against the big guys....

require cases to be reviewed...hold lawyers responsible....three strikes and their out....

don't take away rights--telling swimming pool story-very very powerful...always stand with victims, not insurance co....

showing that tort reform not having a lot to do with rising medical costs....get to the point of what is really causing health care to rise..

10. hmmm
Marriage is between a man and a woman. Didn't see that coming. I'm glad he wants to protect the civil rights of gays, but he's not winning points on that one.

Well, he might with conservatives... :shrug:

Glad he's shellacking Bush on the Constitutional Amendment garbage.

Also nice to see one polite exchange between the two for a change.

54. I don't think so
the fact that cheney has a gay daughter and is part of an administration that tried to get an amendment in the constitution denying gays rights has been a big legitimate news story, so why not bring it up?

Besides, it made John look good by saying he is sure he loves his daughter, etc.

cheney didn't even have a response!

66. The reason for malpractice premiums going up is not lawsuits......
it's the insurance companies' investments doing crappily, thus they take it out on the doctors, but use the lawsuits as an excuse.

69. But insurance companies aren't going to lower rates on doctors
You can't just limit malpractice, you have to also rein in the insurance companies!

if not for liability insurance...yeah, and
probably at lower wages and benefits to the workers.

96. Good grief. Too much time spent on bullshit, not enough time spent on
substance. And it was designed this way. Edwards could really shine if Ifills would ask a decent question and without that smarmy tone in her voice when she talks to Edwards.

I HATE GWEN AWFULS!!!!!
