President Obama has been yelling “Fix-HealthCare!” as he travels around the world to parlez with world leaders. “Its all good baby, I won that Nobel Peace Prize” is surely how he begins at least some of the meetings. Meanwhile, back here in U.S. Congress, whose members don’t blink without considering the re-election ramifications of said eye movement, are left to their own devices. There is no bully in this pulpit. Only a gaunt, gentil man who was raised by women and who’s wife is taller than him.

When they eventually pass something related to healthcare (make no mistake, it will not be reform) there will be high-fives and victory celebrations and healthcare will still cost a fortune. The change we can believe in was only a visual.
