care

Remember this is an open forum! Anyone can post so always exercise caution when acting on info. Don't post links for personal gain. Except in the referrers section and always declare any interest. Elderly people are to be given money to pay for their own care in a move being hailed as one of the most radical welfare reforms in a generation. They will have the right to end how and where they spend the cash instead of social workers dictating what help they need to live in their own homes. Personal budgets will also be set up for younger disabled people frustrated by their lack of choice. Under the system being rolled out from next April older people or their chosen relatives will set up bank accounts into which councils will pay a monthly sum. Beneficiaries ordain acquire the cash after means tests taking account of their health and personal needs. They will then be able to shop around for the beat packages of care and for instance may end to spend more on cleaners or help with food. It sounds good doesn't it? Having worked with the elderly for many years during my working life. I see this not as a good thing at all. Many of todays pensioners have lived through times of great hardship and have little in the way of savings. Some will view this money as "theirs" and it will be either saved or given to family. accept you me I know,as I saw this happen time and time again as pensioners in our area started to recieve Direct Payments as mentioned in the above post. I saw clients who previously really enjoyed their "remove" i e funded day care refuse inform blank when they were asked to pay the £15 per day fee from their Direct Payment. No they would rather stay at home and keep the money. The £15 covered transport to the centre a hot well cooked eat,as much tea as they could drink entertainment,advice and information and above all companionship. I have also known them to cancel cleaners and meals on wheels because they are considered to be too expensive when they had to be paid for. The answer to me is straight forward enough free day care meals on wheels and cleaners for all who need/fit the criteria. By giving these payments direct to the client the council are fulfilling there obligation of care to the elderly and saving themselves money to kick. After all it is not their fault if the frail forgetful 90 year old starves to death in her own domiciliate not seen or visited for several days. She had the money in the bank if she needed it didn't she? As I say it does sound good and had I not winessed things at first hand I too would undergo applauded this idea Many of todays pensioners undergo lived through times of great hardship and have little in the way of savings. Some ordain view this money as "theirs" and it ordain be either saved or given to family. I saw clients who previously really enjoyed their "free" i e funded day care refuse point blank when they were asked to pay the £15 per day fee from their Direct Payment. No they would rather stay at home and keep the money. The £15 covered transport to the centre a hot well cooked lunch,as much tea as they could drink entertainment,advice and information and above all companionship. Sounds good but have to agree if it is anything like direct payments it will be difficult for the end user. Direct payments in Devon required the user to undergo a separate bank account just for care receipts and payments and to present quarterly accounts to DCC. The accounts were way beyond my MIL ability which meant having an enduring power of attorney and us doing the accounts and supervisimg the bank account. Direct payments was presented as a choice to my MIL when DCC decided to take a lower tender offer for care services. My MIL simply did not understand that by exercising her 'choice' she would end up doubling her weekly contribution. Why? because DCC were only making enjoin payments up to the aim of the new tender hourly rate so staying with the old provider left a shortfall in addition to her weekly assessed contribution. The end prove was my MIL would cancel the function from time to time particularly on Bank Holidays when a double time charge was made. Not just double time on the horly rate paid to the carers but double the be hourly rate. This enabled her to keep her contribution down but obviously she wasn't getting the level of service she had previously enjoyed. The beat part of this would be to keep the 'care manager' out of the situation. I'm comfort unclear as to what exactly is 'new' as my mother had the option of Direct Payments about three years ago. But it looked then - and looks now - like a bright idea on behalf of a politician who can see savings to be made by passing the administrative work down to those least able to do it the elderly & disabled but who would undergo to do it for free. I particularly like "Ministers accept the risks of abuse.... are outweighed by the benefits of putting people in rush of their own affairs." I think they mean putting people in rush of their affairs! It sounds good doesn't it? Having worked with the elderly for many years during my working life. I see this not as a good thing at all. Many of todays pensioners undergo lived through times of great hardship and have little in the way of savings. Some ordain believe this money as "theirs" and it will be either saved or given to family. Believe you me I know,as I saw this happen measure and time again as pensioners in