When it comes to the health of our families, Barack refused to listen to all those folks who told him to leave health reform for another day, another president.

When bureaucrats talk about increasing our 'access' to x, y or z, what they're really talking about is increasing exponentially their control over our lives. As it is with the government health care takeover, so it is with the newly approved government plan to 'increase' Internet 'access.'

We see tremendous excitement from small-business people about the administration and about the attention and commitment that the president has to do things that really make a difference.

Walking is magic. Can't recommend it highly enough. I read that Plato and Aristotle did much of their brilliant thinking together while ambulating. The movement, the meditation, the health of the blood pumping, and the rhythm of footsteps...this is a primal way to connect with one's deeper self.

TV does not care about you or what happens to you. It's downright bad for your health now, and that's not a far-out concept. I think watching the TV news is bad for you. It is bad for your physical health and your mental health.

It is an industry that is increasingly concentrated and where Americans are paying more to receive less.
