All you really need is a television--get a different Doctor doesn't matter what he thinks so long as he'll prescribe whatever drug you ask him for. Since I used to write the marketing copy for several drugs (mostly to doctors, though, only a few times to consumers), I wouldn't trust a word I heard about pharmaceuticals on TV. I don't think that is limited to only drugs. Marketer = professional liar = Political candidate. |

They just use the movies you play in your head to make you think of something other than what they're actually telling you. d8-) -- Ed Huntress |

Tigers? Mine are Yankees, and Kane County Cougars. Oh, yeah. Obama has a good feel for mass communication, no doubt about it. He's a natural. Now we'll see what he's able to do with it. -- Ed Huntress |

Well, I haven't wore a baseball and cap in years. I like a Tilley myself. http://www.tilley.com/ I need to send mine in to see if their guarantee is real or not. Oh, yeah. Obama has a good feel for mass communication, no doubt about it. He's a natural. Now we'll see what he's able to do with it. We are in the rubber meets the road part of the Presidency. While D's are not my preference, I'll hold off and wait before judgment, he sure is having problems with filling posts. Maybe that is a good thing if his people are doing a good job of vetting candidates. Jon Stewart skewered Daschel last night btw. That 86 political add with the old car was priceless. Wes |

Wes This is the strangest set of circumstances we've faced with a new presidency in many decades. I wouldn't predict the outcome, but I'm thankful that he doesn't seem to be the kind of guy who makes a bad decision and then stubbornly sticks to it, all the while denying that he made a mistake. -- Ed Huntress |

Well, I grant you that one but I have a feeling he wishes he had a Congress that has the same philosophy. Wes |