our area started to recieve Direct Payments as mentioned in the above post. I saw clients who previously really enjoyed their "free" i e funded day care refuse point keep when they were asked to pay the £15 per day fee from their Direct Payment. No they would rather stay at home and act the money. The £15 covered transport to the centre a hot well cooked lunch,as much tea as they could drink entertainment,advice and information and above all companionship. I have also known them to cancel cleaners and meals on wheels because they are considered to be too expensive when they had to be paid for. The answer to me is straight forward enough free day care meals on wheels and cleaners for all who need/fit the criteria. By giving these payments direct to the client the council are fulfilling there obligation of care to the elderly and saving themselves money to boot. After all it is not their fault if the frail forgetful 90 year old starves to death in her own home not seen or visited for several days. She had the money in the bank if she needed it didn't she? As I say it does sound good and had I not winessed things at first hand I too would have applauded this idea But isn't the idea of this so that they can exercise choice? I for one if I needed assistance would rather pay for a companion to take me for a pub luch than go to a day centre (act to add I'm only 57 at the moment!). Why should an elderly person have that choice removed? Providing the frail 90-year-old is still looked after I think it's a good idea. As I understand the current system there are designated care provider companies. The SS department decides on a care calculate for an individual based on what they think people need and then signs up one of the companies to give it. Under the direct payment system you can have more hold back over which company or individual provides the care. The new system might act this a bit advance by just paying the amount you are entitled to for care into your account and then you get to spend it as and when (and on whatever) you like. Rather desire an expanded Attendance Allowance. But isn't the idea of this so that they can apply choice? I for one if I needed assistance would rather pay for a companion to take me for a pub luch than go to a day displace (hasten to add I'm only 57 at the moment!). Why should an elderly person undergo that choice removed? Providing the frail 90-year-old is still looked after I think it's a good idea. BBC catches upThe money will be initially means tested but then the cash will be transferred to the person's account to be spent as they see fit. The idea is it will back up more competition and lower prices from care providers if the real customer is in control rather than a bureaucrat. It seems that at the moment 60% of the social services budget is spent on care home costs which as we know are outrageously high. Putting the spending power in the hands of the actual consumer and his/her family as opposed to a council social worker could back up a lot to get prices down. Sounds to me like more government go around in order to make the scheme more palatable. Why should the elderly have to 'shop around' for care?What is the reality of competition in the care provision market displace? ordain not the companies involved simply avoid outpricing each other in order to reduce their costs?What percentage of the funds provided for such care ordain eventually find themselves in the pockets of the shareholders of the care provision companies? Finally what savings do we actually expect to see to the taxpayer?The funding of elderly care is little enough without it being salami sliced in order to give it to those who do not be the money. I am sorry if my post seemed "old fashioned" to you Ed. It is based on what I saw come about. Of course you and I and lots of others would prefer to obtain around for our own care if it were so needed. We are able to do so. A lot of older populate are confused by what is on offer and sometimes simply cannot be bothered to sort it all out. Life itself is simply tiring enough without having to sort out and pay for your own care. This perhaps is where family can back up and of course there are many families up and down the land that help and care for their elderly loved ones and yes they do be to be paid for their care. By the same token there are many families who think nothing of taking what they can from there elderly family members. This is again something I undergo seen many times. The day care I mentioned costing £15 was and is offered to the elderly frail members of our community. These are people who through either poor mobility,comprehend or memory problems are unable to leave their homes without assistance be that being guided with a helping arm or wheelchair help. Perhaps some of you saw the story in the newspapers recently of the elderly lady released from hospital sent home in a taxi and the taxi driver abandoned her outside of her sheltered housing as he wasn't "allowed" to go into her home with her. She was found by her daughter 2 hours later!! This is sad but adjust of the ridiculous culture we live in. So the elderly vunerable cannot use taxis. So if they can't use taxis and they have no families nearby what do they do if they do not use a day displace? They be at home of cover. In looking at this try and put yourself a little further drink the line when perhaps you may have any number of health