"Shorter lake and river ice seasons confirm global warming
Records from riverboat captains, Shinto monks and others dating to the 15th century confirm a dramatic warming trend in the Earth's recent history, scientists said today.

Studying climate observations from dozens of sites in the Northern Hemisphere, an international team of researchers concluded that temperatures have risen steadily for at least 150 years.

They compiled data on lake and river ice cover from newspaper articles, business journals and individual diaries, some as far back as 1443. Piecing together a historic portrait, the researchers said the Northern Hemisphere has experienced increasingly shorter winter seasons since 1840. "..........GORE IS FOR ENVIRONMENT, BUSH IS ????????? Bush probably thinks global warming is when you put a warm compress on your eye!

Led the nation in patient and provider protections with health insurance reforms including:

Allowing patients to appeal denials of care to an independent review panel and in some cases sue their HMO if they are hurt because the HMO denied or delayed the approval of necessary medical treatment.

Giving women direct access to their obstetricians and gynecologists and ensuring women will be covered for a minimum of 48-hours in the hospital after giving birth.

Requiring health plans that cover mastectomy or related procedures to allow patients 48 hours inpatient care following a mastectomy and coverage for reconstructive surgery after a mastectomy.

Ensuring doctor choice by giving employees the right to choose their own doctor, even outside their health plan, so long as they are willing to pay additional costs of that coverage.

This Blumenthal is a real a-hole. He hates seeing people being taken care of. If the HMO's are sued, then you'll have even more uninsured because they'll get out of the business. Blumenthal is the same smirking jerk who was leading the bogus case against Microsoft. He's another lawsuit happy lawyer. Prepare to pay out your ass for insurance if the suit is successful, for shittier care, as we see what doctors are like based on Dr. Dimwit who visits us here from the healthy mecca of Philadelphia, where the teachers don't give a damn about the students.knc
