    Let’s elect blue-collar people who’ll represent us

    I hope come the next November election the people/voters realize,

    regardless of the change promised in this past year’s election it’s still

    the “Old Boys’ Club.” The only way we can show the “old boys” we mean business when we say we want change is to vote all the incumbents who are running for re-election out of office. Let’s elect the blue collar people who will fight for real change and the middle class. No more special interests! Do what’s right for America!

    Get to the bottom of Bush, Cheney scandals

    It should have been Congress’s duty to impeach Bush and Cheney when we had the chance. Now it’s up to us to demand that justice be done. Please support Sen. Leahy in his efforts to get to the bottom of the scandals (e.g., funding of Cheney’s Halliburton buddies at taxpayer expense) and untruths/half-truths told by the previous administration during the prosecution of the illegal wars. Above all, we should hold the Bush and Cheney administration accountable and prosecutable.

    Insurance bureaucracies bog down doctor offices

    Please pass HR 676! As a family physician, I say we need relief from the bureaucratic nightmare that bogs us down in our offices with all the different payers and their different specialty networks, formularies, prior authorization rules, etc., and takes us away from caring for patients. The single-payer solution is simple, and will cut the huge expense of the administrative waste we have now.

    — Dr. Linda Prine, Manhattan
