Does God Want Healthcare Reform? - (USA)
God weighs in on abortion, transgendered procedures and His position on Obamacare. Here is a feisty quote from the comments section after viewing the video clip: Isn’t funny how this is a “Christian” country when it comes to war, homosexuality, stem cell research, abortion, etc. But when it comes to the biggest biblical take? away (helping others) theres nothing…. There are 300+ biblical references about taking care of the sick, the hungry, the poor, the “least of these” yet where the

Safe or unsafe? - (USA)
I’m starting to get annoyed at Health Canada (HC) and the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) assessments that certain things are safe or unsafe for our infants or for the public at large. Both HC and the FDA say that trace amounts of melamine in infant formula is safe. The FDA contends that Bisphenol A (BPA) is safe, but HC says there is enough evidence that it is unsafe to pursue a ban of it in baby products. Both Canadian and American authorities contend that pesticides and genetically modif

Darfur Sudan activists' reactions to US Gration's statements (Enough Project, Jerry Fowler, Eric Ree - (USA)
Surely US Special Envoy to Sudan Scott Gration should not be criticised for acting boldly, wisely and positively while suggesting that US sanctions on Sudan ought to be lifted. How many more years do the Darfur rebels and activists expect the poor people of Sudan to endure living in concentration camps and being dependent on hand-outs, I wonder. If the rebels and activists get their way, and manage to stop US sanctions on Sudan from being lifted, imagine what future is in store for the Baby Mo

Why running can boost a company's bottomline - (USA)
You’re kidding me! Are you saying that if I start running, my organization is likely to have a healthier bottom line? That’s the most outrageous sales line I’ve heard!” Now that you have said that out loud, and got it off your chest, I would urge you to read on. You know what you pay your employees, but do you know how much your employees cost you?

Get Well: President Obama Fights the Growing War in the U.S. - (USA)
Posted by Bossip Staff Our President Obama has many fronts to fight during his term. He is addressing the Health Care Crisis we have right here in this country: The United States is fighting enemies in Iraq, Afghanistan and extremist cells around the world, but there is a much deadlier domestic threat facing President Barack Obama. It’s the fact that nearly 50 million Americans haven’t got enough money to see a doctor when they’re sick. By one government estimate 18,000 people die

First on the Ticker: Nelson buys TV time on health care - (USA)
Nebraska Sen. Ben Nelson, a centrist Democrat up for re-election in 2012, is out with a new ad on health care reform. WASHINGTON (CNN) - Under increasing pressure to support President Obama's approach to health care reform, Nebraska Sen. Ben Nelson has cut a new TV ad airing in his home state that explains his position on the issue. Nelson, a centrist Democrat, has come under fire from liberal organizations for not standing squarely behind Obama when it comes to health care. Dem

Democrats Now The Party In Denial - (USA)
It has only been a few short days since Congress went into summer recess, and yet it feels like forever. As opposition has mounted to the form and content and thrust of the liberal attack on our current health care system (including its access, quality and cost - only one of which is an issue to Americans) the Democrats have tried everything they can think of to pretend their not heading down the wrong path. Even to go as far as to create myths about their opposition and send out their own bul

Meet Obama-Care’s Astroturfers – HCAN - (USA)
As we have previously noted , the Associated Press is demonizing anti-Obama-care demonstrators as paid protesters, while they say nothing about those behind the pro-healthcare demonstrations. For instance: A demonstrator holds up a sign in support of a health care plan , in Lincoln, Neb., Monday, Aug. 3, 2009, just before a conservative political advocacy group, Americans for Prosperity, were to hold a rally to oppose the Democratic-led push to overhaul the country’s health-care sys

The Changing Face of Marketing? - (USA)
Last week, in a guest blog post at the Faculty Lounge , I suggested that corporate America has been behaving rather strangely recently. Oil companies have been touting investments in wind technology. Investment firms have been urging caution. Agriculture behemoths have been talking about conserving earth’s precious resources. And clothing companies, known for trading on sex, youth, and hipness, have been focusing their advertisements on the benefits that they provide to their workers.

Those Conspiracy Theories: Risk & Reward - (USA)
Last night on "Law & Order: Special Victims Unit," the prosecution was trying to nail a medical doctor. He denied his patients standard treatment for HIV and Aids. Why? As he told the court, he was convinced that the medical establishment and BigPharma cooked up that category of illness and drugs as part of a profit-making conspiracy. What the prosecution feared was that the jury would "love the conspiracy theory" and let the alleged miscreant off the hook. Fortunately, for the law and

Bad habit: Companies say Obama inflated promises again - (USA)

And once again, the b.s.’er-in-chief is using private industry to float inflating promises about the massive spending program.The health care companies have now publicly refuted Obama: Hospitals and
