The real date that will live in infamy....

PS-I happened to notice what today is and I was struck with the irony.

I'm here because there were people dedicated to keeping me alive. However there are "doctors" out there dedicated to making others dead. Was the difference that I was a "person" and they are not? It shouldn't after all-"a person's a person, no matter how small"- (and if the widow of Dr. Seuss doesn't like the line being used for a pro-life stand; too bad-he shouldn't have written it!) and science has shown that an embryo is a person.

So if we are to have true health care reform-shouldn't it be dedicated to making sure all are born alive and that they have the right to as long and healthy a life that they should have? If not, then when each person is born, along with our social security number, should they assign us a cemetary plot as well?

So much for my "ed"-itoral. I'll get off the soapbox now...and get ready for the rest of my day.....
