Obama: US would go bankrupt without health changes
AFP – US President Barack Obama speaks on health insurance reform at the Portland Expo Center in Portland, … 11 mins ago WASHINGTON – President Barack Obama says he did a full court press for a health care system remake because "this country was going to go bankrupt."
At the same time, Obama said in a nationally broadcast interview Friday he isn't worried that his bold reach for a $1.3 trillion, 10-year makeover might cause his public approval ratings to plummet. He told CBS's "The Early Show" that forcing changes in the system was "the right thing to do."
The president also said he remains confident that "if you have a good policy and you're trying to do the right thing, over time the politics works out." He was asked about polls showing his own standings in descent and a continuing revulsion among some elements of the public over the sweeping health care measure.
Spiritual means that traditional religion doesn't appeal to me.
I perfer to answer that I'm spiritual but not a member of any specific religioin.
I don't believe I have to go to services in order to prove or express my belief.
I don't own a bible.I don't pray before every meal.And if I can do something to make someones life a little bit easier I take every opportunity to do so.
Even if it is a spoof when it comes to animals and children I become emotional.Heck I even cry when I watch sad movies on tv.I guess it's the price I pay for having feelings for others.
