Because of their role as caretakers for their elderly parents, the healthcare debate has moved many Baby Boomers, whatever their nominal political affiliation, to the Center.
Readers might find much to chew on in "A Daughter Among Daughters Reaps Scorn," about an accountant whose life has been turned upside down by her decision to care for her aged Mom and Dad:
"When her elderly parents became ill, she gave up her job, her security, and her comfortable middle-class existence. If something isn’t done soon, she says, Baby Boomers will become the New Poor."

Obama's "healthcare reform" is the biggest fraud and scam yet perpetuated against the American people. Healthcare is nothing but a huge power-grab to pay off cronies and the "chosen few" such as General Electric (GE).
Did you notice that GE is already running television commercials praising how they're going to "help" facilitate healthcare? GE's commercial of the guy sitting in his underwear while about 200 people are staring at him says it all. Do you want ALL your medical records available to ANYONE that can hack a computer?

Camp David Bi-partisianship Summit (Obama and the GOP Leadership). See dicussion below.
Obama: I will be having a ham sandwich today.
The Republicans (John "BONER"):
I cannot support the bread on this sandwich. President Obama should have consulted with me on whether to eat wheat or white bread. This is not bi-partisianship. The ham is too salty. Ordering the lettuce is socialist and violates the constitution. The president should have chosen ranch dressing instead of italian dressing. I am against Obama jamming down that bacon down our throats. Pelosi, Reid and Obama are trying to force this ham sandwich down our throats and the American people are not going to stand for this. I intend to fillerbuster this breakfast.
Scott Brown: And I will be the 41st vote!
Sarah Palin:
I think Obama should play the "beef card" if he want to get re-elected. Obama was reading a telepromter while to order the menu items for his ham sandwich. Obama pals around with lettuce, fries, and ketchup.
Rush Limbaugh:
Ordering a ham sandwich seems like reparations for the pork farmers.
Juan (John) McCain: The treasury secretary mistakenly told me that it was not a ham sandwich.
Liz Cheney: Obama needs to stop apologizing to ham sandwiches.
Dick Cheney: The Obama administration is against enhance interrogations for pigs, that are used on ham sandwiches.
Sean Hannity:
The Reverend Jeremiah Wright and Acorn has spent billions of taxpayer money on ham sandwiches. Bill Ayers must also like easting ham sandwiches. The liberal socialists do not want beef to suceed.
Fox News (Propaganda Arm of the RNC): Breaking News....Obama orders a ham sandwich from ACORN and Jeremiah Wright. There's a terrorist between the bread!
Dick Morris: I wish my prostitute has eaten a ham sandwich, that way I would not have been caught.
Sean O'Keefe and Hannah Giles (you know, the under cover ACORN reporters):
O'Keefe: Hannah, can you get that camera in Obama's mouth? I don't think his eating a ham sandwich.
Giles: Ok, let me get my hooker out fit on. Was the pig they used for that sandwich a member of ACORN?
Obama:
Ok, in order to garner transparency, I will be posting the ham sandwich menu on the internet at www.whitehouse.gov, so that my GOP friends can review it within a 72 hour time frame.
BI-PARTISIANSHIP AT ITS BEST.
