The main consideration in imposing the bill should be the the welfare of the majority, and hopefully that whats gonna happen as we talk about the health care reform issue. Anyway did you know that Press Secretary Robert Gibbs was absolutely right to jump on the Rush Limbaugh Haiti comments. Though the boorish conservative polemicist did advocate donating to the Red Cross, he also said that we donated enough from our taxes. He failed to address that foreign aid is a small part of the federal budget, amounting to little, and the Haiti Earthquake is going to need more than a couple of payday loans to patch up. Even though he did advocate that people donate, during these sorts of things, people like Limbaugh really don't add anything constructive at all – he usually doesn't anyway.
