Editorial: Taibbi picks health care/politics to pieces (rollingstone.com)
I don't think he is taking on health care here as much as he is taking on politicians who are so inept in any real defense of the public interest while constantly professing/convincing themselves & the media that the rubber is really hitting the road and that industry is road blocking any intelligent reform or progress for 'hard working' Americans.
Puke. Officially hate Obama presidency due to the empty and seemingly never-ending pitching to his base. Can't he speak in public less, I know he is smooth, comfortable, and eloquent. And light years ahead of Bush 2.0 in that category but we knew that five years ago.

Cerner (CERN)
To get an idea of the type of investment CERN is consider the year to year growth rates:
Sales - 16%, 21%, 10%.
EPS - 32%, 22%, 18%
BVPS - 20%, 13%, 16%
ROE - has improved by 27.5% over this time period (2004-2007)
This company will have consistent earnings due to the contractual nature of the revenue stream. They have proven it over the past four quarters by exactly making EPS estimates twice and having a very small positive surprise in the other two. This is a long-term investment, that is priced correctly by the market at 26x next years earnings for the rate at which is growing. There is no reason that earnings would deviate greatly from estimates.
This stock should continue to provide investors with growth from a sector that has unquestionably high upside. It has proven itself to investors, is becoming more efficient, and is growing at a rate faster than the industry average. This is pretty much all you can ask for sometimes in industries in which you do not have an information edge.
The stock got sold off early today on some analysts CF concerns. Reads to me like noise. Sometimes you gotta take the lay-ups when you can get them. However, this is the rare lay-up that has the potential to double your investment many times over. The stock has done nothing but go up since 2003 with a 530% return since May '03.
