I had a bout of the "ideal insomnia" (as James Joyce refered to anyone who finished Finnegans Wake and started reading it again - It's a circular reference with the first sentence starting on the last page and the last sentence on the first, and it's hard to read.) at about 3:30 last night, and I came up with these gems:

Republicans to Choke Democrats to Death and Turn Everyone Else Into a Republican

"GOP strategists hope that the proposed changes to Social Security can transform a program that has long been identified with the Democrats, creating a generation of new investors who see their interests allied with the Republicans.

The administration's transformation of civil service rules at federal agencies, for instance, would limit the power and membership of public employee unions -- an important Democratic financial artery.

If the Bush agenda is enacted, "there will be a continued growth in the percentage of Americans who consider themselves Republican, both in terms of self-identified party ID and in terms of their [economic] interests," said Grover Norquist, the president of Americans for Tax Reform and an operative who speaks regularly with White House senior adviser Karl Rove."

"Most people who are investors tend to vote Republican," said Mehlman, manager of Bush's reelection campaign. "This creates conditions under which voters are more likely to support politicians who are pro-growth, pro-ownership, pro-free market."

Monica,

What are the potential causes of your mom's leukemia? Why do you think she got sick? And how is her attitude?

A life threatening cancer is grim news. There are survivor stories, however. I don't believe any of us are victims.
