Most of you people pick a side and root for them like a sports team. The media keeps you pointing fingers at the 'other side' like puppets. When will you people figure out the left/right illusion is nothing more than divide and conquer? Neither party ever does anything they said they were going to do when they were the 'out' party once they get in, but most of you continue to fall for this nonsense. it's incredible. And scary. This country is finished.

Well it passed, how disappointing..

I wonder if there is still hope for Alan Grayson's single payer bill (Probably not).

As a previous poster stated, you can expect a huge leap in insurance and pharmaceutical stocks tomorrow. Probably triple digit gains before midday.

Bend over and prepare to take it up the backside. A whole slew of new taxes are coming to a town near you!

I am feeling bittersweet right now. Both happy and sad. Both worried and relieved.

May this country stay prosperous.
