House Republican Representative, Joe Wilson yelled out, “You lie!!!’ in the chambers during the address last Wednesday. He, and probably rightfully apologized the President Obama and Vice-President Joe Biden. They accepted and agreed to “move forward” in the “debate”. Interesting word, “debate”. Throughout his campaign and throughout the 8 months serving, President Obama has consistently “said”, he is will and welcomes legitimate debate on the various issues on the table. Yet, even in his 29^th speech on the “Health Care” issue, making that assertion, he qualifies it with not being willing to address political ideology or rhetoric. To his credit, he did offer some lip service to medical malpractice and the Public Option as a “small part” of the reform. I’m still wondering when, where and with who is he “willing” to have this “legitimate debate”. Naturally, the partisanship and political ideologies are allowed to be asserted by Democrats. They are “legitimate” and germane to the issue. It seems, however, that opposition in general to those assertions aren’t legitimate and are mere ideological retorts. Even Town Hall events where citizens express their concerns about this issue and the mounting expenses being generated by the administration are being scoffed at and reduced to the ranting of ideology, anti-progress, status quo, doubters of his legitimacy to the office, and my absolute favorite, racists. It could “never” be that there are people, some who even supported him and voted for him, just don’t think the ideas stink and believe that there is a more efficient way to correct the Medical Insurance problem.

          The one thing that all seem to agree with, and it has been agreed for decades, is that Health Care is a problem. It was/is well intentioned, but, like Marxism, works well in theory and not so well in practice. Like most ideas and programs government run, the “incidental” of how to pay for it becomes the rub, or in this case, a third rail. Magnifying the heart felt intent and establishing some moral imperative to fulfillment, like trying to establish fairness, always produces an “un”fairness SOMEWHERE as, what is now becoming an accepted condition, unintended consequences. These unintended consequences are becoming excusable in favor of the “intent”. Well that’s easy enough. It’s not the legislature’s money being provided to fulfill these “moral imperatives”. This is where the administration, the Democrat majority in the legislature and special interest groups who have taken up residence in the White House and Congress Chambers have given a brand new meaning to “fuzzy math”.

          The thickening clouds of protest have been initialized. It was one thing when it was just Republicans and Conservatives stirring the air. It is rapidly becoming a non-left, non right, non Republican and non Democrat objection to what is been injected into process. It is turning out that the administration, the congress and the compliant media spins gears are locking. What once worked as reasoning and response to objections, such as race, ideology and political agendas are losing traction and a little “common sense” is finding its way into the discussion. They shouldn’t have toyed with Mathematics. Unlike “them”, it “is” consistent.  Numbers can’t lie. President Obama did, has and is. Where it was pointed out may have some protocols attached to the process that doesn’t allow it being said to his face, but none the less is true.
