Scow Mon, 17 Sep 2012 19:55:47 +0000 http://thecoastnews.com/?p=53556#comment-43739 Lisa Shaffer is absolutely right. And her suggestion should be carried right to the top. When Mr. Obama is campaigning, he should stop calling himself the President. He should also be driving himself from place to place in his own car during the campaign. Do you know how much we taxpayers are shelling out for Air Force One? Why does it take a crew of 26 people to fly one guy around? The craziest part? When they cruise into the ARCO station, Air Force One needs over 65,000 gallons of gas for a fill-up. Its cruising range is 7800 miles. That’s a little more than one-tenth of a mile per gallon. Where are the battery powered jets when you need them?

True- Sepsis, Hip Fracture Treatment, Back and Neck Surgery (except
Spinal Fusion), and Carotid Surgery.

False- Appendectomy, Heart Failure, Pulmonary Embolism,
Cholecystectomy and Back and Neck Surgery (Spinal Fusion). Based
upon currently available public information, patients with these five
conditions had a higher probability of a successful outcome at Palomar
Medical Center.

Elected board members have a duty to inform the public of facts that
could dramatically alter their health. Tri-City’s board majority
failed to provide the public with information needed to make informed
decisions regarding quality of care.

You have a right to select board members committed to warning you
about “The Danger Zone” at Tri-City Hospital. Come alongside
thousands of your fellow residents voting to replace three incumbents
in the upcoming election.
