PAGING DR. OBAMA! ER STAT!
Gotta love it.
Obama says prostate cancer can be diagnosed by more colonoscopies. NOT. Obama says that instead of giving a 100 year old active person a pacemaker, they should give her a pain pill. (Psssssssst. Pain pills don't work on irregular heartbeats.) He sez we need to do a breathalyzer on a child asthma patient. Lots more, but I'm busy right now. Steve |

We have several self employed dock walker types around here who aren't going to get tested because they have no insurance. And we will pay if and when they get sick. To his critics, Obama must say everything perfectly and in the proper order. They probably weren't critical of Bush's mangling of his speeches. |

He sez we need to do a breathalyzer on a child asthma patient. Lots more, but I'm busy right now. Steve When my father was 80, he had a hip replaced, under Bozomacare I suspect they would not do so because an 80 yr old prob would not live long enough to get any use out of it. By his 86th b-day, he had worn the first replacement out (too much adventure travel like hiking up volcanoes etc) and had it replaced again which I am sure BozomaCare would not do. By 88 he suddenly developed Parkinsons for which I suspect Bozomacare would do very little. His solution to keep up his ability to walk as long as possible was to literally take up a lot more walking. By 91, had to use a walker but still goes a pretty good distance every day. At 92, sudden heart probs and I suspect a BozomaCare death panel would sentence him to death. Without BozomaCare, he will prob live to be 100. His health care is a combo of VA, private and medicare. He has some sort of pvt insurance that very happily pays him to stay out of a nursing home. This was a nursing home policy my parents bought about 20 yrs ago but I do not have all the details. The policy pays if they go into a nursing home but also pays somehow if they stay out of one when they have probs. |

Steve I'll counter with this, which was released an hour ago: WASHINGTON (AFP) – Former US homeland security chief Tom Ridge charges in a new book that top aides to then-president George W. Bush pressured him to raise the "terror alert" level on the eve of the November 2004 US election. Then defense secretary Donald Rumsfeld and attorney general John Ashcroft pushed him to elevate the color-coded threat level, but Ridge refused, according to a summary from his publisher, Thomas Dunne Books. "After that episode, I knew I had to follow through with my plans to leave the federal government for the private sector," Ridge is quoting as writing in "The Test of Our Times: America Under Siege... And How We Can Be Safe Again. " Some of Bush's critics had repeatedly questioned whether the administration was using warnings of a possible attack to blunt the political damage from the unpopular Iraq war by shifting the debate to the broader "war on terrorism," which had wide popular appeal. Ridge, a former governor of Pennsylvania, was the first secretary of the US Department of Homeland Security that the US Congress created in response to the September 11, 2001 terrorist strikes. |

Steve Not to mention lying in almost everyone of them, and starting a war on false pretenses and not having a plan to pay for it. Here's some lying: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nE2SdF1fN4s I'd counter with Obama's lies, but some people have problems with bandwidth and are on dialups. Some people have set limits on the size of posts they will download. Some servers put a limit on them, too. The first priority is what is happening today, Jim. Steve I'll counter with this, which was released an hour ago: WASHINGTON (AFP) – Former US homeland security chief Tom Ridge charges in a new book that top aides to then-president George W. Bush pressured him to raise the "terror alert" level on the eve of the November 2004 US election. Then defense secretary Donald Rumsfeld and attorney general John Ashcroft pushed him to elevate the color-coded threat level, but Ridge refused, according to a summary from his publisher, Thomas Dunne Books. "After that episode, I knew I had to follow through with my plans to leave the federal government for the private sector," Ridge is quoting as writing in "The Test of Our Times: America Under Siege... And How We Can Be Safe Again. " Some of Bush's critics had repeatedly questioned whether the administration was using warnings of a possible attack to blunt the political damage from the unpopular Iraq war by shifting the debate to the broader "war on terrorism," which had wide popular appeal. Ridge, a former governor of Pennsylvania, was the first secretary of the US Department of Homeland Security that the US Congress created in response to the September 11, 2001 terrorist strikes. That's very ......... yawn .......... interesting ...... yawn ............ history, Jim .......... yawn .............. ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ This is a news story that was released today. Is it history? Yes, can we learn from history? Not all of us. Obviously ignoring the LIES of the Bush administration makes you feel better about throwing stones at Obama. Go ahead and pretend Bush didn't manipulate the election with LIES. Lies of the worst kind. Should make even YOU ashamed to have supported him. Keep campaigning for the special interests, they need your support. The insurance industry is spending huge amounts of money to defeat health insurance reform, and their money is well spent, isn't it? I think so, and want to be a poster child. If health care were in the state they want it to be during the last ten years, I would have been dead nine. One of those who are too old to be worth the trouble and expense. Steve |

"When my father was 80, he had a hip replaced, under Bozomacare I suspect they would not do so because an 80 yr old prob would not live long enough to get any use out of it." This is the sort of strawman fear mongering that has no basis in reality but, like Limbaugh, if you can construct that strawman and create some circular references, you're home free with a baseless attack on whomever. Logic is on display for sure, bassackwards as it might be. |
