Flipped to C-SPAN in time to see congressman Steve King of Iowa pointed out that the SCHIP program, which seeks to provide federal subsidy for health insurance for children of low income families, if allow to raise the income ceiling for eligibility to 400% of federal poverty level, would make 75,000 families in America who are subjected to the Alternative Minimum Tax qualified for SCHIP. So you are subjected to a federal income tax that is created to target the rich, but qualified for federal subsidy for your children's health insurance. Can the Democrats be anymore ridiculous than that? I wouldn't doubt.

I had a great time last week on a 5-day Caribbean cruise with a whole bunch of singles from my church. We had shore excursion in Cozumel and Progreso, Mexico. I now understand what people are talking about when they talk about clear water of the Caribbean that you can see the bottom. It's a beautiful turquoise color. We went snorkeling in Cozumel, went to see the Mayan ruins in Progreso and shopping in both. I wouldn't mind having a vacation home in Cozumel.
