Obama Healthcare

I am visiting an influential baptist church. It is a church with political and civic leaders. Janotors and parking attendants. Despite advanced degrees the bulletin is full of advice for finding a job.

At one point in the service the pastor mentioned that one of its deacons would be leaving after the service to go to a hospital. Going to a hospital to visit his 27 year old son. His young man of a son who has learned he has a year to live with a rare incurable kidney cancer.

The church congregation embraced the stoic deacon. All were moved to tears.
Another deacon beseeched the God they love to provide some sort of solace. And with that they prayed for all those in the nations capitol who are battling over healthcare. For this group healthcare is not a political game.
