17. I knew someone who had diabetes..
Edited on Sat Sep-17-05 12:20 AM by flaminbats
he was 95 pounds and over six-feet tall, a walking skeleton!! he ate and ate and ate, but kept losing weight. then he started taking insulin, and his life slowly got better.


The last thing Democrats need to do is make life even harder for the average taxpayer, isn't it hard enough with Republicans in power? People with diabetes can't afford insulin, people with terminal cancer can't earn money, and people with heart problems don't need to pay even more just for seeing a doctor! Democrats will not win by being political physicians, they can win by campaigning on universal healthcare..so people can get this advice from a physician without going into debt!!

Democrats lose because they refuse to publicly criticize the Republican Congress and Bush's inability to manage our government. Criticizing voters and providing personal tips on how to live would make us no different from the RNC.
