Default The cost of boating just went up. Gas hits all-time high.

what i love about this is, when ira magaziner and hilary clintion
tried to get us universal health care


To which office was Hillary elected to in 1992?

Then what right did she have to make policy that would have destroyed the
healthcare system for 260,000,000 Americans with insurance so that
40,000,000 uninsured could get access?


I have a great Hillary story.

Back when she was put in "charge" (read Ira Magaziner was in charge -
Hillary was just his mouth piece), they had an open Town Meeting in
New London to solicite public comments. I was invited by Sam "The
Man" Gedenjson who was then the Congressman from the 2nd District
which included my town. (I was invited by virtue of some veterens
work I had some with Sam and the VA - probably the only thing he ever
did as a Congressman that actually had some impact).

So, we're at the meeting, there about 150 people, about half senior
citizens. During the participatory part, this little old lady stands
up at the microphone and asked the following question (paraphrased).

"Can you tell me how your proposal will reduce my and my husband's
prescription costs, doctor's cost and my husbands stroke therapy
payments?"

This was Hillary's exact response.

"I only deal in policy, I don't deal in specifics".

Yep. Never made the news either. :)
