity and spine to rule against it?\n
  8. More alarming to me than actual passage of the bill was that they seriously and publicly considered not voting for it directly. Such a disposition bodes no good for the country nor for the rule of law. We are in greater peril than I realized heretofore.\n
  9. Do they know better than the people? Quite possibly.\n
  10. Who gets exempted from having to abide by it? And what’s the significance of that?\n
  11. How does it treat the most vulnerable?\n
  12. It’s been six days since passage of the bill and about four since President Obama signed it. As a result of this bill, who has health care now that didn’t then?\n
  13. What are the unintended consequences?\n
  14. And perhaps more importantly, what are the hidden intended consequences?\n
  15. And what’s with the provisions in it that have nothing to do with health care?\n
  16. Maybe it would have been better to take all that non-existent money and plowed it into Social Security before it finishes collapsing. Too late. Oh well.\n
  17. Christians, a message for you: God is the Sovereign One. That hasn’t changed. And never will. Keep your trust in Him and fear not. Set your affection on things above. Seek first His kingdom and His righteousness. And pray.\n<\/ol>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
