Looking for posts on Mr. Foster, the OTHER whistleblower.
I love the Clarke-fest, since it totally blows that "bush is best on terrorism" myth out of the water.

But I saw a news item about a man named Foster who was threatened with his job by a bushie when the former told the latter he was going to say that the bush medicaid bill would cost about 50% more than the bushies were saying.

And I don't see anyone here at DU talking about it. Can anyone direct me to some relevant posts?

3. Dead horses need beating
let's not forget Sibel Edmonds and Robert Wright. All of these people should be called to testify.

4. US Media rule on all negative Bush info - ignore, never repeat
not that we have a right wing GOP controlled media - they just act like they are.

6. ON C-SPAN 2 RIGHT NOW6:40 AM MST
Foster giving details of how the Medicare Trust fund viability was reduced by 2 years because of the difference in figures. Nmed names of those who prohibited him from speaking. Watch the re-run.

Doggett was very dogged and good. So was another Texas D. Sorry had just awakened, but I'm sure you can catch the INVESTIGATION. This is really making waves among seniors, especially here where we are rural and have no HMO's and PPO's, so our providers will get LESS than PPO's and HMO's.And we already get 10% senior discounts on every prescription at local pharmacies, which would be cut out of the picture when the local pharmas would close and everything would be by mail order.
