I wonder how many people have been wrongfully cheated out of medical care for their physical illness and how many have been wrongfully cheated out of disability benefits because of Wessely ?  How many have suffered permanent physical harm from being encouraged to exercise beyond what a sick person should do ?  Many ME people would benefit greatly if told they have a good chance of being well near tropical waters, but the medical world's not generally interested. They'd rather invent stories about non-existent psychiatric illnesses.  I'm glad my elders aren't alive to see how low the people running the UK have sunk. &lt;/p&gt;</description><dc:creator xmlns:dc="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/">Hailey Mannering</dc:creator><pubDate>Thu, 01 Sep 2011 22:29:59 -0000</pubDate></item><item><title>Re: Perry hits back at Mexican president</title><link>(u'http://thehill.com/blogs/blog-briefing-room/218053-perry-hits-back-at-mexican-president',%201594031470L)#comment-1594031470</link><description>&lt;p&gt;The current crisis is largely caused by USA encouraging their southern neighbours to co-operate in the "War on Drugs" (search "Merida Initiative).

Rather than pointing fingers, I´d like to say that Mexico is fighting the "War on Drugs" jointly with the US, as per the Merida Initiative. This is not a "Mexico only" problem, and Mexico has made tremendous sacrifices in this war.  The US government wants Mexico to help stop the flow of drugs into US, most of which are from South America.  I don´t see much sign at all of anger against the US government in my part of Mexico, and none at all against individual US citizens.  There is some resentment against foreign media scaring off tourists, by falsely implying that all of Mexico is dangerous.