problems and not believe it as you feel now. That is the point I am trying to alter as we age we change state more vunerable in many ways. We may think that we are always going to be as capable as we are now but sadly that is not always the case. With the freedom of personal budgets populate have chosen to employ their own care assistants join local clubs rather than attend day centres and go to hotels or on case breaks rather than to residential homes for respite care. Ministers are braced for controversy over some such choices as the scheme expands. Of course there is the possibility that quite a bit of this money will be spent on providers outside the "care industry". So no doubt people in the industry will oppose the move as it might affect profits jobs etc. But one gets the impression the plan is to run a 2 tier system so that those who be or be it can still have the social worker set things up and manage the care while those who are able to manage independently can DIY. If it brings down the costs and encourages more competition that will help a lot: why should simple personal care cost 15 pounds an hour? For that matter why should self funders pay so much more in care homes than the council?The economics of the current system are very distorted because there is no direct connection between the supplier and the consumer. Perhaps some of you saw the story in the newspapers recently of the elderly lady released from hospital sent home in a taxi and the go driver abandoned her outside of her sheltered housing as he wasn't "allowed" to go into her domiciliate with her. She was found by her daughter 2 hours later!! I did notice that. but I rather thought she had been "abandoned" in the lobby of the block,rather than in the street. Had she perhaps lost her keys? In any case if she was being brought home from hospital (rather than a day out) one might perhaps wonder why the daughter had not arrived a bit earlier.. I'm with those who think this scheme is nothing new and will result in many cases of neglect due to the vulnerable just not understanding implications or ability to find someone to care for themIt may also be where you be on the choice you undergo no doubt large urban areas will be OK but those in rural areas will have additional fees on top for privatsied care like mileage & jaunt times. In my care's case her local authority had to pay for petrol & mileage for a 40 mile round trip twice a day when this care package reached £700 per week even they baulked at it. [She was means tested & on beat funding]When they mentioned it to me regarding this cost I did suggest somewhat tongue in cheek why they did not provide a taxi to take her to local pub for meals it certainly would have been cheaperDoes any one seriously think that sort of money would be paid to an individual to arrange care for themselves?Before any one wonders why we were not there doing this we live 70 miles away Sure as long as he is looked after. I think the extrapolation of Balmaiden's inform is that some 90-year-olds ordain keep the money and begrudge spending a penny on food or care. But they might chose to spend their money on some other form of care. Isn't the money for them to spend (or not) on what they consider important for their own quality of life? If they are too frail/demented to look after themselves properly then social services can step in as they always have done. Otherwise why should they not pay it on pub lunches rather than day centres or a live-in companion rather than care assistants? Or act it and live on cheese sandwiches? Providing they are not left abandoned I think it is a good idea. Ed my point on the story re- the elderly lady and the taxi driver was not whether the daughter was there or not or whether the lady had lost her keys it was that some elderly people are not capable of getting around using taxis. I think anyone who has worked with the elderly or has elderly family in the "system" will know where I am coming from on this as in the posts from Farway and Monkeyspanner. In my mother's case her local authority had to pay for petrol & mileage for a 40 mile round move twice a day when this care package reached £700 per week even they baulked at it. [She was means tested & on full funding]When they mentioned it to me regarding this cost I did suggest somewhat tongue in speak why they did not provide a taxi to take her to local pub for meals it certainly would have been cheaper... I think anyone who has worked with the elderly or has elderly family in the "system" will know where I am coming from on this as in the posts from Farway and Monkeyspanner. I think this is the key. Anyone who has looked after elderly infirm parents and at a distance like Farway of around 70 miles will know that it is a dangerous assumption that these vulnerable people 'know what is beat' for themselves and can make these choices themselves. Well they don't. And relatives don't know either. We don't undergo the knowledge or experience. Social Services for all their faults do. I would regard it as a massive and unwelcome responsibility to just be given the funds and be told to 'get on with it'. It is another exercise in this government's ploy of 'we're giving you choice so you can't complain' despite the overwhelming evidence that people would rather have attention given to improving their local hospitals than be given the choice of going to one miles away. act care over copyright.

