Brad, Nice to see that you haven't lost your ability to look down your thin little beak at others and are still able to impugn a whole class of people based on stereotyping. I think that is the definition of bigot. JW

I didn't get two of my adult teeth - my baby teeth are still there (although now built up). You should make sure you attend to those teeth unless you're sure he's going to get his adult teeth. Thankfully, mine are still intact, and usable some 40-something years later. My youngest daughter also has the same - two adult teeth not there in the same locale I'm missing my two adult teeth. Just something to think about. Merry Chr

Well, after watching these two candidates vie for the "highest office on earth" as the pundits like to call it, let me say that I found it to be a disgusting exercise on both candidates parts of telling obvious, verifiable, lies. And these are the men who are both claiming to be seeking wisdom from God? Blech ... Sickening. It wasn't pretty to watc

Well, President Bush is back. Shit for the rest of the world, I think, but perhaps time will prove me wrong. At least I hope that's so. JW

Well, having seen the light, I'll offer this thought: President Bush lacks any real "mandate" (in the historical sense that people have voted for certain specifics) except that he'll: staying steadfast on terrorism and Iraq. Kerry didn't do any better in that regard of course. That's the downside of negative campaigning - i

Once again, we are seeing an increading number of Americans visting my country (Canada) for medical tourist reasons. First, there was the recent Amtrack train running from LA to Vancouver BC (seniors prescription drug run), along with thousands (tens of thousands?; hundreds of thousands??; millions???) of others doing the same all along our shared border. Now, another

I think there is a tendancy on those who are somewhat liberal to be so tied to their passions that they cannot look at the debates objectdively as often.Some may recall that Gore "won" the debates last time in terms of the polls even though, in hindsight, it was pretty obvious that Bush won. I think one reason for that is that De

Thanks Sally, Been working hard on my porfolio - investigated about 100-150 companies lately and found four or five that I really like. Anyway, that takes a lot of time, so haven't been able to visit here too much. But just thought I'd stop by and get this off my chest - someone's insults here have really bothered me. Hope you're keeping well. Luv ya, Sal. Hopefully I'll be able to spend

I'd take and turn your insults, inside out, so that everybody could see, your dirty, nasty, ways. I'd show you, that this world is real too, that your nasty words, can be met with nasty deeds. Oh, on the rink, on the rink! You'd be mine - with your first nasty slew foot, that would signal my revenge divine. <B

Health care in the United States is significantly better Not true. Study after study has shown very little differences in health outcomes between the two countries. There was just a recent news article I read documenting a study in a peer-reviewed journal to that effect. I'll try to find the link. While

drmiller: That's been one of the points I've made here and elswhere - for all we know, clear cutting forests is a bigger cause for CO2 increasing than any other activity. Brad, understanding the difference between "carbon emissions" and a "carbon sink" is something that you surely know about, right? Cle

Blogger Jeremy Wright has sold his blog, ensight.com. for $15,000, plus a monthly fee to continue writing on-line for the next year. It is thought to be the first 'clean' sale of a blog.

You'll have the liberals who have excessive free time trying to nit-pick my examples with exceptions to a generalization as if that somehow disproves the generalization ("Hey Bush is trying to send AIDS help to Africa too!") but none of that changes the bottom line: That the people who run the companies, who actually create the "

Your thesis is incorrect as I read it. You mix the idea of "universal coverage" with HOW that can be achieved (ie everything through state-controlled entry points vs. the ability of the health care recipient to choose the best service). These are entirely different arguments, but by mixing them togther, these two issues become confused. 1. Generally, universal coverage is only universal - in countries providing government paid-healt

This is one of the reasons I have trouble understanding the right wing and religion in America. *Supposedly* they walk hand-in-hand, yet the reality seems to be that -for the right wing - it's every man for himself! Not all that "christian" in my viewpoint. Thanks for the post Gid, JW

It shoudl tell you that conservatives have always been pro-environment. But not so pro-environment as to defy common sense. Having watched the conservative movement for many decades, I don't think they can really be equated with any sort of environmental ethic. They are typically the last to be dragged,

While I understand your contention, I'm not sure Saddam had planned a "master terrorist stroke" such as you propose. In any case, it's unfortunate that the world, and particularly North America, allowed it to come to that; in America particularly by continually allowing SUVs and "light trucks" to escape the EPA mileage mandates. With better fuel economy, the war wouldn't have been *needed* to secure American industrial needs. JW</fon
