Heresies Out Loud

I dunno. Without having looked at all the details, I have a completely different take on the two big news items of this weekend:

Iranian President Ahmadinejad wants to lay a wreath at Ground Zero. Why not take the opportunity to show him what 9/11 did to some American families? Perhaps have a few surviving families there, or some survivors of the actual attack. He's a Holocaust denier, perhaps have some tatooed Holocaust survivors there, too. Perhaps the man is hopelessly lost in his doctrinal ideology, and he can overlook the pain in the faces of those people and still harbor hate in his heart. But, then, maybe not. Wouldn't that be a positive development?

Hillary's health insurance plan seems not so bad to me. One adjustment -- allow people to opt out, with the knowledge that they can never use government funds (e.g., Medicaid) or free hospital services -- and call it a day. That Hillary has backed off her 90s-style Rube Goldberg HillaryCare is a (relative) win in my book.

Bob, I think you are dead wrong about Hillary's health care plan. Sure, opting out of any federal health care scheme would be nice, but it is not going to happen because all of the healthy people would opt out and the sick people would stay in.
