When I was a kid, I used to watch this show called "Gospel Bill." I don't know why, and I don't remember very much about it, but I know that I loooooved this show. There was a cowboy, I know that. Gospel Bill was a cowboy, I think, and interacted with other cowboys, and a good bet would be that the show included some sort of Bible-based teaching woven into a country western theme. I am pretty sure that I could identify Gospel Bill in a line up if I saw him today. But that's it, really.
I'm just telling you this so when I say that today, when I opened up my email and saw the day's headlines and one of them said "Health Care Bill," you will understand the sudden image that popped into my head of a doctor wearing a cowboy hat and spurs on his boots. And although I have been in the States for two months now, and have been listening to the seemingly eeeeeeeendless and ugly debate raging about health care, it still took me a few minutes before I actually realized that Health Care Bill is not a new children's show about a cowboy doctor.
But wouldn't it be awesome if it was?
