Tag….you it.
He is one of those people who would be enormously improved by death.
– Saki
Great article in today’s paper about universal health care by Dr. Bill Roy. It would be great to go to a single payor source..that would dramatically change things in this country. No one would have to stay with a job they hated just for the benefits, and it would go a long way to bringing down the cost of health care, plus it would be fair to every citizen, not just certain groups. The time is overdue for us to revamp our whole healthcare system…we could take what other industrialized countries have done, improve it, and make it a true health care model for the world. We have the resources to do it right.
” recent Associated Press survey found that thoroughbred racetracks in the U.S. reported more than three horse deaths a day last year and 5,000 since 2003, and the vast majority were put down after suffering devastating injuries on the track.”
Sad news. Seems to me like they are breeding these horses with to thin of bones to take the stress of racing.
Hankster,
I’m moving to a small apartment, and can have a pet. I’m thinking of a small dog, not too noisy, and not to wound up. Suggestions?
I watch, and love, the Dog Whisperer, and should be able to implement some of his pack-leader techniques. Interesting that I was at a friends house, a big Rott-type breed, who seemed to dislike males, came up behind me. I didn’t pay any attention to him. He started nuzzling my hand, wanting some petting. I kinda pushed him off, again without looking at him, and the rest of the day, he followed me, laying down whenever I sat down. That’s when I started petting him.
Every time I went over there, he would come up and stand next to me, or lay down next to me. Cool!!! Way too big for my appt:-)
“Sad news. Seems to me like they are breeding these horses with to thin of bones to take the stress of racing.”
Over training, unscrupulous trainers, steroids, lax medical requirements, shaky breeding programs, allowing horses to race while on powerful painkillers………..
(Did you know that steroids are legal in horse racing? I didn’t until very recently.)
I love the beauty of horses racing – they are truly gorgeous animals – but the sorry underbelly of the horse racing industry needs to be cleaned up – and soon.
JMWalker — I noticed the other day, on the corner of about 2nd & Meridian, a sign in the yard, advertising AKC Registered Dachshund puppies… They work pretty good in a small apartment…
Hey JM,
I would go to the Human Society and tell them what you want and your circumstances. They might have just the dog for you!
“. . .plus it would be fair to every citizen, . . .”
Just what we need, Mary. A bunch of federal bureaucrats telling us what is ‘fair’!
Is it fair for someone that looks after his health, eats right, exercises, doesn’t smoke or drink to excess, to subsidize the health care of someone that has abused drugs and alcohol all his life and now needs a liver?
Is it fair that the rich guy who abuses drugs and alcohol all his life and now needs a liver gets one because he’s got the money to pay for one?
We already HAVE rationed health care.
Rationed by who can PAY for it.
2nd and Meridian Brother Chas?
I see that you have slipped into town and no longer occupying quarters elsewhere.
okobserver,
Aren’t you going to explain how a bogus attack in Feb 2007 caused Gore to begin extensive energy renovations in late 2004?

Here is your universal medical care and single payer system in action…. Check out our nice neighbor next door the Candians….and why they come here for care.
Check your time to get to see the doctor.

Actually Cosmos I gave you way to much of my time yesterday. I have learned in a short time that you are single minded and it does no good to hit you with logic. You just can’t see beyond your limited viewpoints.
Therefore no I won’t play your game today. Important things that will make a difference to do. Soak up the sunlight. Watch my flowers grow. Watch the finches and cardinals that share my feeder. I hope you get the picture.
I don’t buy your and Algores doom and gloom pictures. Interesting note on Drudge about the British, as a nation they don’t buy the GW crap either. Interesting. Your side is losing ground. But to each his own.
Enjoy the day.
okobserver,
In short, you posted falsehoods yesterday that you can’t defend.
No cosmos I posted no falsehoods. You are so one sighted you see nothing outside your tunnel vision. You for whatever reason worship at the alter of Algore and GW. Your problem not mine. I don’t post falsehoods. I don’t defend the same.
Gore is a user. A manipulator. A defrocked politician who couldn’t even get the support of his lifetime neighbors, the people who know him best. A person who became rich off the ignorance of others. You fit into that category. I really don’t want to argue about this with you. My mind is made up and so is yours.
Cosmos I said I wouldn’t give you anymore time but I am posting one more time to show the absurdity of what you believe about Algore.

