Bureaucratic boobs

Sister Toldjah nails the mammogram story ("Obama admin starts its health care 'cost cutting' measures")which probably could not come at a worse time for Obama and the Democrats as they prepare to foist government-run (aka "single-payer," "universal," "socialized," "public" etc.) healthcare on Americans. Nonetheless, the story reminded me of an interesting NYTimes article I came across a couple weeks ago--"Cancers Can Vanish Without Treatment, but How?". . . about studies which reflect that early and often cancer screens may be catching cancers that would otherwise disappear on their own.

Healthcare is complicated stuff . . . it's comforting to think that gov't bureaucrats may soon be making all these decisions for us, huh?

Can't blame them for wanting to cut on costs when the estimates are this high: http://www.pressdisplay.com/pressdisplay/showlink.aspx?bookmarkid=DSFATJZMT626&preview=article&linkid=3f8e0d31-6916-40a2-b0d1-192ab2f58f15&pdaffid=ZVFwBG5jk4Kvl9OaBJc5%2bg%3d%3d
