The passage of the US Health Bill is another line in the sand towards a truly democratic Christian US nation. By Christian, we are not talking about a non-sensical religion that believes in such nutty things like a god or life after death. By Christian we mean a philosophy of life that values living and turning the other cheek when faced with a bully or violence. Sure there are tens of millions of Americans who worship such fascists and stupid people like Ann Coulter, Sarah Palin, Rush Limbaugh and other self styled vile and selfish people. But the US culture is evolving and such radical mean and cruel positions that have been brought against minorities, gays, the poor, the disabled and the sick are losing traction. Will the US ever catch up with Canada and Europe. Likely not, but the US is the Jessica Simpson and Britney Spears to Meryl Streep or Kate Winslet. They are great to watch because its great to see even stupidity get rewarded.
Let the wiser half of the US pull its bumpkin sibling towards enlightenment. It is trying and stressful to watch but progress is there.
