HAYYYYY!! OK ........ I'm just full of questions today Barbie! Do you have the answers?
1. I read an article here, I read an article there. I listen to this commentator and check out that blog. And still, I can not understand the health plan that Obama is trying to create. This plan will be an option, but in the end, will ultimately hurt those whom the insurance companies do not want in the first place? All I know is that my premiums seem to be increasing every six months! Why Barbie? And while you are answering that question, can you explain this new health plan in 4 or 5 sentences? Remember that I'm not dumb [after all, I did see The Da Vinci Code], but need a little help.
2. I finally saw Kathy Griffin's recent episode of MY LIFE ON THE D-LIST, the one where she protests Proposition 8 in California. Kathy's outspoken stand re-confirmed my feelings of why she is such a talent and DIVA! Love her! But I was amazed at the young people she interviewed, who had little to no idea who Matthew Shepard was, let alone events like Stonewall. Matthew was killed less than 11 years ago, and these kids had no clue. Oh Barbie, what is going on with these youngsters, 29 and younger, who have no sense of history, style, or understanding why Nellie Olsen was such an important character on tv?
And Barbie, before you act like you are above such a question, NEWSFLASH FROM THE PLANET OF DUH, fewer and fewer little girls are playing with you nowdays. Your current lifestyle and that dream home will depend on the loyalty of gay men!
3. Oh Barbie, Empress of Style .. who told the world that it was ok for the return of 80's fashion? When I was at the mall last week, I walked past store window upon store window with mannequins wearing LEGGINGS! What is next? White sequined gloves [oops. already seen those] and headbands! The only good thing to come out of the 80's was Madonna and Miss Ross' EATEN ALIVE, SWEPT AWAY AND WORKIN' OVERTIME albums, leave the rest to history.
4. And before I go Barbie .. Who do you think would win in a cage match? Mariah or Eminem? Will Michael Jackson's autopsy results ever be revealed? And finally, why is there some type of cable cord across my front yard? And I don't even have cable!
Meanwhile, back at the Hall of Justice ........

He hasn't proposed one per se.
He merely said he wanted to see congress send him a bill that 1) Had health care coverage that would include everyone 2) Prevented insurance companies from penalizing customers for having a preexisting conditions 3) Controlled the costs directly through regulation 4) Controlled costs indirectly through competition by having an option for people buying their own insurance to be able to buy a low cost policy from the government.
The reason it is confusing is because congress currently has five different versions of the bill, all different, and failed to get them all to agree before they went on recess. So you won't find a definitive answer on what is the "Obama Plan."
I find it interesting that the generally favorable story I get in liberal California is so different from the decidedly scary story you get in conservative Georgia. Everyone is spinning this politically to try and score points. Who knows what we will get in the end.
