We could get a big bang for the buck by starting in Hollywood.

Brave new world, here we come. I can't believe a Republican administration has proposed such an abomination.

I can save Bush and the US a fortune: Democrat = crazy dude.

[toupsie]

Isn't the Democratic Convention next month? Coincidence? I think not.

[not_apathetic_anymore]

Do I want to oppose this based on it's cost, or do I want to oppose this just based on the program regardless of cost?

Gonna have to ponder on that.

[Howlin]

This is idiotic.

I like my soma with a little tobasco sauce please.

The New Freedom Initiative, according to a progress report, seeks to integrate mentally ill patients fully into the community by providing "services in the community, rather than institutions,"

Abomination? It sounds like something Governor Ronald Reagan tried in California, before the Democratic legislature withheld the funds for his community-based mental health initiatives.

And do you like what they named it --- The New Freedom Initiative

I can't believe a Republican administration has proposed such an abomination.

Believe it.

[Judith Anne]

I don't believe it.

[murdoog]

Has Bush lost his mind?

[Joe Hadenuf]

Thought I'd give you guys a heads up. You had better lay low for a while.

[Az. Mike]

You're right on the money. 'Take your Soma and welcome to the Brave New World (Order)!' I thought this article was some sort of twisted satire (and hope it is). If not, I think we may be in some seriuos trouble.

[A CA Guy]

No big deal, the government also suggests you clean your teeth after each meal and they haven't shown up at your door yet to check that either.

Sounds like he wants those who are sick to get help if they need it and he isn't forcing them into it that I can see.

[bluefish]

I could have sworn that this was an Onion article when I first started reading it. Please somebody tell me that this isn't for real.

The Conspiracy nuts will have a field day with this one. And they may not be so crazy when doing so!

[Cultural Jihad]

Naw. That's good advice for the Johnny One-Notes. ;-)

[claudiustg]

If they were properly medicated Dems might not be so bad.

The New Freedom Initiative

It's my understanding that there was quite a debate as to the official name that this program would have, and while the NFI won out, The TLBSHOW Project was a very close 2nd.
