THIS WILL BE A WEEKEND TO REMEMBER.  THIS WILL BE A WEEKEND THAT COULD COST US ALL A LOT OF MONEY.  IT ALL DEPENDS ON CONGRESS AND THE DISPOSITION OF THE HEALTH CARE ISSUE.  APPARENTLY ALL KINDS OF FINANCIAL REWARDS ARE BEING OFFERED TO CONGRESSMEN WHOSE VOTE IS NEEDED TO PASS THE BILL.  THE VOTE WILL NOT BE ON THE BILL ITSELF, BUT ON A BILL THAT CHANGES ITEMS IN THE BILL ITSELF.  ITS ALL CONFUSING TO US, BUT ITS OUR MONEY AT STAKE.  IF IT PASSES, YOU WILL BE REQUIRED TO PURCHASE SOME SORT OF HEALTH COVERAGE, OR PAY A FINE FOR NOT HAVING COVERAGE.  WHO KNOWS WHAT THE EVENTUAL COST WILL BE.  

MEANWHILE A NEW IMMIGRATION BILL IS WAITING IN THE WINGS TO UNDERGO THE SAME SORT OF SCRUTINY.

TAKE HEART, THE ELECTION FOR ALL CONGRESSMEN AND CONGRESSWOMEN IS COMING IN NOVEMBER, ALONG WITH ONE THIRD OF THE SENATE.  I'M LOOKING FORWARD TO THAT, AREN'T YOU?
