[Vision2020] Hope for Healing? Well, not exactly

[Carl Westberg]

When I originally posted this, I almost used the term "lasagna-eaters", or 
perhaps "hockey fans" instead of "Republican".  Substitute one or both of 
those terms for Republican, and I'm sure no one will be insulted, unless 
you're a lasagna eating hockey fan...in which case there are no doubt 
"groups" that can help you.
