Perils of typing your post from iphone

When i thought i keyed in whitehouse.gov, iphone somehow turned it to whorehouse.gov!

Beware!

Healthcare Reform : Whitehouse version

Healthcare reform continues to infuriate progressives like me. The white house version released yesterday more than managed to do the same. I am still researching on the details (it's up on whitehouse.gov). Here are three points to take note of -

1) No public option in this version too.
2) The maximum %age of income one can be charged as health insurance premium cannot exceed 9.5% (this was 9.8%) earlier.
3) The penalty for not having insurance has been increased to 2.5% of annual income.

Will post in detail soon.

Mumbai: Who's Hot and Who's Not!

Who's Hot

Shahrukh Khan
For showing that someone from Bollywood can stick to his guns.



Rahul Gandhi
It may be a political stunt, you might not like Congress, it may be an empty gesture, but you have to appreciate Rahul Gandhi for treating Sena how it should be.



Who's Not

Amitabh Bachchan
Firs Narendra Modi and now praising Tackarey. He may have been the Angry Young Man once upon a time, but he now surely is not.


Udhhav Tackarey
We all know why.

Couldn't be better....

I don't think anything else would have captured and parodied the pathetic state of tamil in our songs than this one. Can't wait to catch the movie too...
