To do something on behalf of the public option (which is being considered during the back-and-forth over the "blow job to the insurance industry" otherwise known as the Baucus bill - hey, complain about that potty mouth Bill Maher, who rightly characterized the bill as such), click here.
(And as always, the "Republican-lite" wing of Baucus, Conrad, Mark Pryor, Tom Carper, etc. isn't giving Dean the time of day - a "huge backlash" without the P.O. indeed)...
Update 9/29/09: Baucus, Conrad, Bill Nelson, Lincoln, Carper - scum, the whole sorry lot (it should be noted, though, that Nelson and Carper voted for Schumer's amendment allowing for the public option, though both amendments failed...and Olympia "Lucy Holding The Football" Snowe did exactly what anyone with a brain thought she would do).
...and just as a reminder, here is what we're up against (is it my imagination, or does Bob (Screw The UAW) Corker ring the sanctimony bell as loud as Joe "The Last Honest Man" Lieberman here?)...
...and I know this is news, and I usually stay out of legal matters since it's not a specialty of mine, and it's not for me to say what should happen one way or the other, but I just think the verdict of the victim, who has expressed forgiveness (and my guess is that it's because she's tired of living with the whole sideshow) should be taken into account (this of course is from "Chinatown" - a fine film from perhaps U.S. film's greatest era, IMHO...is it too weird of a twist, after watching this, to know that Polanski committed his act 31 years ago in Nicholson's house?)...
...and RIP Lucy Vodden (here - I read somewhere long ago that the Fab Four weren't happy about the movie at first, but they "changed their tune" when it started making money...also, hopefully this will focus more attention on lupus).