“In response to the center’s research, Al Gore’s office said that the Gore family does a lot to reduce how much they pollute, such as making renovations that include solar panels, and purchasing carbon offsets.
Melissa Block talks with Mark Trexler, president of Trexler Climate and Energy Services in Portland, Ore., about carbon offsets — what they are, and how a small consumer can reduce carbon emissions.
Trexler says that carbon offsets work by calculating how much carbon dioxide you are putting into the air, and then you figure out how much to pay a carbon-offset company to counteract the pollution.
The system works by supporting alternative energy initiatives. And after buying offsets from retail offset brokers, “You can them claim to be climate-neutral,” Trexler says.
————
Where is the evidence that this ever happened since he owns the carbon offset company. How dense can the GWers be. Well I claim to be carbon neutral how about you?
Gwiz man how dense can any one person be?
Crowson sure missed the mark in his cartoon today, it should have been John McCain sitting on top of the bus as snoopy (there’s even an uncanny resemblance!)cursing the GAO.

Energy renovations on his house started in late 2004.
Zoning laws re the PV panels were challenged in the summer of 2006.

OKOB — in addition to your false claims that Gore owns a private jet, and now you claim he owns the carbon offset company… Do you have some kind of a LINK to prove either one of these false claims???
You will recall, before trashing my comment, that you just bitched on another thread because you didnt LIKE or believe the links that were posted on a different subject… And if you dont post some kind of link on this one, I will go get the post you made to me on the other thread, and show you up for what you are… TROLL par excellance!! LOL
Actually Gore is a major partner in a U.K. carbon credit firm which has very strong ties to a Chicago based carbon credit firm.
This is all factual and true.
Gore is a multi-millionaire leading the gullible Libs down a primrose path. Gore wants to make millions more from gullible Libs.
OKOB pontificates >>>>

And THEN says this >>>>

OKOB — you posted an entire paragraph of intentional falsehoods… or lies… right after claiming you dont do such things…
Care to make up your mind?? Or would you rather crawl back into the rat’s nest you came from?? I am getting tired of your style of Trolling rhetoric…. TROLL!!!
Post a link, Regular — PROVE it!! TROLL!!
Go fish Brother Chas.
I’ve posted it several times here on the Blog and it was undisputed as it IS part of Gore’s portfolio.
So TROLL Chas, go find it and prove me wrong.
You can’t, because it is the truth.
Chas,
If the multi-nic’d ‘Regular’ can’t find a link that supports his claim, he just adds a false, fictional paragraph to a copy/paste post.
Seems to me that if the tanker deal does in fact go to Boeing, Tankerless Todd becomes Tanker Todd again, and you can bet that Roberts will find some way to cover himself with some of the glory.
Which means that if the tanker deal goes to Boeing, Todd and Pat will probably get re-elected. Too bad for Betts and Slattery.

With little media monitoring, both Strong and Gore are cashing in on the lucrative cottage industry known as man-made global warming.
Strong is on the board of directors of the Chicago Climate Exchange, Wikipedia-described as “the world’s first and North America’s only legally binding greenhouse gas emission registry reduction system for emission sources and offset projects in North America and Brazil.”
Gore buys his carbon off-sets from himself–the Generation Investment Management LLP, “an independent, private, owner-managed partnership established in 2004 with offices in London and Washington, D.C.” of which he is both chairman and founding partner.
http://www.canadafreepress.com/2007/cover031307.htm
That’s just one source. There are many other sources including non-profits who identify Gore as a major investor in his own company which act as a broker for carbon credits.

Ummm If YOU, Regular, had a company where you were a part owner… Would you buy your own product??
What is wrong with Gore buying carbon offsets from his own company?? You want to show us all here why he should buy carbon offsets from some company that he is NOT a part of??? Would that be a capitalistic thing to do??? I didnt think so….
You all are just trying to make mountains out of mole hills… And, it aint gonna work no more….
BTW, WHO is paying the bills at the TCPR outfit??? They sure dont know how to get their facts straight either!! LOL
Looks like OKOB crawled back to its rats nest, when it couldnt find any links to show that Gore flys around on private jets… Thats OK OKOB… Sean Hannity couldnt find any proof of it either!! LOL

Chas you really are as deluded as I gave you credit for. Why when you have been proven wrong over and over again as you and Cosmos have been would I hang around to rub salt in your wounds unless I enjoyed your pain. I don’t.

“It is a well documented fact that Gore flys in a private jet frequently.”
Mrbill: The Frasier Institute is comprised of over the hill reichwingers who have embarrased themselves so often few Canadians pays any attention to them. They’ve been trying for years to get health care and schools into a privatized- for-profit mode. In Canada, as elsewhere, the aims an objects are to provide timely, quality care base on soley on need and not the ability to pay. You can’t demand attention by reason of financial clout. Look up the results of universal coverage and the relative US standings. I’ve got family there, annoyed at what they were led to believe about universal coverage before they started to enjoy the benefits. That’s right he’s an American but by working there he and his family are covered by the plan. Only 3 supposedly advanced countries with representative governments do not have some kind of universal coverage, Turkey, Mexico and the US.
Cosmos when did he write his first book on GW. Was it prior to 2004. Of course it was. He finally realized the opposition was looking at his lifestyle and thought he should make nice about being green. So he installed a few solar panels and changed his lightbulbs. Why so late?
He’s your hero not mine. Why was that? Why does it cost over $8000 a year to heat and cool his poolhouse. As much as it cost to heat and cool his big mansion. Solar heating plants for pools have been available since back in the 80’s. Why wasn’t he heating the pool with those then.
I’m not a gullabile as you are and think I will go back out in the sunlight and enjoy nature before it goes away and we either freeze or die of heat exhaustion. I forget which it is today.
How much does it cost to live Mrs. McC***’s lifestyle?

———–
The multi-nic’d ‘Regular’ knows(sic) that it’s “a ’scare’ message” because he believes that global CO2 was above 400 ppm in the 1940’s.
And the multi-nic’d ‘Regular’ has an Industrial Hygiene engineering degree, which he believes makes him more qualified than all of the worlds top climate scientists.

* I have lied * = “I havent lied”
Didnt want a Typo to cause a WAR
Dont use the raw story link OKOB will flame tha it’s bogus!!
Really? Then let’s drive the sucker nute!
LOOKOUT ALTERNET! And just happens to be accurate!
Rather, the court can only look to see if the defendant has the piece of paper described in the law, and if it does, the court must dismiss the case. By interposing a certification requirement, and directing judicial attention to a piece of paper, the bill fends off judicial scrutiny of what in fact occurred.
And there is every reason to believe that the telecom defendants will have the necessary piece of paper. Indeed, there is every reason to believe that the bill has been carefully written to track the precise piece of paper the telecoms have — otherwise, why list both the Attorney General and the heads of intelligence community elements? And why include the weird codicil about the deputies of one but not the other?
. . . . . .
To be sure, the bill then installs judicial review of such collection efforts — but the courts will not examine the actual surveillance programs, let alone individual cases of surveillance. Again, the bill interposes a certification requirement between the court and the facts.
Specifically, the role of judges is limited to ascertaining whether the Attorney General has completed a certification promising that either he has followed the law, or that he will follow the law soon. If the Attorney General cannot meet even this spectacularly low bar, the bill gives the government time to amend and to re-file the certificate. Something even Alberto Gonzales could manage.
This is a radical break from the FISA regime created in 1978, and risks severe harm to Americans’ privacy interests. The most important break with FISA is the absence of any individualized warrant requirement: it is now whole collection programs that are authorized and reviewed. And the abandonment of discrete, individualized legislative authorization and judicial review is only the first of the bill’s troubling features.
The new provisions also allow the government to create sweeping new programs that are formally targeted at overseas persons, but that predictably sweep in large. The provision’s loose language about targets — who do not in fact have to be overseas, only reasonably believed to be overseas — gives the government substantial latitude in crafting the parameters of its searches.

Prove that Gore’s aircraft is not leased/owned by him.
BTW, leasing is just like leasing a car. You fill it with fuel and provide routine maintenance for it.
Here we go folks — RE: TCPR that the wing nuts keep quoting….
First off, the Tennessee Department of Revenue has stated that the Tennessee Center for Policy Research is “not a legitimate group.”
http://lots-o-thoughts.blogspot.com/2007/02/drudge-gore-and-tennessee.html
NO REGULAR — I am NOT going to prove he doesnt OWN it, because one of YOUR KIND already stated that he DOES Own it… And many of us here have already told him/her to PROVE it…. No Proof has been forthcoming… SO, we can logically assume that there is NO PROOF that Gore owns said aircraft…. And I must point out to you once again, LEASING is not OWNING!!!
And before you really push this thing farther than you can defend it…. You do realize that MOST of the power in Tennessee is from Nuclear and Hydroelectric power to start with??? The Emmissions factor on such usage would be VERY LOW… SO, Gore isnt even CLOSE to emmissions usage in many other parts of the country —-not to mention his use of the Green Power Switch…. for Wind and Solar power….

