I just had to blog this

The issue is important, but it was the NAACP spokesperson’s name that made me want to blog about it:
The state’s NAACP chapter voted its opposition this week to a bill affectionately called the “Nursing Home Patient Protection Act of 2008.”
“This legislation is a slap in the face to some of the weakest members of our society, and the NAACP is bitterly opposed to it,” said Gloria Sweet-Love, the NAACP’s state chapter president. “Our parents and grandparents stood up for our rights and now we must stand up for theirs. The nursing home industry is demonstrating how far it will go to protect itself, even if it means stomping on the dignity of the people it should be helping.”
