Tuesday update

- A very important article here about doctors who are refusing to treat patients who don't take care of themselves. I believe that a socialist health care system subsidizes poor behaviour. I'm all for choice, but in Canada, if you make certain choices (overdrinking, overeating, smoking, and choosing to live a sedentary lifestyle rather than an active one), others are expected to pay for it. I don't think that's fair. To me, people should be allowed the choice to do with themselves what they like, but at the same time, they should be the ones who have to cover the cost of the eventual medical treatments related to those choices.

- Unlike the man he beat in January, our Prime Minister's life goal isn't to obtain and keep power. I'd also say that's a big reason for his success. This is going to resonate with Canadians bigtime.

- If groups like this represent a significant constituency, why are they dependent on taxpayers for funding?

- Katie Couric: Who cares?

- Dick Cheney gave over $7 million to charity last year. I can't wait to find out how much Michael Moore gave. It's obviously going to be a higher amount than the VP gave, if only because our boy Mikey cares more than those evil Republicans.

- And that being said, it's time for a reminder of Rumsfeld's Rules.
