You realize that someday “Obamacare” won’t be spoken as a pejorative.  It will used the same way we say “medicare”.  It will be celebrated as that first step toward universal coverage in this country.

Despite all the other things going on in my life right now, this one thing has made me happy, and given me some hope that there is a way past the divisive politics to a place where we think about the good of the country and her citizens — all of them.
