Health Care

A Video From Puerto Rico

5 Comments

Check out a short video clip from President David Rolf of my union, SEIU Healthcare 775 NW. Go to www.myseiuhealthcare.org and click on the featured journal to watch it.

I do not know what the vote on this resolution was, but I know it is needed. As I have said time and again, the time will come for nearly each and every one of us when we will need some kind of care. And the home care industry is going to have to grow along with the times. What legacy can we leave for the workers and clients in the future?

Here is a question for other home care workers reading this…
If you had a magic wand that could change home care into your “dream job” what would it be like? Seriously, I want to see how many of us have the same kinds of issues.

Hello Calitics Friends,

Today is a new day in America. I am confident that we will all come together and unite behind our nominee Barack Obama – and tonight pledge my DNC superdelegate vote and my volunteer commitment to help win back the White House for the American people and elect President Barack Obama.

Visit my post about President Barack Obama on HuffingtonPost at http://www.huffingtonpost.com/…

and feel welcome to leave a comment.

TONIGHT I’ll be discussing this historic moment on Air America at 930PM CA time; 1230AM Eastern on “This is America with John Elliott”. We will take your calls and emails so please feel welcome to tune in via computer at

Open Thread: 2nd Primary Election Night

5 Comments

Ok, I think some people may have some random things to say and no thread to say them in as we wait for the CA polls to close.

I will start.  Good lord McCain put up a stinker today.  The advance job was terrible.  The old white man candidates, spoke roboticly to a lackluster all white crowd waving all white signs.

And yes we finally have a nominee.  Let the healing and unifying begin.

[UPDATE] FYI Charlie Brown will be liveblogging at FDL tonight starting around 8 PM.

[UPDATE by Dave] OK, this is hilarious.

He literally swept McCain off the screen.  Talk about your foreshadowing.
