All I Want for Christmas...

Not my two front teeth--a health care plan.

Even if it limits abortion and lacks a public option (enriching the insurance companies), I'll take whatever we can get for two reasons:

1) to do justice (see Micah 6:8)

2) to make sure my own twenty-something kids can get health care.

They're out of school and no longer covered by our insurance, so if COBRA runs out before they all have jobs with benefits, we will be as desperate as the family described in this article in today's LA Times:
