That's unbelievable, and just one more reason why something needs to be done. <BR/><BR/>Larry, I think your comment about health care being important to society is supported by the polls too. It takes a cold person to deny someone help when they're suffering. <BR/><BR/>Expat, your better half went to Bali and you stayed home with a drink and your blog? Are you crazy, man? ;-)<BR/><BR/>Abi, thanks so much for the support. I agree that we have to keep hammering away, and I definitely have the tenacity to keep on going! As I heard recently in a movie (I think it was "The Desperate One"), "we have to take it, because they aren't going to give it to us." I think voting in the candidate who has the best chance of delivering is one way to accomplish that.Kathyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06875378679299157108noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18370478.post-61925499102842473922007-06-23T19:35:00.000-04:002007-06-23T19:35:00.000-04:00Call me a curmudgeonly old cynic, but the polls a...Call me a curmudgeonly old cynic, but the polls aren't going to persuade the pols to come up with a decent (in both senses of the word), universal health care system. Polls are one thing, buy lobbyists' dollars are another.<BR/><BR/>You know I'm with you on this issue, Kathy, and I think we have to keep hammering away anyway. But I'm afraid greed and self-interest have too strong a hold on this country.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18370478.post-78461735731677817422007-06-23T13:49:00.000-04:002007-06-23T13:49:00.000-04:00You have been hitting on topics close to the heart...You have been hitting on topics close to the heart.<BR/><BR/>Healthcare is one of the most important basics of a society.<BR/><BR/>Of course not in a neocon society.Larryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05283557503536810926noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18370478.post-20991002090200991132007-06-23T08:47:00.000-04:002007-06-23T08:47:00.000-04:00Larry, the elected elite, the ones we elected, don...Larry, the elected elite, the ones we elected, dont give a shit if you have healthcare or not. they dont operate on your plane of "caring".Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18370478.post-74418283086380081902007-06-23T08:44:00.000-04:002007-06-23T08:44:00.000-04:00linked to these two good posts. better half is gon...linked to these two good posts. better half is gone to Bali of all places so I had a drink and put up some good time stuff if your interested.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18370478.post-53014569049105918292007-06-22T16:00:00.000-04:002007-06-22T16:00:00.000-04:00Will the elected elite in this country even realiz...Will the elected elite in this country even realize that they are not the only ones who deserve healthcare in America?<BR/><BR/>Good post.Larryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05283557503536810926noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18370478.post-26440861095256325102007-06-22T13:31:00.000-04:002007-06-22T13:31:00.000-04:00Blogger is acting up again...this will be my third...Blogger is acting up again...this will be my third time trying to leave a comment....anyways....this is a great post- every so disturbing...47 million American ATLEAST living without healht insurance- not right....<BR/>and 9 million Children...We MUST change this...I as a nurse am ashamed of the Healthcare in this country.....( I also am a member of the 47 Million Club).....<BR/><BR/>Thank you for coming by Watergate Summer...I am Back.....for good...enigma4everhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06589997090173140019noreply@blogger.com
