It's not about health care
NY Times columnist Frank Rich has published a piece stating one of my beliefs about the current state of political and social unrest, only done so much more eloquently than I could have. Essentially, it's not REALLY about health care; it's about white male power being redistributed to others.
"The conjunction of a black president and a female speaker of the House — topped off by a wise Latina on the Supreme Court and a powerful gay Congressional committee chairman — would sow fears of disenfranchisement among a dwindling and threatened minority in the country no matter what policies were in play"

I've yet to read the Rich piece, but if that's the gist of it, I couldn't agree more.
I'm so disgusted with our country right now.
