Farrah Fawcett is lying near death in a hospital in Los Angeles

the actress has anal cancer and has outlived her prognosis by almost a year and a half. She has sought treatments in Germany that have extended her symptoms but unfortunately now she is losing the battle. Gone is the hair that made her famous and she is now just a shell of her former self .

I myself have lost a brother to cancer so I feel empathy towards her plight. It is a wonder that cancer has not been beaten by this point in time but it has proven to be beyond our medical ability at this time. Today there is no one in the United States who doesn't have a relative who has cancer or doesn't know of someone who has cancer.

Cancer is a slow scourge that has ravaged mankind throughout our history. One would think with the billions that is poured into the subject that it could be beaten by better ways than Radioactivity

UPDATE: Farrah died on June 25th, 2009. I thank her for her efforts to show the public what this strangling death is like. Goodbye Farrah

The recent Iranian elections remind me of the Iraqi elections when Saddam Hussein one with 99% of the votes. You just can't do any better than that.

The Iranians were really smart enough to let their winner win by 60% of the vote. Now that's cheating with a brain! There is no doubt in my mind that these elections were rigged.

But then again one might ask what difference does it make? The real leadership is the Supreme Council, a bunch of religious talking heads who are basically the man behind the curtain. The man who would be prime minister has stated he is for free speech. But what does that mean? A complete dismantling of the Iranian secret police? I don't think so. It certainly won't be long before he is no different than the current prime minister. And I say that simply because the current prime minister basically has no power and really makes no final decisions. Thing he does can be overruled or instituted once again by the supreme Council.

The candidate who has declared he is the winner says that he is also going to pursue a nuclear program but is currently in place, for peaceful energy production. Or so they say. Once again the supreme Council will decide exactly what happens with that nuclear program.

Here are just a couple of interesting facts gleaned from Jack Cafferty's webpage on CNN

According to the official results, Ahmadinejad won in all regions of the country and among all classes and ages, which is highly unlikely. For example, Ahmadinejad won in cities where he is unpopular; and the opposition leader, Mir Hossein Moussavi, lost among his own ethnic group. Also, there were 40 million votes cast and just two hours after the polls closed, Ahmadinejads victory was announced. In Iran there are no machines. All the votes have to be hand counted.

I think anyone with a brain can see that this election was little more than hogwash. And no attempt was made to hide that fact. The only thing that matters in this election is that the Supreme Council had a p.m. who played ball and gave no trouble. I wonder if we are going to attack Iran next?

Now we have to do with people's asking, what is Obama going to do about this? What should he do about it? Until he has irrefutable proof that there was cheating in this election there is absolutely nothing he can do.

it has now been decided that they are going to investigate the election. I have are from a pretty high source that absolutely nothing will be done about it even if proof is given that the elections were rigged. How could they ever admit that they were rigged? Would they ever admit it? Oh hell no.

I write to you today in support of national healthcare. However, if national healthcare is not possible then I would like to offer the following suggestions to you that I feel are absolutely mandatory in healthcare reform.

Pre-existing condition exclusions must be abolished by healthcare providers. Of the 45 million people who are uninsured I ask you how many of them are diabetic and as such uninsurable by the major healthcare providers. This is unimaginable in the United States. If the healthcare providers will not provide insurance for people with pre-existing conditions then the government must do so.

Health-care providers are excluding a segment of America that is in need of insurance the most. I do not feel that they are working for America.

People who are on COBRA insurance are the people who do not have jobs or incomes and yet have to pay the most for their insurance. This is also unimaginable in these times. Why are those who are unemployed punished in this manner?

I do not feel there is any competition in the major healthcare providers sector. The cost of health care in the United States is rising four times faster than the cost of living. In these times so many people have become unemployed and uninsurable and people will soon begin to be dropping off the roles of insurance. I ask you what will the result of that be to the healthcare providers? They will have to raise costs once again to provide services for less people and their groups.

There is no excuse for every American to not have healthcare insurance. Whether it be from the government or from private healthcare providers. The more people that are uninsured the less it will cost as there will be more people putting into the funds to pay for such health insurance. The current system is not working for America or Americans. I have no problem with a blend of government and private healthcare providers performing healthcare services. But it is obvious that private healthcare companies on their own will simply raise prices beyond the reach of people who are not employed are fortunate enough to be in a group.

I plead with you to put partisanship aside and come to a satisfactory compromise on this issue. I fully understand that the Democrats may not have the full answers to this problem, but I also realize that not ensuring America is not good for America.

Thank you for your time and for your service to the great state of Tennessee.
