2. Your bedside manor doesn't rate well.
3. You steal money from your 94 year old mother.

800,000 dollars, in New York, to boot-
Now that would buy an extraordinary medical suit.

Three Sentences Quoted by Martin Luther King
Three sentences quoted from Martin Luther King:
1. I have a dream that one day this nation will rise up and live out the true meaning of its creed: "We hold these truths to be self-evident: that all men are created equal."
2. I have a dream that my four little children will one day live in a nation where they will not be judged by the color of their skin but by the content of their character.
3. This will be the day when all of God's children will be able to sing with a new meaning, "My country, 'tis of thee, sweet land of liberty, of thee I sing. Land where my fathers died, land of the pilgrim's pride, from every mountainside, let freedom ring.
=============================================
Happy Birthday, to a man who had the courage to say, the way it should be-
What we want for "all" of our chidren, in this land of liberty.
.
.
