Pelican Briefs: News, notes and insights on Louisiana politics
As the only Republican in the House to vote for the Democratic health-care overhaul bill last week, New Orleans Rep. Anh "Joseph" Cao has gained a lot of attention in newspaper stories, radio talk shows and political Web sites.
Now, he even has a song to enshrine the moment: "The Ballad of Joseph Cao."
Written and performed by Jeff Horwich, who hosts the Minnesota Public Radio program "The Loop," the catchy tune notes the maverick move by the first-term congressman, but stops short of making it a profile in courage, with a couple of questions about his timing and his motivation.
In a brief caption, Horwich notes that "One, and only one, Republican broke ranks to vote for the health reform bill in the House. Dude needed a song."
Correctly pronouncing the congressman's name as "Gow," and shortening his given name to "Joe," Horwich pens a memorable refrain that is as good as any commercial jingle:
"Who's in the limelight suddenly? Joe Cao, Joe Cao The loneliest man in the GOP? Joe Cao, Joe Cao
Was he reckless, we he braver, to cast his vote in favor? Did he ever waver

'Health care' is not 'medical care'
We hear endlessly about how many Americans don't have health insurance. But, if we stop and think – which politicians hope we never do – that raises the question as to why that calls for government-controlled medical care.

-
IRONICALLY enough, the dangers of the lib eral health-care agenda are being made clear by the care that a liberal icon, Sen. Ted Kennedy, has received since his brain seizure last month.
-
Kennedy was quickly diagnosed with a malignant glioma - a rare and often-fatal form of brain cancer. Less than two weeks later, his tumor was being removed by one of the world's experts in brain cancer at Duke Univeristy Medical Center.

Sadam's Death For Oil program KILLED millions of Iraqi people
-
While there are many controversies regarding U.N. resolutions and sanctions placed by the U.N. against Iraq it remains a fact that Sadam's beligerent attitude to the U.N. documents and to the IAIE (Unscom) caused the death of the people and children identified in the data below.
Resolution 1302
is a continuation of the Oil-for-Food programme, which was not designed
to resolve the crisis in Iraq. When it was assembled in 1996, it was
designed to stop further deterioration. But the fact is that
Oil-for-Food has sustained the humanitarian crisis. Mortality rates of
children under five years of age still remain at 5,000 per month, plus
an additional 2,000-3,000 people per month among adults, other children
and teenagers. These people are dying because of bad water, inadequate
diets, broken down hospital care and collapsed systems.We
have massive malnutrition in Iraq, despite the Oil-for-Food programme.
There is a huge social collapse, families falling apart with children
out of school taking to the streets. The electric power is 35 per cent
of what it was in 1990. So the Oil-for-Food programme has totally
failed to bring about the well being of the Iraqi people. Having said
that, it has, however, provided something like 20 million tonnes of
basic food. It does make a huge difference in keeping the Iraqi people
alive -- but only barely alive.The

conditions in Iraq today under the UN economic sanctions and the
Oil-for-Food programme constitute famine conditions. The average birth
weight of a child in Iraq today is less than five pounds. That is an
indicator of famine. The Oil-for-Food programme is something that the
UN should be ashamed of. It is a continuation of the genocide that the
economic embargo has placed on Iraq.
