Next year, they will have another study.

When more people are poor, or poorer, and unable to afford Health Care, a study will conclude that medical mistakes are on the decline. Of course they will fail to mention that other causes of death are on the up-swing, due to unaffordable Health Care.

Be ready for it people. You heard it here 1st.

the oil will run out..when..I say in 10 to 15 years. May be sooner. I think gas will be 5/6 gollars by summer/fall. The rich don''t care. That war in the middle east is not helpping matters.

Less, meaning "fewer." Thanks, CBS, for the grammar rehash...

In other news, researchers have found that if people die during a famine there will be more food left over for the survivors. They cautioned, however, that more studies are needed. "Please send more research money, lots of it," one researcher added.

So, the Democrat Congress now has a reason to add even more taxes to gasoline.
