| It's like an alien land here. If you live in the northeast, or any place else that gets a fair amount of snow, you will be familiar with the words "flashing" "ice dam" "cascading ice gutters" and you'll be familiar with what my local world, and the past few days, involve....DC is closed for the week, including all of Congress. Here in the Philadelphia region we received the second largest snowfall on record, and we are expecting an additional 12 to 18 inches tonight. There is not a good place to put it, and not all the region is dug out from the weekend. So having returned from a day of chipping, re-organizing snow piles, and calculating the approximate strength of the roof trusses relative to the snow stuck behind the chimney 30 feet up, I feel I've done everything I can so that my house will withstand one more blizzard onslaught. Maybe not, but I've done the best any vertically-challenged person can. So I sit down with my cup of great Keurig coffee and see something in my inbox I would never in my wildest dreams believed I would. The subject line read: Republicans for Single Payer
I am not making this up. Tag line: Single-Payer is a Conservative Value
Again, I am not making this up, you can view their site here. If you look at their site, and you're familiar with Single Payer, you won't see anything new in terms of the reasons for implementation, nor the sources cited, except for the parts about Republican support. Gee, maybe there is a place for bipartisanship. |
