Stop being picky, just pass a health care bill

Significant health care reform is closer to reality than it has been in decades. For the uninsured, those with existing medical conditions, seniors in the prescription gap, it can't come too soon.
Health care reform is like remodeling a house. As the house grows older and the family does, too, changes need to be made. Today is a good time for remodeling. Skilled labor is available and is interested in smaller projects. If I let this opportunity pass by, it may be a long time before it comes again.
Pass the health care reform bill now - the House or Senate version. I'm not fussy. Let's remodel.
