What a great article!
Disclaimer: I am a Republican. It's impressive that a doctor would come out and admit this, and write such an article. It seems very true that capping damages is not the way to go, and this piece gave some great numbers on how much negligence actually prevails in the medical industry. Um . . . scary! As for caps, the only people they ...

But HOW?
''And those of us who care deeply about a well-functioning judicial branch should work now to stop this new form of obstructionism.'' OK, great point but how do ''we'' stop this? Can ''we'' change the rules of the Senate? Can ''we'' register in red states and shrink the Republican presence in the Senate even more? Is there any hope for this ...

Conservative Libertarians for Health Reform!
Hey, if the insurance companies are supporting it, why not? In any case, with the Republicans turning the debate over health care reform into a Bugs-and-Daffy ''Duck season! Rabbit season!'' argument of perpetual naysaying, a lot of important messages aren't getting across. Case in point? A strong public health insurance option is a ...

Is Glenn Beck hoping to incite an act of extreme violence?
I think Glenn Beck is hoping he can get one of his viewers to ''act out'' and ''do it''. Just listen to his words of incitement.

Diversity is a disease
The bottom line is fear...fear that a black man (that happens to be the President of the United States) is going to have an influence in their children...it reminds me of other fears...fear that a black man is going to rape white women...fear that white children play with black children as if theywould get some type of disease...How can people ...

Joe Wilson’s “You Lie!”
At the heart of Rep. Wilson’s outburst is racism, pure and simple. When he, and some others, look at Obama, they see a black man, not POTUS. Barack Obama has always acted in a very dignified manner. He is not confrontational as was, say, FDR. He deserves our respect and civility. The attempts to de-legitimize his presidency are based ...

Re: Good article but what is Obama's problem?
Republicans don't want a health care bill. They feel that everything is fine the way it is. The very idea of public healthcare goes against their entire philosophy. For Republicans, dog-eat-dog is the only way. They've got their minds made up and are not willing to try to look at the other side of this or any other issue. While weak, the ...

U.S. government DOES put a value on human life
The federal government does indeed put a value on human life. Doesn't anyone remember around a year ago when the Bush administration took heat for lowering the value of a human life by almost $1 million? These figures were used by the EPA when evaluating the cost-benefit of various proposed rules and ...
