Evan Bayh has not endorsed Woody and it is shameful that Woody is falsely trying to give that impression. Senator Bayh did endorse Andre Carson in the special election. I dont know if that endorsement included the primary or not but on March 11, Andre Carson was Bayh's candidate.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3126825064641092276.post-1581438575165677652008-05-03T16:59:00.000-04:002008-05-03T16:59:00.000-04:00Good analysis, Chris.

In addition, he posits that the ideal system is what they have at Ford in which all denial of care appeals are handled by <I>internal</I> review -- essentially meaning that patients would have no recourse beyond their own HMO. Perhaps Dr. Myers can try to argue that he is for <I>a</I> Patients' Bill of Rights, but he certainly wasn't for Dingell-Kennedy, the legislation proposed by Congressional Democrats and opposed by Congressional Republicans.<BR/><BR/>Love the blog.<BR/><BR/>-TyTyrionhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04978671108982455034noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3126825064641092276.post-53983650219782443042008-05-03T16:01:00.000-04:002008-05-03T16:01:00.000-04:00Poor Woody......$1.7 million and he cant get anyth...Poor Woody......$1.7 million and he cant get anything right.artfugginshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05364503656694166926noreply@blogger.com
