Uh oh.

Through the wonders of the archives on TOTV, I just got rewound in this thread from the dark and dreary winter months when I could not resist posting on the topic of healthcare.

Not only am I in this thread, but within this thread, I had managed to reach back in and link yet another thread on the topic.

So I just read it all again. And you know what? Where my thoughts on my old posts are concerned, still, at this point, it's second verse same as the first -- or is it third verse same as the first? Who knows? I have lost track.

This topic remains a hot button with me.

Somebody needs to fix it, for all the reasons I have stated that are in this thread and within the thread within the thread.

My point has always been that so many I know are not looking for a free "ticket to ride." They just want to be able to buy"a ticket to ride" at a reasonable cost.

McCain has been talking a lot about helping small business. There is probably nothing that could help small business more than making access to healthcare affordable. Not taking healthcare over. Not forcing us into what the government thinks is best. But just figuring out affordable access for the backbone of this country who are finding their healthcare costs impossible.

There was a "What's your party?" thread on here awhile back.

I answered, "It was my party and I'll cry if I want to."

And while I am alluding to all those old song lyrics, as I am wont to do from time to time, just let me tell you right where I am right now where the upcoming election is concerned.

"Nowhere To Run. Nowhere To Hide."

I sure hope I get it figured out by November.

I will not pretend to be remotely able to discuss the war. But I do understand that the economy has lost its legs. Or has it been hamstrung?

(Oh, and when I show up on here again, I am going to try really hard to stay away from political discussion. But when I saw the rewind, I just had to jump in and do an update. Although I guess it really was not an update. And I guess I got rewound in more ways than one.)
