Good morning Kossacks and welcome to Morning Open Thread.
We're here every morning at 6:30 a.m Eastern time. Feel free to volunteer to take a day - permanent or just once in awhile. With the autopublish feature you can set it and forget it. Quite often the diarist de jour shows up much later (like me), that's the beauty of Open Thread...it carries on without you! Just let us know in the comments.
Well, I still don't know how to embed video, and I couldn't find anything in the FAQ's. But I had the 'good luck' to be approached for an interview by a local TV station late last week about the Susan G. Komen fiasco.
Video here.
Of course they cut my comments to shreds, and never really got my point, which was that politics does not belong in medical care of any kind. If I had just seen the video link in legalchic's diary a few days ago, I could have referred the TeeVee people to it. Of course I should have realized that my interview would be chopped to bits.
All I know is that I won't be doing any more pink cancer walks, or buying anything pink. (Not that I did much of that anyway, but a pink food processor? Really?!>) I'll be looking very carefully at where I give my money, using Betty Pinson's diary from a few days ago as a reference. I want breast cancer, and all cancer to be cured, not used as a reason to pad the bank accounts of greedy people.
That's all for today. Jibber jabber.
