...physician of 25 years, I have learned that "truth" in medicine is a fleeting concept. Although pediatric vaccines with full-dose thimerosal were no longer allowed to be made for sale in the U.S. after 2001, those stocks already in distribution or purchased could be used until their expiration date, as late as 2003. The influenza vaccine, which has been strongly pushed for children, still contains thimerosal in some available doses. I am not antivaccine, but the way in which vaccines are currently applied is causing many undue harm. Gregory L. Brown, RACINE...
...your tour guide decides what you see. In Iraq today, as in Vietnam back then, the tour guides are America's officers and diplomats on the ground. And in Iraq, as in Vietnam, they have an incentive to show good news--which isn't always the same as the truth...
...quite a speech. Obama's narrow but apparently decisive lead at the end of the primary season is merely a figment of the "pundits and naysayers," Sen.

Well, if Moses was able to find the Promised Land after 40 years in the desert, then certainly we can renew the cause after wandering...
...been there to hear it. I know how she would have reacted a year ago: with an awkward chill, a brisk Methodist propriety. These days, though, I imagine Clinton would have thrown back her head and guffawed. And maybe said something like "Ain't that the truth." That has been Hillary Clinton's story this year: she has learned how to be at ease with people like Margaret Dinock, and has come to believe that she - and only she - can adequately represent them in the White House. She mentions them in every speech. Actually, it's more than that: they...