You can’t logically prove anything without knowing.
Actually, I said he might be leasing, didn’t say he did. Now, you’re trying to make it as part of fact of your false assertion.
If it was Bombardier, I could find out – I have a relative who is a leasing agent for them. :)
After a day of spinning lies and conjecture “Regular” offers –
“I could find out – I have a relative who is a leasing agent for them.”
“Finding out?” Then basing your posts on what you’ve found out?!
That’s a pretty dramatic departure from your standard operating procedure, “Regular.”
You forgot to put in “If it was Bombardier” as part of the quote, PrimateRaptor.

So Chas the lesser what does that difference make. Rush Limbaugh doesn’t own a private jet either. But there is always one at his disposal because he belongs to a group of leasors who together lease/own a private jet.

Chas for a preacher man you sure have a dirty mouth on you. What seminary did you attend? I might need to write a letter to see what course they teach that enables you to act like this.
YOU DONT HAVE A BRAIN OKOB…. YOU MADE THE CLAIM THAT GORE FLIES ON HIS OWN PRIVATE PLANE…. PROVE IT OR ADMIT YOU LIED, AND SHUT UP!!

Hmmmm…. User… Manipulator…. Defrocked politician (2 times VPOTUS) A former U.S. Senator… Vietnam War Veteran…. Presidential Candidate…. Yea, sure…. defrocked politician…. Whats wrong OKOB??? You jealous??? Cant win dog catcher???

I am tired of your type… what a waste of bandwidth!!!
Chas post where I used the words gore and own in the same sentence or group of sentences. You have made such a big deal of a non issue that I want you to show where I ever said he ‘owned a private jet’.
When they made you I hope they threw away the mold because the world won’t be better off if there are more of you around.
As for your language I don’t care how you talk just think you have an anger issue or some such.
Couldn’t prove any of it was a lie eh Chas? It’s awful when your heros have feet of clay.
“Regular” whines –

Uhm. The Gulfstream is a Bombardier product. No “if” about it.
Your access to the company’s records is either another episode of your wild-eyed habit of braggadocio, or just another lie.
Or else, y’know, you could “find out” before you post on a topic.
It’d crimp your style, I realize. But it’s something to consider for a change.
OKOB — ALL of your Gore Smear CRAP is a LIE… ALL OF IT!!! Except for he didnt carry Tennessee… big deal!! The rest of it is just LIES….
And you DID claim he owned his jet… MORE than once, even!! I challenged you on it… Cosmos also challenged you on it…. You really dont want me to go dig that up, now do you??? Then we would ALL know that you are nothing but LIES!!!
On second thought, I might do that, if I get time later…. :-)
I’m waiting Chas. When you have nothing run away. In lib world if two libs lie does that make it true. It doesn’t work that way in a conservative world.
I left out one statement about Gore. He is a snake oil salesman too.

1) He flies commercial airlines…
2) His SUV is a hybid Mercury model…
Guess you just cant get stuff straight, OKOB…
Now, go off on a tangent how a private jet doesnt mean he owns it… And you MIGHT be right… or wrong… But you could at least say he flies on a LEASED Jet… except for the fact that he flies commercial!! LOL Just cant fix stupid….

