16. Today is like any other day. No different.

The ACA is a modest step forward, and altho' nothing even close to the change that's needed God knows that Dems have very few even of the most modest steps forward to count so a classification of today as something akin to Christmas is understandable. But "enjoy your stay" for quoting Teddy Roosevelt saying something so uncontroversial? Are you out of your mind??

Okay, newbie, The President just got the ACA implemented and 9.5 million people covered... Hekate Apr 2014 #1
