Last night was President Obama’s State of the Union address. There has been no shortage of people analyzing every word, every gesture, and every possible reaction. YAWN! I thought the State of the Union would be a perfect time for some real random fun. That’s right; it’s time for the triumphant comeback of “President Obama’s 500 Promises”!

Just when the postal carrier thought my letter writing escapades were over, I’m back with a new adventure addressing an old issue.

When Death comes to the House healthcare bill…

When we last left our intrepid heroine she was on page 143 of the 1018 page House healthcare bill. Let’s tune in….

Last week I announced I was accepting Stephen Colbert’s challenge to read the entire House healthcare reform bill. Well this is the first in a hopefully continuing series of posts chronicling my struggles and reactions in wading through this 1000+ page behemoth. Enjoy.

While catching up on my DVRed episodes of “The Daily Show” and “The Colbert Report” it was hard to miss that the big news, and comedy, of the day is the battle over healthcare reform. Obviously I have my opinions on the subject, and I understand and share many of the concerns of many Americans. Also, being the often mean-spirited person that I am, I’m greatly enjoying the comic stylings of Stewart and Colbert as they cover this issue. But then, on the August 10, 2009 episode of “The Colbert Report”, it happened.

Why topple Saddam Hussein’s regime only to go back to enacting his policies? Don’t ask me, ask the current Iraqi government.

Happy Fourth of July to American Buffet Readers!
