Greenspan

So, Greenspan says he was 70% accurate. He is a professional, as am I. If I were 70% accurate in my profession, I would be disgraced and drummed out of my profession. Let's ignore this dope and let him sink back into ignominy.

Robert Rubin claims he was unaware of the subprime problem. Americans suffrered and he walks with millions and millions. Talk about being rewarded for incompentency! He should be tarred and feathered on Trinity Place!

The health plan will go down in flames

Once again, the country lacks the political will to go forward on some sort of much needed health plan. There are so many negative forces. The bishops who would sacrifice a plan because of abortion, yet were silent about the deaths of 4000 young people caused by the Bush/Cheney lies. The bishops decry abortion and yet also decry condoms and birth control. As a physician and a father and grandfather, I think abortion is a terrible decision, but so is unplanned pregnancy. Where was Rep. Stupak and his ilk when votes to commit our troops to foreign wars were held? Speaking of hypocrisy!!

The republicans would vote no on any democratic proposal. I believe that most of the negative around Obama is pure and simple racism. They will not let our African-American president look good. Well folks, he is a breath of pure air after the stench of Bush and Cheney.

I have decided to resume my blog. There is so much going on in this greatest country that ever was, that I won't run out of things to comment about. I remain an ardent Obama supporter. That said , I am very disappointed in his presidency to date. He bit off too much and his attention has been scattered. He should have left off health care until he had built up more political capital. No one understands the whole bill (of 2700 pages). The doctors are screwed, the free choicers are sacrificed on the altar of anything to get the bill passed, and the insurers and other fat cats will win another victory.
