1. He is doing a great job
The information that he is bringing forth should dispel all of the fears of "socialized" medicine.
The one thing that I was shocked about was the VA system. Do you think it is by accident that we are all led to believe that it is a shoddy system? And why do we never hear about them having the highest patient approval ratings?

7. Amazing. Wasn't there a Walter Reed expose last year, earlier this year.
Makes sense about lifetime care and wellness. Interesting solution about some of these "St Elsewhere" hospitals about to close.

8. O'Donnell getting better about reading the cues, but Dean and Wolfe will quickly learn. Howard is so
good at the actual interviewing.

10. You know as a hospital employee myself
I could tell you horror stories about things I have seen first hand in top-ranked hospitals, not to mention the stories my coworkers tell about things they have seen.
It makes complete sense about the same docs following you for your entire life and that it is cost-effective to keep people healthy. Which is why they are cost-effective.
I can imagine a very fine healthcare system that included the county run hospitals who habitually struggle with the costs of providing care to a large indigent population. It makes perfect sense to make those hospitals healthy.

9. He's stiff -
I feel for the guy, stuck there with the teleprompter.

But, I've been wondering - when did Dr. Dean go blond? He looks silly, with that clump of hair on top of his head.

He was perfectly fine as a silver fox. Someone gave him BAD cosmetic advice.

He's great, though, regardless of what he does with his hair......................

17. I never supported him for President,
and I'm glad he got out of that race - although he got a raw deal - that video of hm exhorting his followers was given such a scandalously unfair gloss by the tightass M$M, I hope he still hates them as much as I do.

But he wasn't equipped to be President, lacking the experience, as we're discovering Obama is lacking. As a truthteller and a reminder and a Greek chorus, Dr. Dean has no peer.

He is perfect, and I am always thrilled when I can listen to him.............................

19. Dean was governor for over a dozen years when he ran
he was the longest serving governor in the entire country at the time. He had his faults but a lack of experience wasn't one of them.

21. That's not adequate -
coming to DC and dealing with Congress, that experience would have served him not at all.

Dealing with the US Congress is different from anything else.

He certainly didn't lack experience - as I pointed out (read carefully, will you?), he lacked the proper experience......................