Then you better inform the Canadian Company Bombardier Company that it is the same as Gulf Stream Inc. USA, and they should stop competing for private jet aircraft sales.
Cosmos I had that covered. Thanks for the help. I was in a vacation condo last week and when I referred to my condo I always said my condo is in building 10 room 4. It really wasn’t mine but just for the week I got to say so.
Same with saying that Gore was by ‘his private jet’. No matter who holds the paper on it it wasn’t commercial. You and Chas get together on that one. Maybe between the two of you one mind will emerge.
Chas,
Maybe okobserver also believes that Gore flies on his commercial jet?
Go stuff your face, OKOB… you probably need it… ROFL
Ummmm BTW, HIS is a personal/possessive pronoun, indicating ownership… What you did or said about a Condo somewhere is totlaly irrelevant… But, then, you dont know the difference, OKOB… Enjoy the face feeding frenzy!!
Chas,
Do you pick your nose?
Still waiting for the ‘own’ word with ‘Gore’ and ‘jet’.
M H — I would HOPE that Regular’s relative at Bombardier would have more savvy than to divulge lease information on a client — but if his relative has the same integrity of Regular, I wouldnt know… ROFL!!
Chas,
Do you keep kosher?
OKOB — You dumb ding a ling…. YOUR post:
“Well Cosmos since he obviously is your hero I won’t even mention his private jet,
or that SUV he likes to go around in.”
Note: Emphasis mine….
NOW, you used the personal possessive pronoun… You COULD have used “leased”, or “rented” — But you used HIS PRIVATE JET… with the full intention of conveying ownership… Simple English Grammar, or is your granny senility taking over again??
I believe that is otherwise known as CHECK MATE!!
I’m outta here… Dinner time, followed by College World Series….
Bye for now!!
Depends on the meaning what HIS IS…
Chas has declared himself the best whiner and left…
temporarily…
Wow, been away for some time, but in looking over some of the threads, I see that the usual Trollish Blogladytes are still foaming at the keyboard, attempting to cause their usual idiotic problems, and doing their usual diversionary tactics, and wasting bandwidth.
There is this goon, Boxlock. Thinks he is God’s gift to God’s gifts, apparently. He is surely no gift to anything else, including the appearance of intelligence. A simple minded one trick pony, and a shill type of the right wing (and ultra right wing) – would likely feel at home with a room full of Reynolds’ and McVey type creatures on many occasions.
And then, there is the okobserver, who appears to have a new name, but the same old Blog lack of personality, and reading comprehension as its former nic, which shall remain un-named for the moment.
And then there are the bulletzie twins, Hank and Nathan; not secure anywhere without their testosterone producing weapons of personal destruction. That must be a horrible feeling to not feel safe in the community, unless they are packing a gun hidden somewhere on their persons.
And ahhh yes, the inevitable Regular who gives us such intelligent lines as this:

________________________________________
Just how many meanings does the great pointy cone headed McLiar think the word HIS actually has in the English language?
So, even though I have been absent, I see things havent changed a whole lot.
Cosmos is still trying to prove his very well read conclusions that we are indeed in a period of Global Warming.
Blue Jay is still trying to show us why we might need to take another look at Candidate Obama. It truly is too bad that there isnt a more qualified candidate in the mix for this year. Can you imagine? All of these decades, and we still basically only have a Two Party system.
And I see that Fleettwood is still the BDP –
And appears to have been joined by the BDFP now with the arrival of the “okobserver” – who should probably go observe the blogs at the Daily Oklahoman, instead of at the Eagle. At least he/she would find a whole lot of fellow scatter brained no nothings to agree with his/her outrageous posts, and infernal poor reading capabilities.
And as always, I have noted that Max is still the perverbial pain in the A%% as usual. So, some things never change!
I do notice a strange absenteeism of Apophis, and to some extent, BTH(Ben). And the jovial attorney fellow, Vaughn, seems to be missing as well. They both add much to the overall mentality of the WEBlog.
I was quite happy to see the great posts lately from Lindainks, and KsFarmgrrl, and Political Mama. Without them, the intelligence level of this Blog suffers severely!
Well, I guess I will now sit and watch. It has been a long time to be away, but I hope to be in and out throughout most of the Summer months.
And, for those who care, Happy Solstice!
Get your hand out of your pants SquarePeg and go back being Chas.

KsNaive, the adolescent, get your mind out of the gutter and both hands back on the keyboard.
How old are you anyway…just discover that thing?

Have a great day Poodleboy!
“Get your hand out of your pants SquarePeg and go back being Chas.”
But McCluer, YOU said that accusing one poster of being another was out of bounds.
Are you breaking your OWN rules?
Damn, that would make you a ………………… hypocrite.
Huh?
“Is it fair for someone that looks after his health, eats right, exercises, doesn’t smoke or drink to excess, to subsidize the health care of someone that has abused drugs and alcohol all his life and now needs a liver?”
You already do, dear. Your tax dollar and mine pay for Medicaid, Medicare, AND the VA healthcare system. Those programs are chock full of people who have abused their bodies and now have easy access to healthcare. If it works for them, why not ALL of us? I’ve paid into a system that I’ll never be able to benefit from if things stay the way they are. It’s only fair that every American have the same access to affordable healthcare..not just the poor, the elderly, and the vets. I’ve contributed to my country as much as anyone and more than a lot of people…but yet I can’t get affordable healthcare or insurance if my husband loses his job, and that’s just not right.
Just think of the freedom we’d have with Universal Healthcare…no staying at a dead end job one hates because of the fear of losing the benefits…that alone is worth it. We could do it the right way…not the way Canada or Europe does it. Although I’ve never met a European who was dissatisfied with their system, it seems to work well enough for them. In Holland, for example, pregnant women have to get prenatal care if they want to take family leave. As a result, Holland has less infant motality and the babies are healthier at birth.

