I predict here and now that should the Congress pass health care reform, that this political combination will be seen for decades and centuries to come, and as long as there is a place called the United States of America as having forged a pact that changed the course, fortunes and destiny of the American people.
No one should doubt that in the past that we have had great Presidents, and even dynamic and effective leaders in both the House and Senate, but none of those leaderships pacts of the past was able to or will have accomplished what these three leaders will have accomplished in the face of unrivaled and unparalleled and intensely organized opposition from the entrenched interest of the affected industries and the Republican Party, to hold their caucus together and to deliver legislation and laws that will profoundly benefit all Americans.
President Obama, Speaker Pelosi, Leader Reid and the Democratic Party will have overcome organized lobbying from powerful industry groups and companies, mean spirited rumors, out right lies, deliberate distortions, half truths, racism ,bigotry, character assassinations, defections, political party switches, single issue voting Senators and Congressmen, and the influence of the fanatical anti abortionist, even right wing Evangelical and Fundamental Religious blocks to pass health care and insurance reform.
They are on the cusp of finally bringing America into the 21st century when it comes to providing basic health care and insurance reform for America and the American people.
I salute them.
