Examining a victory

I am ready to cut the members of the House some slack and frankly think its time to cool down the negative rhetoric. There are several trolls on the boards right now so you can expect inciting language there. But though we are a little better than the ignorant protesters in DC (as we speak calling John Lewis the N word and Barney Frank F) I believe it is time to sit back in a seemly fashion and enjoy well deserved credit for holding to our truths. .

Obama has disappointed us. He is constitutionally a conservative. We didn't expect that. He began the HIR miserably. We have seen the Senate Blue Dogs and religious fundamentalists turn the process over to the greedy and the fanatics. But you know in the end they didn't have all the votes.

Those who believe mostly as we do never had the votes either. We can rightly shout that we never got much respect.

But one thing our side in the House got is this speech, this "government expression" that this is about people and about making moral choices. Do you think this is the speech Obama would have made or did make for the Max Baccus group?

Hypocrites? Yes many, Is the bill. fair? Will it solve much? Nope, In fact we can hope for the failures to prove us right soon.

But what history will record is this articulation of a message and I am proud of.it.. Johnson didn't cure the sickness of racism when he said "We shall overcome." But he did send the message that the power of the government is on the side of those who bring solutions.

It is the moral power of the government to enunciate the universal moral principles that so terrifies the GOP, the Libertarians and The Tea baggers.

I have no notion of how hypocritical Obama is but our side forced him to say the right things, to send the message. We should be proud.

If you are looking for a sense of victory just look at the shoddy the GOP. They are pitiful.
