Wisdom worth sharing, words worth remembering.
Breast cancer is not just a disease that strikes at women. It strikes at the very heart of who we are as women: how others perceive us how we perceive ourselves how we live work and raise our families-or whether we do these things at all.
I have to admit like so many women I always knew there was a chance. But like so many women I never thought it would be me. I never thought I'd hear those devastating words: 'You have breast cancer.'
I'm so proud to represent the people of South Florida. I was so honored when President Obama asked me to serve as chair of the Democratic Party. But there's one job I'm even more proud of and that's being a mom to my three kids Rebecca Jake and Shelby.
We've been sitting at the compromise table for a long time. We're just waiting for that cold chair to be warmed up by the Republican leadership. They still have time to do the right thing and be responsible. They just seem to be moving further and further away from it.
Aren't we at the point where the closer we get to chaos the more concern that there should be about coming to the table and compromising with Democrats? This is not leadership. This is almost like dictatorship.
Democrats are going to proudly run on the fact that we turned the economy around. It was our policies under President Obama's leadership through the Recovery Act through investing in the automobile industry.
Unfortunately the Republican leadership in the House right now seems to have been strangled by the tea party.
The fact is when it comes to economic leadership the Republicans have nothing to brag about. This isn't what the American people want. They want to see progress that works for them.
We're going to need to absorb some pain. The Republicans want to pile all the pain on people who can least afford it and the middle class and Democrats under his leadership want to make sure that we can address deficit reduction and continue to make investments and shared sacrifice is going to be imperative in order to be able to do that.
When President Obama passed health care reform it was personal! And when Governor Romney says he would repeal Obamacare and put insurance companies back in charge of a woman's health that's personal too.
We can never ever say it enough: every woman – especially every young woman-has to take charge of her health… and do what's right for her!
Both referred to the Affordable Care Act which is the accurate title of the health care reform law as 'Obamacare.' That is a disparaging reference to the President of the United States it is meant as a disparaging reference to the President of the United States.
