| Virginia Tech vet chosen to care for Olympic horses
A recent addition to the Virginia-Maryland Regional College of Veterinary Medicine at Virginia Tech will be spending next summer in China, caring for horses in the 2008 Olympics. David Hodgson has been selected as one of about 20 official Olympic Committee veterinarians, caring for about 200 horses that will be competing in the games. After a veterinary career that took him from his native Australia to Washington State University and back, David Hodgson and his family relocated to Blacksburg this summer. He heads the Department of Large Animal Clinical Sciences at the vet school. Hodgson specializes in internal medicine and has a doctorate in equine sports medicine. But he and the other vets at the games will treat a variety of ailments, from leg injuries to coughs and colds commonly suffered by horses after a long trip.

Obama wins South Carolina primary
It's my estimation this was all a very well constructed attack plan by Oprah's gigantic, & extremely well oiled multimedia machine, when she decided to influence the next presidential election, with her power parlay move. And to these same throngs of mindless Obamabots who keep bringing up this "experience issue" when comparing Hillary to Obama, one only has to compare the first day of occupancy of the next couple to get into the White House with all previous couples who've occupied the White House to understand how experience matters. On day one, the Obama's wouldn't even register on a comparison scale, while the Clintons could quite possibly beat *all* previous presidential couples who've occupied the White House in terms of experience, ability, & power. I hope this clears up this experience issue for you now.
