I use the epithet Bruno and Tony not as some Italian slur, but because so many parodies have equated that name set with anybody at all using tactics like "got a nice fill in the blank, I'd hate to see anything happen to it, like my clumsy brudder dere breakin' tings, but wese could make sure nuttin happened as long as youse plays ball our way"...i.e., inducing cooperation over things which may only benefit those offering to save folks from what offerors created. Perhaps that's what Senator Reid too had in mind when he decided Rush Limbaugh's opinions cannot matter, and otherwise, when he said he'd use a lag between SCHIP veto and override vote to apply pressure to the GOP over something that really wouldn't deliver as promised no matter WHO was for it.  

 

Lately, there seems a non-Conservative resurgence in the amorphous Katrina victims, and how from businesses to individuals they still lack homes, jobs, capital to restart anywhere, with emphasis on New Orleans; well, Louisiana has Democrat control and loves to stomp all over remaining US Senator Vitter (R-LA), in fact it has a woman Democrat Governor at all relevant times, yet to date not once has Louisiana said "look, we spent this doing this for New Orleans people before the well-forecast Katrina/Rita hit, so why won't Bush pay our bill?", nor has ANY Democrat or non-Conservative said "look, we've gone ahead and spent this money to rebuild victims' lives, businesses, and jobs, so why won't Bush pay our bills?". It seems the point is that not even non-Conservatives would spend a cent on such victims, but somehow their refusal to do so should be the President's responsibility and not theirs.

 

Then, as exemplified on this Sunday's "Sixty Minutes", based on the new inituitions alone of billionaires like Soros and his MoveOn.org together with the same of anti-war record seller Bruce Springsteen, such ESP is vibing that torture of terrorists or combatants may still be practiced even if no one can see it...ha ha, meanie Bush, what if that kind of mumbo jumbo is exported as further claptrap to undecut Iraq progress and our troops? See, sometimes you've got to hurt troops to prove you love them and respect their service toward a goal...or so some seem to tell us. In any event, this tangental attack on the GOP has the added inference that most Americans feel so badly over combatant treatment, all everyone already here wants to do is sure...grouse over Presidential salaries even mere Mayors like Daley write themselves while producing little more than blame of opponents as causation, but come on...what USA national or immigrant wouldn't want to throw open borders and give everyone a government-owned or subsidized home and only government healthcare; you can see how that's our only chance to grow those businesses and farms so new local taxes won't be the problem they now seem. To intone Bruno and Tony anew, youse kin sees how wese has a viable solution to da mess youse is now in and dat wese don't wanna stop even if wese get in next year.

 

Well, since such malarkey is aimed at hoping to sour the global population on Bush so SCHIP can usher in government healthcare as THE only care for anyone at all, let's take a fresh look at how well Democrats on much advance notice to boot would look out for the health of just one City, let alone the entire USA.

 

This Sunday, there was the annual Chicago Marathon; the temperature that day was 86 degrees Fahrenheit, blazing sun all day. Now, you'd think what with the Obama, Durbin, Ari and Rahm Emanuel, Mayor Daley, and absolute Democrat State Executive/Legislative pastiche going for you, such folks could just snap their fingers and ensure stepped-up sponsor and otehr water, fluids, cooling station supplies, cooling stations, what have you. But that didn't happen, and you know what City and event folks are saying? Basically, that the number of participants overwhelmed the system on admission that supplies were on hand only for a day under 70 degrees; so why postpone anything or snap your mighty Democrat fingers and make it be so that sufficient support services exist?

 

That would be the gold standard of medical cogency anyone could expect under Democrats and their envisioned Socialist society, and it doesn't seem very inviting as a way to coax more immigration or business; neither does declaring Sanctuary City or State just to infer all immigrants appear of sullied character but Bruno or Tony can save them if they play ball.

 

Wherefore, I defer to William H. Frist MD in my interest as someone best making amplifications on SCHIP worries.