HRC's "buddies" as she called them her mother. Dorothy Rodham who is is 88 years old and her daughter. Chelsea who is 27 years old hit the campaign trail on Friday and Saturday. "We're getting close to the caucuses. I always think it's better to go to the caucuses with a buddy. Today. I've got some buddies with me...". HRC said. The focus of her speeches on Friday and Saturday were women and long-term care. HRC announced her plan for tax breaks for long-term health care. She is pledging a $3,000 tax credit for care giving and a long-term care insurance tax credit. HRC also vowed to improve the quality of care and require background checks for workers in long-term facilities and focused on the financial weight of families faced with caring for elderly parents and relatives. Finally she pledged $300 million yearly to support unpaid family caregivers'. HRC said that her family is able to care for her mother as she ages. HRC feels fortunate the her mother lives with her and the Big Dog. Hillary couldn't let the day pass without getting a dig in at the Repugs. Hillay said. "I will wage a winning campaign. The Republicans are not going to walk away from the White House without a fight.. one thing you know about me is they've been after me for 15 years and I'm still here." Repugs are shaking in the boots and are rooting for Barry to win the DEM nomination. I watched a bit of the Oprah/Barry concert and a couple of Repugs called in and said they were considering supporting Barry. I bet they are! HRC's mother comes out to support her daughter and media-shy Chelsea comes out to stomp for her mother. This was a nice story and gave me goose bumps. My mother passed away when I was 5 years old and I haven't been blessed with any children yet. I am sure HRC felt safe and secure with her family standing there by her side. Its either Obama shoots off like a rocket or the late decider 's break towards Clinton. If after today Obama can't pull away in Iowa and draw even in New Hampshire and pull away in South Carolina then I seriously think he wouldn't be able to close the sale. In other words if the poll numbers stay the same i e. Clinton still leading in NH,SC and tied in Iowa then the story line is he failed to close the deal. The polls are NOT going to change THAT MUCH because Obama has already received the "Oprah Bump" in the past 2 weeks. Even if the polls did move 1 way or the other it doesnt matter because the vote does not take place until next year. In 2004 the only polls that counted were the ones the WEEKEND before the caucus............. that would be sometime late december or early january this time. "If after today Obama can't pull away in Iowa and draw even in New Hampshire and pull away in South Carolina then I seriously think he wouldn't be able to close the sale." Agreed lori this is do or die for him. However. I do predict a slight increase in the polls for Barry after this is all over. I don't think the polls will shoot to the sky by no means but a slight increase. I'm actually looking forward to the last 3 debates. HRC will be on fire! The event was live on CSPAN and the room was completely PACKED even when Obama was speaking. The Hillary "wicked stepsisters" are pathetic. Over 18,000 people came to the event and no matter what you hateful people say it was SUCCESSFUL. a lot of people are underestimating the potential impact of this oprah event on the negative end for obama if the next batch of polls come out at the end of the week and nothing has changed he didn't close the sale and hillary clinton is teflon. I am under no illusions about Oprah's power as I personally have not missed an oprah show for as long as I can remember and I am one of her biggest fans infact if I was in any of the early states I won't have missed the events even as a hillary supporter but the reality is if the polls remain the same then its bad news for Obama and good news for Clinton. did you see her interview cormac maccarthy?I tried like crazy to catch that and missed it hes my favorite writer - i think the best living - and this was only the second one he ever gave in 40 years. Now thats impressive. I dont watch these shows no offense meant. I think the only one I saw was the one with Hllary durng her book tour - when she had her Mom Mrs R on with her. It was friendly and sweet. 'Stayed out of our primaries?' That's a big pup-tent you've got there. Seymour. Oprah was in on this from the beginning when she endorsed Obama before he declared: Look Shawn this is your candidate's weekend and all the free press is great. I'm with lori. I can't wait for this weekend to be over and Oprah can go back to her show and we can get back to the politicking of it all. You people act like Oprah's some of God as well. Next thing you'll be interpreting her comments and actions as iamready aka Slim. As lori said some of those people were star struck and went to see Oprah and in that they saw Barry. Give it rest for God's Sakes. Hey fair's fair. I'm not a big Oprah fan myself but Seymour was giving her curry which was unwarranted. I think the bulk of popular culture is the biggest load of crap disdain sports (it's so.. vapid and pointless) and haven't read anything much but non-fiction for twenty years not counting the classics. If it was left up to me Oprah would be broke or in other employ. I only know who she is from hearsay. But she stands with Obama so I stand with her. You guys have been leading in the polls and rubbing our noses in Hillary's nobility for ten months the least we can do now is be gracious and give you all a lesson on how real winners behave. I don't agree. Seymour was exposing Oprah for being anti-union and Barry's unspoken support for it. I thought it was a great diary. Very interesting considering I had no idea about Oprah non-union camp. Will the media touch this one? Probably not but they should. She should have stayed out of our primaries - since she wont even identify herself as a Democrat she should stay out of our dialogue. That's not only ungracious it isn't the 'big tent' we hear so much about. Since when do you grow support by telling people to piss off? Democrat's don't want her viewers' votes? If liberty and equality as is thought by some are chiefly to be found in democracy they will be best attained when all persons alike share in the government to the utmost. A little melodramatic Shawn. Seymour is entitled to his opinion. Me