RETREAT : White House appears ready to drop 'public option'

WASHINGTON – Apparently ready to abandon the idea, President Barack Obama's health secretary said Sunday a government alternative to private health insurance is "not the essential element" of the administration's health care overhaul.

The White House indicated it could jettison the contentious public option and settle on insurance cooperatives as an acceptable alternative, a move embraced by some Republicans lawmakers who have strongly opposed the administration's approach so far. . .

Canada-Top doctor says system 'imploding'

SASKATOON–The incoming president of the Canadian Medical Association says Canada's health-care system is sick and doctors need to develop a plan to cure it.

Dr. Anne Doig says patients are getting less than optimal care, and she adds that physicians from across the country – who will gather in Saskatoon today for their annual meeting – recognize that changes must be made.

"We all agree that the system is imploding, we all agree that things are more precarious than perhaps Canadians realize," Doig told The Canadian Press. . .

It's clear to me the "townhalls" are stacked in favor of Bambi. I cannot believe not one American has uttered Terri's name as a victim of a real death panel. Are people that ashamed that they were on Terri's side? What's their problem? That would be my question - why did you regret voting for Terri Schiavo and explain how she was not subjected to a death panel for all intents and purposes, Bambi?

Finally, George Soros' hemlockers WROTE the end of life provisions. It was George Soros' obsessed death cultists-social engineers (George Felos throw him in there too).
