Knowing when to go to the Doctor a really important choice. I'd like to partner with a Doc someday on writing that research paper; as every encounter with the Health Care system carries risk. Knowing when to engage the system a critical choice. The Doctor, Insurer, and everyone else in the process has a right to pick you too. If a Doc can't treat you, it's his/her choice to say so and transition your care. Worry about costs? If you don't (or your insurer doesn't worry about them) you'll bankrupt the system eventually. All life is trade offs between costs and benefits. It's part of being human. Picking your Doctor an important choice. Knowing when to go to the Doctor a really important choice.

Palin says he knows how to win a war.If that's true, she must be talking about his study of wars of the past. "History". We can all study these wars and determine the way they were won or lost. If McCain knows how to win in Iraq and has been withholding this information from the President and the Military, I suspect he may be guilty of some crimes not the least of which is the sacrifice of the lives of all those American and Allied troops who have lost their lives in Iraq since McCain became aware of the "how this war could be won"!

There are a lot issues, sure, and anti-racism was a major controversy in YRUU (back when there was YRUU), but there was never that level of exclusion.
