Utne Reader American physicians were complicit in the Bush administration’s torture policy. Where's the AMA?

Doctors Without Ethics

This is just part of a much larger discussion on the type of people being recruited and drawn into the medical profession. I dont think you would find altruism at the core of many people's motivations for becoming a physician. Ego, money, fraternity, and control.

What a sad period we endured under the Bush Administration.

Let's say never again and mean it by purging all human rights abuses still in our government. Isn't it past time for closing Guantanamo?

Adam--I agree in spirit, but Louise Erdrich, Ann Pancake, Susan Brind Morrow, Jack Gilbert, Wendell Barry, W.S. Merwin and the likes MUST be in on the decision too. These writers truly wield the finest pen, word for word, line for line. Numbers often mean good marketing, that's all. Small press writers are arguably our very best writers.