personally. I think it's perfectly fine for Oprah to show support and campaign with her choice for Prez. Barry. However now that she's stepped in the world of politics she shouldn't be surprised when people question her views and position. Unions? Votes for Repugs? Fair game! The easiest way to learn HTML is to use the 'view source' option in your browser to examine what other people have done that's a good way to learn the complex stuff. Simple formatting like I did is easy: You can use any combination of italic bold blockquotes nested within each other but the start and end tags must be in the correct order they work in pairs. Have fun. Once you get the hang of it you can do lots of cool stuff. Hillary goes with the quiet cozy family-oriented theme. High on substance and low on style. Small venues and face-to-face with Iowans. From 'Chicago':Give 'em the old razzle dazzleRazzle Dazzle 'emGive 'em an act with lots of flash in itAnd the reaction will be passionateGive 'em the old hocus pocusBead and feather 'emHow can they see with sequins in their eyes? Bill Clinton visited an ALL BLACK organization in South Carolina. Hillary is stooping to new lows in order to get votes including the black racist vote. Obamas campaigned WITH his wife......... Hillary and her husband are seperated. What family are you talking about? Listen allmiview you got your weekend. This is Obama's weekend. Shouldn't you be happy? Why do you seem so bitter and angry? The media is covering Obama. Hillary and Edwards are taking the backseat this weekend. Today Bill Clinton made a campaign stop on behalf of his wife at an ALL BLACK sorority fishing for votes. If any other candidates spouse visited an ALL WHITE sorority fishing for votes there would be a major problem with that. For Hillary supporters to attack Obama because he did not bring his mother on the campaign trail is disgusting. Obama's mother DIED of cancer when she was 53 years old. Obama's sister campaigns for him and so does his wife. His daughters are too young to campaign. Why did Hillary decide this weekend to drag her 83 year old mother and 27 year old daughter on the campaign trail? For politcal purposes only she knew Obama was planning an appearance with Oprah so she wanted to try and steal some of the headlines. She only does things for political purposes. allmiview. I don't think you understand that Oprah's endorsement and event this weekend is bigger booster than Bill in SC or Hillary with her family in Iowa. You shouldn't be so angry. You ought to sit back and enjoy the ride. This is a very big event for Obama. As for your accusation that Hillary supporters are attacking Obama for not trotting out his dead mother is just bizaar. Who are you speaking of specifically? ask the Hillary supporters they are the ones that seem to think Hillary benefits from campaigning with her mother and daughter while her husband is off by himself doing god knows what. America has had enough of that family. We need new people in the white house not the same old Clintons that led to the ELECTION of George Bush. Voting for the same old people thinking you are going to get different results is crazy. I think that was a smart decision. Oprah is iconic and she always does things in a big way. Hillary would not have been able to compete with anything as grand this weekend. The thing about Hillary is that the press always wants to know what she's doing. So even though Obama has Oprah and that is where the hype is the MSM is going to report on Hillary to compare and contrast. Showing her being low key but engaged takes away the potential bitchy headline by the MSM that she went head to head with O and O and lost. As far as this giving Obama a boost. I don't really know. He certainly get the media attention this weekend but how will it translate? The thought seems to be that people will vote for Obama based on Oprah's recommendation the same way that people buy a book or hand cream she recommends. I'm genuinely curious to see that correlation. "Showing her being low key but engaged takes away the potential bitchy headline by the MSM that she went head to head with O and O and lost." Agreed Kingstongirl. The story is being carried on all the major and cable outlets. You eloquently explained what HRC's strategy was this weekend. I think most will pick up on it. I can't wait until monday when the pundits come out contrasting the two events. Chris Matthews is going to have a heart attack. HRC knows what she is doing. Don't forget about Bill visiting many small venues in SC. Very smart indeed. and I would have paid good money to see Chelsea. Its so nice to see the family standing next to her supporting her. I am sure most of the people at the event were very moved. I am also sure that most of the people at "the O" were disappointed that they received no free car. Oh well another rally another chance to win a car while still supporting HIllary for President!!! It is impossible to top the media buzz that a media star will created but Clinton did just about the absolute best job you could. Chelsea and her mom coming out made sure that right below the Oprah story there was the Clinton story. Furthermore it undercut Obama in a very suble way. Obama imports star who he has recently come to know. Clinton brings in family. Not only that she brings in very popular (among many Democrats) family. Her daughter who many Democrats have regarded warmly since youthful days in the White House. I agree. I thought Hillary having her daughter and mother join her was perfect pitch for Iowa especially in contrast the the glitz and media fever of the Oprah rally. I agree. I also thought family Clinton formed the perfect counterpoint to Obama who has benefited greatly in Iowa from his low key. "its-just-me" no fuss style of campaigning. With Oprah you got to see the one of the powers behind the throne. Oprah's appearance was like a gale force that blew open what has heretofore been portrayed as Obama's solitary and heroic effort. Put another way its a bit like thinking you are watching an absorbing documentary about the heroic solitary efforts an Everest mountaineer only to suddenly see a snow blower and a fancy camera crew in a helicopter filming from on high. Oprah was a little out of balance with the presentation of Obama in Iowa. South Carolina however as a different matter and there Obama definitely seemed to have scored a coup.

