...other industrialized nation allows their children to live in poverty and not to have health care," Edelman said. "Children don't vote...don't make campaign contributions and so haven't had a strong voice...
...warn each other against getting wrapped up in their June successes, as September's swoon or October's shortfall will burden the heart unnecessarily. My mother, for one, tries very hard to stay aloof each year. May, June, July she will counsel Dad, me, Kevin and Gail not to care. Dad will have the game on NESN and Mom will emphatically read her mystery novel on the other couch, paying no attention until the final out is made and she can get a "Law and Order" rerun on A&E. August, she'll start to be be aware...
...plan that Gore unveiled in early September--more limited than Bradley's--focuses on the elderly and children and attempts to cover no more than a third of America's 45 million uninsured.

Nothing much, nothing new here, unless you care to study how the fingernails of time have raked across Terence Stamp's still handsome face, or see Peter Fonda playing the cool drug lord his Easy Rider character might have become. As he did in Out of Sight, Soderbergh slices, dices and Cuisinarts the script into flashbacks, scene shifts, stop motion and other distracting foolery. Is he working out a new form of visual storytelling, or has the ever-so-promising director...
