Culling the Upcoming Elections in syria a farce. While stopping short of offering u. S. Military aid. Kerry said he and partners remain committed to, quote, changing the dynamics on the ground in syria. Neither kerry or William Hague offered many specifics. Heres more with what sect kerr secretary kerry said at the News Conference with William Hague. Ask yourself, how do you have a legitimate election when half the people in your country are displaced and not able to vote . How do you have a legitimate election when another several Million People are in refugee camps, unable to vote . How do you have it when hundreds of thousands of peopleliterally, almost a million perhaps, are scattered in various countries in the region, seeking safety from assad. Its just impossible to believe that under those circumstances, where people are hunkered down in homes, intimidated and afraid to be able to come out, afraid of being forced to do one vote or another, just have no climate, no framework wit

If we want dentists to give one or two pills instead of 30, if we want doctors to recognize that these are not good treatments for headache and fibromyalgia and low back pain. They need very good information on that. Both of the education on this topic right now is not teaching doctors that using these medicines long term is a bad idea. The cdc has put out Educational Programs out there. The bulk of the education is really telling doctors when you follow certain rules when you prescribe, it will turn out rowsy in the end. If you check a urine, somehow the patient wont wind up addicted. Close monitoring is the thing to do for people on this treatment. It doesnt turn it into something thats safe. These strategies dont prevent addiction. These are not good treatments for most people with chronic pain. Okay. Do you think we should mandate the states to mandate that med