You guys have been leading in the polls and rubbing our noses in Hillary's nobility for ten months the least we can do now is be gracious and give you all a lesson on how real winners behave. I don't agree. Seymour was exposing Oprah for being anti-union and Barry's unspoken support for it. I thought it was a great diary. Very interesting considering I had no idea about Oprah non-union camp. Will the media touch this one? Probably not but they should. She should have stayed out of our primaries - since she wont even identify herself as a Democrat she should stay out of our dialogue. That's not only ungracious it isn't the 'big tent' we hear so much about. Since when do you grow support by telling people to piss off? Democrat's don't want her viewers' votes? If liberty and equality as is thought by some are chiefly to be found in democracy they will be best attained when all persons alike share in the government to the utmost. A little melodramatic Shawn. Seymour is entitled to his opinion. Me personally. I think it's perfectly fine for Oprah to show support and campaign with her choice for Prez. Barry. However now that she's stepped in the world of politics she shouldn't be surprised when people question her views and position. Unions? Votes for Repugs? Fair game! The easiest way to learn HTML is to use the 'view source' option in your browser to examine what other people have done that's a good way to learn the complex stuff. Simple formatting like I did is easy: You can use any combination of italic bold blockquotes nested within each other but the start and end tags must be in the correct order they work in pairs. Have fun. Once you get the hang of it you can do lots of cool stuff. Hillary goes with the quiet cozy family-oriented theme. High on substance and low on style. Small venues and face-to-face with Iowans. From 'Chicago':Give 'em the old razzle dazzleRazzle Dazzle 'emGive 'em an act with lots of flash in itAnd the reaction will be passionateGive 'em the old hocus pocusBead and feather 'emHow can they see with sequins in their eyes? Bill Clinton visited an ALL BLACK organization in South Carolina. Hillary is stooping to new lows in order to get votes including the black racist vote. Obamas campaigned WITH his wife......... Hillary and her husband are seperated. What family are you talking about? Listen allmiview you got your weekend. This is Obama's weekend. Shouldn't you be happy? Why do you seem so bitter and angry? The media is covering Obama. Hillary and Edwards are taking the backseat this weekend. Today Bill Clinton made a campaign stop on behalf of his wife at an ALL BLACK sorority fishing for votes. If any other candidates spouse visited an ALL WHITE sorority fishing for votes there would be a major problem with that. For Hillary supporters to attack Obama because he did not bring his mother on the campaign trail is disgusting. Obama's mother DIED of cancer when she was 53 years old. Obama's sister campaigns for him and so does his wife. His daughters are too young to campaign. Why did Hillary decide this weekend to drag her 83 year old mother and 27 year old daughter on the campaign trail? For politcal purposes only she knew Obama was planning an appearance with Oprah so she wanted to try and steal some of the headlines. She only does things for political purposes. allmiview. I don't think you understand that Oprah's endorsement and event this weekend is bigger booster than Bill in SC or Hillary with her family in Iowa. You shouldn't be so angry. You ought to sit back and enjoy the ride. This is a very big event for Obama. As for your accusation that Hillary supporters are attacking Obama for not trotting out his dead mother is just bizaar. Who are you speaking of specifically? ask the Hillary supporters they are the ones that seem to think Hillary benefits from campaigning with her mother and daughter while her husband is off by himself doing god knows what. America has had enough of that family. We need new people in the white house not the same old Clintons that led to the ELECTION of George Bush. Voting for the same old people thinking you are going to get different results is crazy. I think that was a smart decision. Oprah is iconic and she always does things in a big way. Hillary would not have been able to compete with anything as grand this weekend. The thing about Hillary is that the press always wants to know what she's doing. So even though Obama has Oprah and that is where the hype is the MSM is