Marvelous. We're right back in the early 90s. Let's bomb Kosovo just for old times sake.

Michael: any comment on the article on Dennis Ross in the NYT today? It talks about his move to the WH as a career "upgrade", and somehow links it with Obama's recent "harder line" on settlements.

In other words, they chosen to subsidize the the insurance industry rather than health care--at least they're socialists after all.
Anyway, the theft couldn't be more blatant than if these guys broke into one's house at night. Why the hell do we keep putting up with it? There isn't even any real risk in demanding change that I can see (those with a vested interested in the "private" extortion apparatus we call a health care system are a minority).
