What was the last time you spoke to a "regular" American, Rep Shadegg?"

My entire post near the beginning of this thread was an account of Congressman Shaddegg talking to me, A regular American.

I do remodeling for a living, I have no health insurance, I have 3 kids in college, which I am paying for, I am a veteran of Gulf War 1, I am white, I am Christian, Baptist to be exact, I pay taxes, I go to church, I own guns, I like honest and moral people, but liars and theives, I hold in contempt. How much more regular can you get?

So Nancy Pelosi and President Obama are adamant that Congress pass their health care bill. They’ve dismissed the August protesters and are pushing for passage as soon as possible. But, what does this mean for the average American (we’ll call her Mary Smith), a single mother of two struggling to get by in a down economy. She hears terms like “individual mandate,” “employer mandate,” and “CBO score.” But none of this helps her understand what health care reform means for her.

Mary wants to help the uninsured, but why is...
