South Korea delays firing drills amid North's threats

If  South Korea continues its drilling the North will come back and hit the South even harder which was said friday.  On the last attack four died and more will probably die this time.  Russia ordered the South to cancel the drilling to aviod further escalation between the the divided pennisula.
I think the the pennisula should learn to get along and come up with a comprimise.  The pennisula has been divided for how many years may be it's time to get along and become one.  Then it might stop further problems they could work out in the future.

ISSUE #2 - Ensuring Quality Care for Medicare Patients

 As of 2008, doctors who treat Medicare patients will face cuts of 5 to 10 percent in their reimbursements from the federal government.  President Bush's budget for fiscal year 2008 proposed savings of $70 billion on Medicare   and Medicaid over the next five years.

With drastic cuts , some policymak­ers have devised a plan to reduce Medicare  while ensuring that Medicare patients still have access to quality services. As Medicare is presently set up, doctors get paid based on their quantity of services rather than quality.

In late 2006, legislators approved a new pay-for-perfor­mance system that will allow Medicare to pay doctors a 1.5 percent bonus for providing information about the type and quality of their services.  This voluntary pro­gram is set to begin in July 2007. With the help of  data gathered in the reporting phase, program administrators plan to work with medical experts to set clinical guidelines for quality care. Over the long term, supporters of this legisla­tion want Medicare to reward superior doctors and hospitals that provide quality, cost-effective treatment for Medicare beneficiaries.

I think medicare is for people who can afford it.  It should not be ensured because then the country just goes farther into debt.  We need no more debt in the U.S. , we have enough and should not have to suffer the debt in tax dollars.  The people who can afford healthcare should be the ones who can get medicare.  I believe the pay for the performance plan just like Nancy Pelosi does.

Early Signs Tuesday Night: West Virginia and Illinois

Republicans almost certainly have to win the West Virginia Senate race to take control of the Senate. Illinois is already a state to which leans toward the Republican side so if West Virginia wins it is a sure fire way to take over the Senate with Republicans winning.
I think it sounds like the Democrats are in trouble.  They better hope to win the state of W. Virginia or they will hold minimul seats in the senate and they will have no say in anything.  They better hope to have strong canidates and hope that they win or they are up a creek without a paddle.

Nissan recalls 2 million cars worldwide

Nissan needs to recall over two million vehicles because of ignition problems.  The engine may stall and you won't be going anywhere.  They need to recall all the cars to fix them throughout U.S., Japan, Europe, and Asia.
I think Nissan should just shut down every single plant in America or whereever they built.  They are a worthless piece of equipment that are not reliable and you will get stuck in the middle of nowhere and you might die in the middle of nowhere.

First Thoughts: How to spot a GOP wave

On election day, which takes place eight days from today, we'll likely be able to tell very early if Republicans are on the verge of taking back the House and possibly more.
Most likely one of the politcal parties will take over. That's how it is one party tries to take over because they think their sides are opposite and they want what they want.  They hope to run over the government and make it their way.

Belize battered before Richard weakens

The hurricane did much damage to Belize before it weakened.  It cut off power and 10000 people took refuge in schools and churches to live.  The hurricane was a devastating to belize and and took many people down and now they are sad.
Its too bad the country got destroyed but it a natural thing and they are probably used to the natural disasters.

41 die after bus ignores warning, collides with train

A bus collides with a train bus killing 41 people because a bus got in a rush and tried crossing railway when sirens were blaring.  The bus driver thought he could make but took 41 lives instead.
i think the bus should have waited and then we would still have a bus and 41 people alive.  The driver was rushing himself and made a stupid move to try hurry even though the sirens were blaring.  He should not have even been driving a bus if hes going to pull moves like that.
