Since I have to attend a MoveOn.Org party for listening to Obama's acceptance speech, I will make this an easy topic where much research is not required.  Remember this is not examining how either candidate plans to get it done, but what are they proposing.  Today's topic will be Health Care.

Hello, welcome to my little corner of the web! Today, I'm featuring an article about the general state of the healthcare industry in the United States. This is not a top-to-bottom review of the entire industry, but it will give you an overview, and should give anyone looking for health care jobs a head start on the rest of the pack!  read more »

John Goodman -- not the actor, but the president of something called the National Center for Policy Analysis and a policy advisor for the McCain campaign -- says that since everyone in the country has access to emergency rooms, no one is technically uninsured, so the Census Bureau should stop describe anyone as uninsured.

As I scanned through some old articles on a science news webpage, I found an article which, in short, stated kids with an IQ higher than 115 at the age of 6 are less likely to develop Post Traumatic Stress Disorder by age 17 for reasons that are "unclear". But, ironically enough, the children teachers said didn't have good conduct patterns had a higher risk of being exposed to violence, rape, beatings, and so forth.

And there is one person who can do something about it - John McCain.

Don't believe me? Well you should!

Thanks to the blog: Women for John McCain - his new nick name is Coat-hanger.

So - you ask: How is John McCain going to bring down the numbers of uninsured people in Texas? You hate him, Will, but now you are backing him - not a flip-flopper like McCain are you?
