I am beside myself with anger over the statement Obama made about treatable illnesses!

Your brother was having blue episodes in the 70's. Health care has advanced dramatically since then. Asthma is now managed completely differently, including being managed at all. There was very little available in the 70s. As pp have mentioned asthma is now treated quite well at home, not to say kids or adults never need to

I think you are misinterpreting "shouldn't" as though the people are intentionally using a room inappropriately. I take it to mean, with preventative care people wouldn't have gotten to the point that they need hospitalization. I think you interpret his words to be negative because you don't like him, but I am trying to see what he means when he talks, I do the same for McCain.

I"m sorry this distressed you, particularly as the disress was entirely unnecessary.

Have you considered trying to read or listen to what Obama says without thinking him essentailly then anti-
Christ?

I can assure you it will make the next four years of you life much more pleasant.

yes, and global warming is making it more common. i guess you are more concerned with the past experience of your brother than the future of many other peoples' brothers

"I am upset because Obama has the gall to tell us that asthma is a treatable illness."


Asthma is a treatable illness with good medical care and proper health management it is treatable.
