Jesus and Healthcare
One common claim I hear from some liberal theologians, thinkers, and politicians is Jesus supported universal healthcare. Somehow, Jesus healing people gets equated with universal healthcare insurance. I’m never sure how that leap is made. If those liberals actually believed in Jesus’ healthcare methods and practiced them, I might be more convinced of their arguments. As it is, even if I grant…

Healthcare again… and yeah, I know, no one cares
The rolling out of the “Affordable” healthcare act continues to go unnoticed, and it continues to be predicted by the most optimistic of supporters as a near disaster. David Brooks points out a few of the messes HERE, and includes this conclusion from experts in the field, including supporters of Obama: They predict Obamacare will collapse and do serious damage to…

Some of the Issue of “Affordable” Healthcare
It’s too bad this thing gets so close to rolling out before people actually start talking about what I’ve known for three years. 1. This is NOT affordable. 2.

What have is lousy. If you need examples, I am a living one. So are other members of my family. Don’t get me started! 😉…

Healthcare Reform, the Kansas Jayhawks, and the Apocalypse
All was not lost on the weekend. Joe Mauer signed a long-term deal with the Twins. We’re pretty happy about that. That came hours before the final vote on healthcare “reform,” so it helped soften that blow. Couple that with the crushing defeat of the Kansas Jayhawks in the NCAA tournament, and, well, it’s a wonder the Apocalypse didn’t sweep…

More on Healthcare “Reform”
I have a tab on this blog with more thoughts on healthcare “reform,” but I needed to add this update from Chuck Colson. I know there are people applauding this legislation. It’s becoming the liberal version of “patriotism.” Remember the “old days” of the Iraq War when the liberals got upset when Republicans challenged their “patriotism” because they opposed the…