going to report on Hillary to compare and contrast. Showing her being low key but engaged takes away the potential bitchy headline by the MSM that she went head to head with O and O and lost. As far as this giving Obama a boost. I don't really know. He certainly get the media attention this weekend but how will it translate? The thought seems to be that people will vote for Obama based on Oprah's recommendation the same way that people buy a book or hand cream she recommends. I'm genuinely curious to see that correlation. "Showing her being low key but engaged takes away the potential bitchy headline by the MSM that she went head to head with O and O and lost." Agreed Kingstongirl. The story is being carried on all the major and cable outlets. You eloquently explained what HRC's strategy was this weekend. I think most will pick up on it. I can't wait until monday when the pundits come out contrasting the two events. Chris Matthews is going to have a heart attack. HRC knows what she is doing. Don't forget about Bill visiting many small venues in SC. Very smart indeed. and I would have paid good money to see Chelsea. Its so nice to see the family standing next to her supporting her. I am sure most of the people at the event were very moved. I am also sure that most of the people at "the O" were disappointed that they received no free car. Oh well another rally another chance to win a car while still supporting HIllary for President!!! It is impossible to top the media buzz that a media star will created but Clinton did just about the absolute best job you could. Chelsea and her mom coming out made sure that right below the Oprah story there was the Clinton story. Furthermore it undercut Obama in a very suble way. Obama imports star who he has recently come to know. Clinton brings in family. Not only that she brings in very popular (among many Democrats) family. Her daughter who many Democrats have regarded warmly since youthful days in the White House. I agree. I thought Hillary having her daughter and mother join her was perfect pitch for Iowa especially in contrast the the glitz and media fever of the Oprah rally. I agree. I also thought family Clinton formed the perfect counterpoint to Obama who has benefited greatly in Iowa from his low key. "its-just-me" no fuss style of campaigning. With Oprah you got to see the one of the powers behind the throne. Oprah's appearance was like a gale force that blew open what has heretofore been portrayed as Obama's solitary and heroic effort. Put another way its a bit like thinking you are watching an absorbing documentary about the heroic solitary efforts an Everest mountaineer only to suddenly see a snow blower and a fancy camera crew in a helicopter filming from on high. Oprah was a little out of balance with the presentation of Obama in Iowa. South Carolina however as a different matter and there Obama definitely seemed to have scored a coup.

Disinfectant trays and signs asking populate to avoid cattle undergo been left come field gates and stiles. Jemima Milton of Lower Herdswick Farm near Chiseldon put in precautions after the first outbreak in Surrey in August. "We just did it because we lost cattle last measure and we were probably a lot more aware of the create," she said. She said people using disinfectant and farmers reducing movement of livestock were the long-term solutions to controlling pay and mouth. But she added farmers in the borough were struggling under restrictions. "We have calves that be to be moved to our shed and we have cows that must be sold but we can't move them," she said. "It's a challenge of finding a balance between being cautious and careful and over the top. "We undergo to run a business at the end of the day and other populate undergo the alter to walk." Rebecca Jones of Hinton Marsh Farm come South Marston said most populate in the area were avoiding crossing her land. "populate aren't tending to use the fields as much," she said. "They are mostly local people who come by here so they know about the problem. "If anyone comes to the farm they have to disinfect their car tyres and feet. We try to restrict people coming. "It has been a real pain and the fact that we can't take the lambs away from the ewes to deprive them means the lambing toughen will be later next year.

Rebecca comfort has bad memories of the last foot and mouth outbreak in 2001. "We were hit really hard then," she said. "We were closed drink a long measure and we lost a lot of money.

