on 9/11 we lost over 3000 people. Congress came together quickly to act

[The Straight Story]

And passed some legislation to deal with it all (even if it was something we did not agree with) - a whole new dept was created, Homeland Security.

More people than that die here annually from issues with health care, and yet it seems folks are going slow as all hell (and have been since the 90's) to get something done about the issue.

Banks needed a bailout? Done quickly.

More war funding needed? No problem. Done as soon as needed to keep wars going.

People need health care? We will get back to you, gotta take our time with it.

Obama is just one person in all this - we have a whole congress who sits back and ponders all of this when it comes to health care and money and how it might affect those poor companies who could lose money through some competition.

Bailout the folks who need health care NOW. And if you don't, best answer us as to why you drag your feet on helping the poor but rush to do so for the rich and the defense complex.
