Health care reform, finally.

It's been another salient week for Animal Farm/1984. All animals are created equal, but some are more equal than others (what is increased government control but a way for a decreased number of people making decisions for the rest of us?). And words like "health care" and "reform" are growing more Orwellian by the hour. Condoning violence against GWBush gets pushed down the memory hole, and indictments of fake hate and racism on the part of the Tea Party get bandied about with abandon. The Obama plan seems to be part "two minutes hate" and part hoping that we'll all embrace Big Brother and get on with it. Imagine a boot stamping on a human face, forever. Imagine you liking it.

Here's where I'm at with it. Let's all think what we will and say what we want. Live and let live. You're free to think it's a good idea to spend someone else's money constraining someone else's choices (when did liberals fall in love with the government they were always so mad at? Oh, just mad that they weren't the ones in control? Makes sense now). You may think about control, and talk about it, too. But don't try to control me. I am free. Don't tread on me.
