A Few Short Thoughts on relatively recent political news

I wake up most mornings to NPR news on my clock radio. One of the places that I work, the bartender like to turn the TV to Fox News at about the time that Glen Beck is on. I have heard a bit about the health care debate from both ends of the political spectrum, I think.


Here's my take:

It reminds me of the second verse of the Underdog theme song:

When in this world the headlines read of those whose hearts are filled with greed,
Who rob and steel from those in need,
To right this wrong with blinding speed goes
Underdog!

Anyways, I think both the liberals and the conservatives would relate those words to the health care issue, but have strongly different definitions of need, greed, and rob.
