I Agree with Barry

I'm sure you won't hear me say it very often, but I agree with the president: it's time for a vote on health care.

The bills in existence are unpopular with the public. In fact, the bills in existence scare the pee out of people. Word is, there aren't enough Democratic votes to pass any of them. So let's have the vote and throw them in the trash.

Our so-called "leaders" in Washington have spent a year on this issue. There are other things that need attention.

I'm for some health care reforms. But in order to get to them we have to get rid of the behemoth proposals. Let's have the vote; let's Kill Bill.

I recall a line from Glen Campbell's character in the movie True Grit. He said, "I only take one step at time. That's why God gave me two feet."
