John, this doesn’t only happen in San Antonio, in my country, bloggers who just started earlier and had some “so and so” know somebody etc., thinks they’re somebody. Who cares? Some even proclaim themselves probloggers yet they can’t even bring down their traffic and it’s like a handful of visitors a day.

Genuine bloggers like you John are blogosphere’s extinct jewels. It’s you’re being you that makes real friends even from far places. Keep rockin’!

Well, where do I start? How about “health care reform”? I totally agree that health care needs to be reformed. Now, with the passage of this bill, it needs reformed more than ever. I work with this bs on a daily basis. I expect to be more sick of more work for less, or even no, money than every before. I totally agree with Cheryl about the drugs. Most all of it is unneccessary. Diet, exercise and cut off the boob tube will take care of most of America’s health care crisis.

But without the toobe, how would the sleeple be influenced en mass?

As far as the war machine is concerned, what a waste on all fronts. Waste of man power, funds and human suffering. Kinda makes you wonder when will we learn, don’t it? Well, I personally believe that the war and fear mongers know what they are doing. They have been doing it too long not to know.

I was really glad to see your featured video in the right hand column. If you have watched it, you know that Alex supports his assertions with the Powers that be’s own words. Everyone should watch Fall of the Republic even if it’s only to knock little holes in it.

There is so much good that CONgress could be doing or at least attempting to do. But right now, we are facing what Thomas Jefferson warned about: corporations ruling this country. That is who this “health care reform” bill will benefit foremost.

The best way to reform health care would be to get the government out of it. I have older patients who remember the time before Medicare. Health care costs were reasonable then. Even when you factor how much the dollar has been devalued (the correct way to refer to inflation), health care costs have risen astronomically.

Don’t you think that the regulations already in place would be enough if that’s what they are really intended to do? Surely more of the same will not change the direction. More of the same policies only leads to more of the same results. (Fool me once…)

Finally, gridlock has been and would be the best Congress ever. The only problem is that most of the critters play for the same team. One team with two different names, Dem and Rep.
