More notes than posts….a few notes that I took and did not attempt a post with them.  Sopme the thoughts are more disturbing than others…but I include them anyway.

1–When John Edwards got a $400 haircut the right was all over it with both feet, but now the report is that a haircut that was given to Gov. Sanford of South Carolina had a total cost of over $1000.  I am listening for the GOP outrage….all quiet on the political front.

2–The CEO of United Health Group makes in the neighborhood of $102,00 an hour.  Once again….$102,000 an hour.

3–What is the point of bite size burgers?

4–the people being the most vocal at townhalls are the people who most likely get government health care…the elderly.

5–Why do governments, state, local and fed, destroy drug hauls?  Why not make it a law that it has to be bought by drug companies for the making of drugs?  Gee, think of the cash they would make.

6–Back in 1990, Pres. Bush 1 visited my area and was escorted down a highway.  I was driving in my truck with a pellet rifle in a rack and was pulled over and detained until the pres went by.  And yet some moron with his extension of his manhood, a Glock was across the street from a presidential meeting holding a sign that said  “the tree of liberty should be watered with the blood of tyrants”.  And he was allowed in public and not detained….in his defense he had a license for his gun and I did not have one for my pellet gun…..and maybe it was because I had a bumper sticker that read, “help beautify America…shoot a redneck”.  It is said that this guy left before the pres arrived…maybe that is what saved him from detention.

7–I have heard that 85% of the population are pleased with their health care provider and then I have heard that there is 46 million people that are uninsured…which is it?  Is there some sort of disconnect here?  I did a little research and they are the same basic stat just it is viewed from a different perspective.

8–Would we be having this much debate on health care if there had already been reform on the amount of money that corporations give to candidates?  I mean if these guys were not being paid by the health industry would they be so dead set against reform?

9–Did MSNBC’s Hardall’s Chris Matthews get time off for chastizing the gun toting protester in New Hampshire.,..after all he did say. “you were carrying a goddamn gun……”?  Bad Chris!
