In the 1980’s and 1990’s dentists were closer to the top.
Has chasing the almighty dollar contributed to dentistry’s fall from ethical grace or is this result good enough?

Michael Ramirez on President Bush and the Senate Illegal Immigration Amesty Bill
Broken RIGHT WING indeed.
President Bush has torn the conservative coalition asunder.
What political conservatives and on-the-ground Republicans must understand at this point is that they are not breaking with the White House on immigration. They are not resisting, fighting and thereby setting down a historical marker–“At this point the break became final.” That’s not what’s happening. What conservatives and Republicans must recognize is that the White House has broken with them. What President Bush is doing, and has been doing for some time, is sundering a great political coalition. This is sad, and it holds implications not only for one political party but for the American future.
The Senate Kennedy-Kyl Immigration Bill which will be taken up this next week in the United States Senate is dead. The GOP base has spoken.
Put a fork in the bill – it’s done.
President Bush should pull the plug and save the GOP, despite what the WSJ Editorial staff opines.

Missile Defense Watch: Bush Talks Tough on Missile Defense
Russian President Vladimir Putin(R) speaks with his US President George W. Bush during a 2006 working session of G8 leaders in Strelna outside St Petersburg. Bush reached out to Russia Friday to soothe concerns over a planned US missile defense program that has cranked tension between the allies and fears of a Cold War-style arms race.
CNN: Bush talks tough on missile defense as summit nears
President Bush defended his plan to build a missile defense system in Russia’s backyard, even though it has sparked fresh tensions in the already frayed Washington-Moscow relationship.
Russia has reacted to the new system by unleashing several rounds of harsh rhetoric against the United States. Bush suggested that Russian President Vladimir Putin needs to get over it.
Russia’s Vladimir Putin, an old guard former KGB operative is WRONG and besides beat his gums can do what?
Russia has been uncooperative with curtailing Iran’s nuclear program and nuclear proliferation in general. Russia has been bolstering Iran’s air defense capabilities.
China has been increasing their military, especially their navy.
So, will Russia align with Iran and China to exert hegemony over the Middle East and Asia?
Possibly
The Quotes:
“The Cold War is over,” Bush told reporters in an interview that previewed an eight-day trip to Europe next week. “We’re now into the 21st century, where we need to deal with the true threats, which are threats of radical extremists who will kill to advance an ideology, and the threats of proliferation.”
Watch for more posturing at the G-8 summit beginning this coming Wednesday.
