"She said 90 percent of spinal cord injuries in the United States are caused by gunshot wounds and noted that $1.8 billion a year is spent on spinal cord injuries."

"She said 90 percent of spinal cord injuries in the United States are caused by gunshot wounds and noted that $1.8 billion a year is spent on spinal cord injuries. "

Bush, who in his 2000 campaign promised to sign legislation, has been publicly silent for months as the clock ticked.

And thank you, W for being so! Hope this thing sunsets quietly.

"She said 90 percent of spinal cord injuries in the United States are caused by gunshot wounds...

I despise the liberal media. They'll throw anything out there without fact checking, no matter how intuitively ridiculous the claim.
