“If you can’t love yourself, how the hell you gonna love somebody else?” - RuPaul - - - - - - - - - - - “if by a "Liberal" they mean someone who looks ahead and not behind, someone who welcomes new ideas without rigid reactions, someone who cares about the welfare of the people -- their health, their housing, their schools, their jobs, their civil rights, and their civil liberties -- someone who believes we can break through the stalemate and suspicions that grip us in our policies abroad, if that is what they mean by a "Liberal," then I'm proud to say I'm a "Liberal.” - John F. Kennedy - - - - - - - - - - - - “Imagine finding someone you love more than anything in the world, who you would risk your life for but couldn’t marry. And you couldn’t have that special day the way your friends do – you know, wear the ring on your finger and have it mean the same thing as everybody else. Just put yourself in that person’s shoes. It makes me feel sick to my stomach …. When I shared a picture of my tattoo on my Twitter page and said, ‘ALL LOVE is equal,’ a lot of people mocked me – they said, ‘What happened to you? You used to be a Christian girl!’ And I said, ‘Well, if you were a true Christian, you would have your facts straight. Christianity is about love.’ The debate resulted in a lot of threats and hate mail to people who agreed and disagreed with me. At one point I had to say, ‘Dude, everyone lay off.’ Can’t people have friendly debates about sensitive topics without it turning into unnecessary threats?” - Pop star Miley Cyrus on her marriage equality tattoo - - - - - - - - - - -

I Am Obamacare!

Facebook friend Jason Johnson posted this image on his FB wall yesterday, and I had to share it. I don't think Republicans understand the importance of what they call "Obamacare". 

They think its all fun and games, but look at the document below you bumbling bozos, and call me a socialist - I don't care! You will be hurting a lot of people when you or the Supreme Court try to remove the new Healthcare law.

Please feel free to share this with your friends and family.  If you want to share the link, that's fine. Or if you want to take the images and share them on your wall, I'm fine with that too.  We need to spread the message.

Politics 101: Why Is Health Care So Expensive? and The Real Reasons Why It Costs So Much

Back in April I introduced you to the first part of "Why Your Stitches Cost $1,500: A Look at The Absurd Health Care Costs in America." Today, I bring you the 2nd part.

Let me break it down for you... You have Myths, which Republicans try to feed you day in, and day out.  And you have Truths, which Democrats try to show you, but you refuse to listen to them. If you continue to elect people into office that feed you lies, beyond lies, to where it becomes really difficult to repair; Then when it comes time to repair all the damage that's been done - our Democrats are blamed for not fixing it fast enough.  Why is it there job to repair what Republicans screwed up to begin with?  Because Democrats care for the average American worker. You have a choice, make it.

In the chart below, you will see four big myths "people often cite, but are actually incorrect."
After the jump, you will find "The Real Reasons Why Health Care Costs So Much."

Show Me Your Teeth

It's a sad fact, but millions of people in this country have no dental insurance, and those who do, don't use it.  I'm the perfect example.  I've had dental insurance for as long as I can remember, but I haven't seen a dentist in the same amount of time.  I may have only gone once, but that was years ago.  I brush my teeth everyday, but I don't floss, and brush regularly as I should.  Visiting a dentist is something both Ryan and I will have to do once we get out of debt, which isn't too far away.
