This board was a brilliant idea. Top ten investigations into George W. Bush over the next four years will include: 10. Drug abuse 9. Lengthy binge moonshine drinking with Texas right-wing pals 8. Date rape accusations from Condoleeza Rice 7. Excessive gifts,including assault weapons from Rick Wagoner and Jack Welch 6. Hand-written notes to Hillary reading, "My wife hates what you did with the Lincoln Room. Kiss my butt!" 5. Hand-written notes to Rev. Jesse Jackson reading, "How do you like your chicken wings cooked?" 4. Blood-stained clown costume found in the oval office. 3. Getting caught on all fours wearing nothing but tight whites in Bob Dole's bathroom. 2. Congratulatory note and basket of bon-bons from Milosevic. 1. Congratulatory note and basket of nuclear secrets from Wen Ho Lee.

I'm not sure that I agree thta it will do less harm. It would allow more money to go to pharmaceutical profits but less to the hospitals and doctors (since there is only so much money to spend). The effect is already closing lots of hospitals. Its already true that doctors and hospitals with risk contracts are not prescribing the new medications. I think that some sort of drug plan is critical but without a balance there will be an incentive to not offer the new drugs.
