A correct horoscope at last !

I have campaigned against your daily horoscope but I will

    desist after reading my horoscope today - for Leo ( Oct. 30 )

       " ... You exude sex appeal: Don't break too many hearts. "

           Out of concern for my own heart a pretty teen age girl

    held a Providence Mall door open for me !

               And I am just as young as Bill Clinton .

Shockingly undemocratic Times Editorial

            The New York Times editorial showing complete contempt

    for presidential candidate Ralph Nader (   How EGOTISTICAL of

    anybody but an endorsed Democrat or Republican to seek the

    highest office in the land - even if inspired by PRINCIPLE ,

    and against impossible odds ! ) was the  most foolish New

    York Times editorial since you ridiculed Robert Goddard's

     experimental rocket . " Nothing to push against " , you

    see. Ignoring Isaac Newton , ACTION & REACTION .

           But despite the Times editorial Goddard's rocket did

    soar. And Ralph Nader's third party might also take off and

    become a truly  REVOLUTIONARY phenomenon . It does have

    something to PUSH AGAINST - a lot of REACTION !

            Don't quit now , Ralph ! To Hell with Gore !

Health benefits for the healthy

Eights weeks after his wife was diagnosed with cancer,

    she lost her health insurance. Richard Addison - age 60 - himself

    living on $700 from  social security - is pictured wiping a tear

    from his eye ( page A6 , Pawtucket Times - Oct. 27 ) .

               Now there is already a $40,000 medical bill from

    Memorial Hospital.

               Al Gore does not have much to say anymore about

    " grandiose " national health care plans. Woopie for 8 years

    of Clinton-Gore prosperity ! Woopie for GOOD TIMES !

               Poverty activist , Henry Shelton, faces the truth :

    the have nots of the world -so much more numerous than the haves -

    must unite .  Yes, forget about the phony liberals. Maybe

    Patrick Kennedy will send Addison and his sick wife a sympathy

    card.

                 Isn't this system just wonderful : Health Insurance

    for the Healthy !

              And don't think that " compassionate conservatives " -like

    George W. Bush - lose sleep at night  trying to solve the health

    care problems of the poor .

                 Just a sigh and a " Let us pray ! "


            I know of one mentally ill man who also lost his health

    insurance not long after the crackpot.  Now he pays even more

    for his lithium - out of his own pocket, while working only

    3 days per week.


                 Woopie for our prosperity ! Greed and selfishness

    forever ! That's God's Way !

Texas education - please no bull !

 If Texas kids who are classified as black or hispanic

    do quite well on standardized tests , that can only reflect well

    on the school system there - whatever the vagaries of that just

    released Rand Institution - " think tank " - report.

             If a latino or black pupil scored 600 + on an SAT test , we

    can assume that he or she really did learn something academic in

    high school. And not just test foxiness !

              I could not in good conscience vote for George W. But

    Republicans should not lose an election on the basis of baloney

    from big education bureaucrats.

             In general CONSERVATIVES have many sound ideas on the

    education of the young.

             I'll will probably vote for Ralph Nader . But can only

    accept the democratic process - flawed as it is.