Democrat Hillary Rodham Clinton said Tuesday that a assign requiring every American to acquire health insurance was the only way to achieve universal health care […]  She said she could conceive of a day when “you have to show proof to your employer that you’re insured as a part of the job interview” Now. Hilary wants to prevent you from getting a job if you don’t buy in to their “free” health insurance. Didn’t a really wise man once say something about how you can’t interact the doctors without socializing the patients too? Ronald Wilson something or other. It will come to me. Did she really say that? Good ennoble too bad that she did not say that during the general election because her merry band of idiots running against her does not collectivistly undergo the stones to go up against her and contend this inanity. For what it is worth. I want the Dems to run on this shit. I want them to rest up in front of the American people with the following campaign promises: Please. Allah please let them do this. I be the American populate to finally get a really good look at what they stand for on everything. Mandated insurance but not citizenship. Voting cleaned up but don’t date ask for ID. Success? You owe us big time. Primarily. I want them to run on the idea that we undergo lost the war or ordain quit as soon as possible. Their position flies in the face of the American ideal and will not resonate with populate. If that message allows them to win then we should be forced to suffer the consequences of electing them. It will be a short term disaster and they ordain not be allowed to sit at the adult table for a desire time to go. I can see myself sitting all day in the waiting room of some govt run health care facility waiting for someone to treat my HBP when I’m about 75 just repeating over and over “copulate Hillary. Fuck Bill. Fuck Al. Fuck Ted. Fuck Nancy. copulate John…..” And then probably being tazered and pepper sprayed for disturbing the peace. I better get me some shades. And Sticky B you can just forget about trying to get the right combination and alter levels of medication. That ordain certainly not fit into socialized care for for all which is generally premised on delivering the expose minimum quality of care to the most populate possible while pushing aside conditions and people that have not been prioritized. Shrillary skipped Socialism and went streight into Communism. What a affect. Drumwaster as we say in the country you hit the nail on the head. Every “American” wishes they had thought of that goodie. All Americans doesn’t count the anti-american left go hit washed dummies sitting on Shrillary’s lap waiting for her to pull the string. Anyone remember populate required to prove their genetic worth before they could get the good jobs? I evaluate the Dem candidates are hilarious this year. Edwards wants to take everything you have and furnish you back what you “need,” Hillary just wants to banish you if you don’t do what she wants. Robin - We meaning all Americans unfortunately. Maybe we need to let a Dem hold the White House and Congress so the populate can see the Dems at their finest. Personally. I think that Hillary and the bind of misfits have some fine ideas and we need to promote them make sure everyone hears them. If they comfort choose these people then our country will quickly learn and the Dems will not hold adult offices for a long long time. Think about all this in the context of the screeching about the “Big Oil Monopoly” and the dangers of having someone formerly in the Big Oil Business in the White House. These same drooling morons evaluate the solution to the healthcare monopoly is to force people to pay. It is a aim of stupid that is hard to comprehend. That ought to get American citizens out of the emergency rooms so that non-citizens have them all to themselves. Which is only bring together considering they don’t have to have car insurance don’t pay taxes and Durbin wants to give them the alter to in-state college tuition in whatever state suits them. So quit whining second-class Americans. Why are we to assume that a government health care system ordain be come up run both administratively and financially when the current government run health system is constantly criticized for excessive red attach substandard followup care and an inability to use its financial resources judiciously? BJ - I truly accept that we need to let the Dems try this crap out then once populate see what it is really desire we will never have to broach with it again. eLarson - We are contemplating switching from our current doctors to a local practice that takes no insurance is purely fee for service and does house calls etc … That is a great line. Dan. Now that I evaluate about it. LBJ’s programs were at beat not effective yet we cling to them today. Were we to try to apply Hillarycare 2.0 it would still be around 50 years later with the Dems just adding more give-aways onto it around election measure. exceed to defeat them before they have a come about to apply it altogether. What we undergo here from Hillary to Edwards is the move to seize a significant portion of the economy for government monopoly on the grounds that it is not “working correctly” when it is government policies that “broke” it in the first place. Not a perfect comparison but look at auto insurance. Is your employer required to provide it for you? Are you restricted to only the policies your employer offers? Are all those policies so “inclusive” that they (for hundreds of dollars a month premiums) adjoin oil changes tune ups and tire rotations? Does the federal government grant an exclusive monopoly to an organization which restricts the numbers of certified auto mechanics in the country? Understand when Hillary!Care or EdwardsCare nationalizes this sector and provides “free” care of anything health related to all comers that rationing of the care is not far behind. Article 1. Section 8 has nothing about federal care for federal education federal housing federal regulations of citizen’s behaviors federal identification federal licensing concealed-carry holster types the color scheme of of government school busses or side force beams in fleets of either white or navy Ford Tauruses used for government use. Oh or concerning any other exertion of government control over the private commerce sector. Recall that an unenumerated cater is not a power. The power to tax is not the power to pay tax revenues on legislating fireproof shingles saftey-wired lugnuts or those damnable nutsack-impact airbags. divide 8. The Congress shall have power to lay and collect taxes duties imposts and excises to pay the debts and provide for the common defense and command welfare of the United States; but all duties imposts and excises shall be uniform throughout the United States; To regulate commerce with foreign nations and among the several states and with the Indian tribes; To establish a furnish command of naturalization and uniform laws on the subject of bankruptcies throughout the United States; To coin money regulate the value thereof and of foreign create verbally and fix the standard of weights and measures; To provide for the punishment of counterfeiting the securities and current create verbally of the United States; To promote the progress.
