Big Pharma's Senator



I have a question: why are the Democrats keeping Lieberman? He has vowed to not vote for a bill that contains a robust (or otherwise) Public Option. He is trying to position himself as the make or break vote, and that is insane! Everyone know good ol' Joe is bought and paid for by Big Pharma. As Keith points out, "He has had a different reason [for opposing the bill] each month since June." Does anyone on the Democratic side truly believe Joe is a Democrat? If so we need to really rush health care so they can get their heads checked! The public option is the only way to make sure insurance company's do not continue to abuse consumers. Without it, this will just be another huge give-a-way to the companies, which are already making money hand over fist. Sen. Lieberman, why do you despise the American people? Why do you believe people in this nation should suffer and die from lack of health care? Please Dems! Push him out! take away his seat and any other positions he holds. He is not good for the American people, and he is not good for the Dem. Party. If the Dems fail on health care, there is nothing else they can do to win American's hearts or minds. Come on! Get serious, and stop being scared. Jeez! Fight back, starting with the party traitor!!!

Facebook Bra Color "Scandal"

I have had it with the hoopla over the Facebook Status update. In 2000 my 43 year-old mother died from breast cancer. When I saw the email on FB, it warmed my heart because at the very least, Breast Cancer was on the minds of those forwarding the message and changing their status. I gladly changed my status. My mother had a double mastectomy, but she had a wonderful doctor who helped her get bras that gave her "breasts" and she felt so much better. Everyday, as a young mother, I worry about my risk for developing cancer and I worry about the risk my daughters may face. Breast cancer does not only belong to those who have experienced it alone. It belongs to the mothers, daughters, sisters, cousins, friends, etc. of us all, and any thing that will make it a topic of discussion is fine by me. Of course, changing your FB status won't resolve the cancer issue, but it will get young women talking about this very serious illness. When my mother developed breast cancer, there was...

Air America ceases to be...company to file Chapter 7

If you go to airamerica.com the following letter is what you will find. I am so sad! It is with the greatest regret, on behalf of our Board, that we must announce that Air America Media is ceasing its live programming operations as of this afternoon, and that the Company will file soon under Chapter 7 of the Bankruptcy Code to carry out an orderly winding-down of the business. The very difficult economic environment has had a significant impact on Air America's business. This past year has seen a "perfect storm" in the media industry generally. National and local advertising revenues have fallen drastically, causing many media companies nationwide to fold or seek bankruptcy protection. From large to small, recent bankruptcies like Citadel Broadcasting and closures like that of the industry's long-time trade publication Radio and Records have signaled that these are very difficult and rapidly changing times. Those companies that remain are facing audience fragment...

Where are our priorities?

The ice caps are melting, the Earth set to boil, one supposed Democratic Senator is dead-set on denying millions of Americans affordable healthcare, the country remains at war, Main Street is still in a Recession...etc...etc.. but none of that seems to matter at all. At least that is the feeling I get when watching mainstream media. The 24 hour news cycle has become little more than a tabloid magizine with tiny interjections of real news. I can't say "Breaking News" because at this point, "Breaking News" consists of the latest Tiger Woods mistress declaring she has a broken heart! MS_BC, FOX _EWS Channel, _BC, C_N, HL_, and C_BC, are all missing something very important: NEWS! I have begun watching BBC America in the morning to find out what is going on in the world. The airways are chock full of pundits, experts, and insiders but none of them are saying anything useful
