The BRIGHT RED is BAD and the BRIGHT GREEN is GOOD. The matrix grid is really quite festive. I wish it had more green though.

Points of interest on Hillary

The Economy - "Clinton has yet to offer detailed proposals on the economy."

If not now, when? Never? After elected? Or perhaps proposals will be offered in her second term. She plans to deal with health care in her second term.

"Clinton promsies universal health care by the end of her second term."

All that talk about what you WON'T do for Americans and how you WON'T stand up to the health insurance interests will be heard again during your re-election campaign. However, sorry Hillary, but by then, we will have figured out how awful you really are on health care (if we Americans haven't already) and ignore you.

Points of Interest on Barack

The Economy - "Obama propose spending $250 million dollars a year on public-private business "incubators" to help entrepreneurs create start-up companies.

In other words, baby Enrons and Worldcoms to save America's dying economy. I do not think this proposal could be more Republican.

Health Care - "Obama promises to reform the private insurance market to promote competition in pricing and equality."

Looks good on paper but it's impossible. You cannot teach these HMOs to put people before profits. If Michael Moore cannot scare them into caring about the people they provide insurance for, you, Barack, won't be able to.

Points of Interest on Edwards

Health Care - "He would require all Americans by law to obtain health insurance."

Even if your insurance won't cover you, an Edwards administration would mean you have to pay for coverage. And if you cannot afford it, well, that's too bad.

Points of Interest on Biden

Health Care - "Biden plans to develop a plan for full coverage of every American within six months of taking office."

I guess he expects us to take him at his word that he cares about the health care of Americans. Why not just support H.R. 676 since you cannot formulate a plan yet, Joe? Oh, that's right. You'd like to keep the for-profit industry flourishing.

Check out Dodd's, Gravel's, and especially Kucinich's blurbs on these five issues for what really should be done on these issues.
