Senator Nelson will make us all smile if Health care is sorted out
For months and months and months and MONTHS, the nation has suffered through a never-ending health care debate.
Thankfully, we at USDemocrazy have decent health coverage. This is fortunate as we are suffering from aneurysms, ulcers, night sweats, strokes, and convulsions (due in large part to our general lack of exercise, caused by our non-stop monitoring of the health care debate).
But today, we can boldly announce there might be a tentative chance of an unconfirmed possibility that the Health care debate will (kinda/sorta/maybe) be all over!

We at USDemocrazy don’t know much. But we do know when to shut up and listen to someone who knows what he/she’s talking about.

In the first video above, we asked him tell us about the rare sighting of a moderate in Washington DC.
In the second, below he tells us about the challenges facing the Republicans in the 2012 Presidential elections (Yes, they will be here in NO TIME!).
Stayed tuned for more brilliant takes from Dr Schaller in the days ahead… including his insight to The Colbert Show!

You don’t mess with this owl: Talk about one tough bird. Police in southern Indiana said a great horned owl flew through the pre-dawn darkness into the front of a moving Ford F-250 pickup truck — and survived even as the collision mangled the truck’s radiator.
Politics part… Senate Finance Committee has approved the health care reform bill on a 14-9 vote, with Sen. Olympia Snowe the only Republican who voted “yes.”
Russia says “Nyet”… “Russia Resists U.S. Position on Sanctions for Iran”
