Clinton says debate was turning point in New Hampshire victory
Like all of you. I know that health care is the most critical, and important issue facing the American people. Now, and in the coming elections. And like the vast majority of the American people, I want HR 676 (Medicare For All) passed into law NOW! "Single payer, Tax Supported, Not For Profit, True Universal Health Care" free for all as a right. Like every other developed country in the world has. See: http://www.house.gov/conyers/news_hr676.htm “HR 676: For church goers: less money to insur. companies and more to the church- lots more. Srs on Medicare: save way over $100/wk. Because no more medigap, long term care & dental insur. needed. No more drug bills." But if we the American people fail to bring enough pressure on our current politicians to get HR 676 passed into law before the elections.
Wild Card/Vacation Day 11 of 12
Only two more shopping days until I return to the final days of the City Council campaigns. Then, we'll have fun taking apart the campaigns. Any dirt yet? Any mudslinging. You know, the good stuff. Or is everyone behaving? My wife is now looking over my shoulder -- literally -- so I have to pretend that I'm just checking ball scores. See ya in two days. Here's Wild Card ... .
Poll shows Labour still Rock with voters after bank panic
The same poll showed Tory leader David Cameron had become Britain's least popular party leader, with an approval rating below that of both Gordon Brown and the Liberal Democrats' Sir Ming Campbell. And another poll found public trust in the Government hardly shaken by the Northern Rock panic. In that Populus survey, 56 per cent of people said they trusted Gordon Brown and Chancellor Alistair Darling, down just five points since earlier this month, while only 18 per cent trusted David Cameron and Shadow Chancellor George Osborne, down nine points. And most voters blamed the Northern Rock crisis either on financial problems in the American mortgage market, or the bank's own management, rather than the Government. The findings of both polls are a boost for Mr Brown. The ICM poll for The Guardian gave Labour an eight point lead over the Tories - 40 per cent to 32 - with the Lib Dems on 20 per cent.
Bad-luck Modestan sees 5 cars smashed in 18 months
Terry Hopkins figured it was just bad luck when a drunken driver careened into two of his family's parked cars outside of his East Orangeburg Avenue home a year and a half ago, totaling one. But then another driver slammed into his daughter's parked car in April. It happened again in January, this time wrecking his sedan. But Hopkins' car troubles don't end there. This month, one more drunken driver smashed into a rental car he'd parked in front of his home. That accident also claimed a van specially fitted for Hopkins' 10-year-old son, who has cerebral palsy. "It seems like my house has become a magnet," Hopkins, 44, said. Hopkins took his plight to City Hall last week, asking for a permanent fix to keep cars and pedestrians safe.
