Heh. I am the Godfather to a preemie born at 23 weeks weighing just 14 oz. She’s just celebrated her 8th birthday and is in perfect health, if a bit small in stature. The irony here is that her mother, one of my best friends, is an ardent liberal, fervent Obama backer and noisy supporter of government run health care. I love her to death, and as such the effort I’ve made in the past few years that’s prevented me from grabbing her and shouting in her face “What you’re advocating would have meant the death of your daughter” is nothing short of astounding. She just….can’t see what’s right in front of her face. *sigh* Our friendship is worth more than an I told you so, so I won’t be forwarding this article on to her either.
