Missouri Governor Bob Holden became an American patriot on Friday. He officially became one of the very few "Good Guys" left in U.S. politics.
Laura Meckler's Saturday AP piece on the Bush administration's dismantling of Medicaid contained this quote:
" 'I cannot in good conscience support a Medicaid reform proposal that does not include adequate protections for the population we serve,' Missouri Gov. Bob Holden, a Democrat, said Friday."
"Serve?"
When did politics become about "service" and representing constituents? When did it become about anything other than greed, corruption, self-interest and power?
This is just waaay too radical a notion.
Holden must be one of those "old school" guys. Not progressive, or forward-looking, like the rest of us.
Get Angry! Have your say. Click here to write your elected officials now!
