S.459 Breast Cancer Patient Protection Act of 2007
- Anonymous : "...hospitalization for a few days post surgery, at least until the drainage tubes can be removed by a professional."
Just a heads-up: drains are typically left in after a mastectomy for 1-3 weeks or more (one of mine was in over 6 weeks). Although annoying, drain maintenance doesn't require inpatient care.
- Anonymous : There seems to be an underlying theme hear that makes no sense to me; does more days in the hospital mean more compasion? I have known women who express and read comments from others, of 24 hour stays as "adequate", as well as, women comparing Lipo and Tucks to be as severe as mastectomy in pain and dabilitation. I experienced out patient surgery on my knee where I was up and gone 4 hours after surgery with drains, limited mobility and severe pain for 5 days, not to mention the weeks of therapy that was brutal. Rather than cherry pick 100's of procedures that need "political compassion" I would support Doctor's be given legal authority to practice medicine, period! Consider this, if we had the $700 billion we export to OPEC for oil each year spent on health care, this would not be an issue.

H.R.2060 Internet Radio Equality Act
- Anonymous : Considering the crap the labels and "new" artists are offering, boredom and lack of talent ought to be reason enough to make sure this legislation passes. Until the RIAA realizes that internet radio listeners are looking for music that either is never played or the past "oldies" that had not only talent writing and performing, but also the demand that is there to re-release these albums on to CD's for the public to buy outright. Start to offer what the public wants then maybe the'll see their profits rise a bit. Then again, they also need to quit screwing artists out their fair share of the royalties and lying about their decreasing bottom line. RIAA tactics of late against those who were trading songs has recently come under fire by the courts since they are acting like militia's without any legal documents to allow them to just walk in and bust someone and their equipment. Boycotting the labels ought to be threatened. I think we can live with out Britney and the rest of the "Paris Hilton" drug and lesbian experimentation cartel.
