Caryle, Obviously, our President is not a "compassionate" conservative. He doesn't care about you or me. He is well, his family is well, he has money............he has been very, very lucky. One thing I have always admired about Chris Reeve is that he recognizes how hard it is for people in his position w/out his financial means. My next door 80+ year old neighbor had ovarian cancer like me, but her 20 year old granddaughter died from a brain tumor. She said then we became those "other" people to whom terrible things happen. Bush doesn't understand this and I don't think he ever will. pls note, I am not attacking anyone on the List, but our President is a negative factor re our health. I believe I have the right to say so.