You sound a lot like SquarePeg.
Are you Chas gone drag?
(chortles)
Damn, that would make you a ………………… hypocrite.
Maybe if we all just ignore it, it will go away?
“Maybe if we all just ignore it, it will go away?”
Naw, every time McCluer “goes away” he comes back the next day with a new nic.
From the Live Earth web-site’s Climate Crisis Solutions. (Select solutions provided by “The Global Warning Survival Handbook”.
“A 100-guestroom hotel can save an estimated 72,000 gallons of water a year through a linen and towel reuse program. You don’t wash your towel everyday at home, do you?”
How many times should I use a towel before it gets scheduled for the wash?
I normally dont request a linen change, or new towels, except for pool towels, unless I am in a room for more than 5 nights. Then I feel its the same time that I go between laundry cycles on linens and towels at home. I’ve been doing that for many years!
And I didnt even know it was helping the climate! Hooray!
Square Peg you seem to know a lot of people on the blog but you didn’t mention the village idiot, Chas. He said he would be back after the ball game but he hasn’t made it yet. I can picture him circling his house looking for his computer but unable to find it.
You seem to have formed a fast opinion of me and we haven’t even met formally yet.
Well if you see this Chas fellow send him in the right direction. He owes me an apology.
Um, okobserver, from what I read upthread, it doesnt appear as though you deserve an apology. It would seem that you attacked Chas and others here, because they asked you to prove something you had said before, and yet, you did not provide such proof. If there are any apologies owed, I would say that you owe one to the Blog for your miserable attitude.
Sorry, I call them as I see them. I think one of your other posters says that as well. Boxnock is it?
Oh, I am so sorry, it is Boxlock. The nic who is so introverted, he has a need to carry his weapon of choice with him as his “nic”
Sorry I am late. College World Series was on some channel I couldnt find. So, I watched Cubs/White Sox. Good game.
Well, the hour is late. I wont waste much time here now. OKOB — My apology manager is Helen Waite. If you want an apology from me go to Hel en Waite! LOL :-D
Good night; Good luck; And God bless –
Whatever you conceive God to be!!
Blessings ALL!!
So mote it be!!
How bout them Royals??
KansasNative — I cant seem to find an 8:29 pm posting for Boxlock?? Did it vanish??
Never mind, KSNative… I found it on yesterday’s Open Thread, posted there earlier tonight… strange….

I’m not a gullabile as you are…
————-
okobserver, you believe that a “few solar panels” and “lightbulbs” would convert an energy-hog, 80-year mansion into an energy efficient, gold LEED rated home.
You obviously know NOTHING about energy efficient home renovations.
Your 100% clueless, inaccurate attacks prove that you are [not posted because personal attacks are against blog policy -- but it's very obvious what you are].
Awww go ahead, Cosmos… Blog policy doesnt bother okobserver, or Regular, or Boxnut, or any of those others… They think they are above mundane little “rules”
“Liberal media” “Liberal Hollywood.”
My ass. I’ve just been rewatching “Iron Eagle”. See also “Red Dawn”.
This was the crap I was raised on. This was the crap that made me vote for Reagan in 1984.
I look back on it now and think just how stupid I was to be captured by such pap.
I was saddened to hear that George Carlin passed away this evening.
Please, a vote:
okobserver = ksgrm
I vote yes.
YES
HEALTH CARE ROUND-TABLE DISCUSSION TO BE HELD IN WICHITA
WICHITA, KS: Affordable health care tops the list as America’s biggest domestic worry these days. To address this concern, Democracy for America (Wichita) has assembled a panel of three speakers to offer concrete suggestions for reducing medical costs while at the same time improving health care.
• Walt Chappell, Ph.D. and candidate for State School Board, “How to Reduce the Cost of Health Care”
• Ron Hunninghake, M.D. from The Bright Spot for Health, “Nutritional Supplements and Health Maintenance”
• Jane Byrnes, R.D., Distinguished Kansas Dietician and Personal Trainer, “Wellness, Much Cheaper than Sickness”
This program is free and open to the public at The Wichita Central Library, 223 South Main from 7 to 8:30 pm on Tuesday, June 24 and Rockwell Library, 5939 East 9th from 7 to 8:30 pm on Thursday, June 26.
Mary_Caruso: You won’t find many Canadians who are willing to go back to private insurance either and any government who brings up the idea would be out on their butts. They also get one years maternity leave just like Europe, and there is no National Plan, each state has their own plan.
