I went back and resaved it and it seemed to clear up. Can't account for it. C'est la vie!

In the end the country will take what it can get -some watered down "reform." Without the public option, Obama goes down as potentially one of the greatest weasels of political promises. The higher the hype, the lower his reputation will finally fall.

I want my money and time back. Like so many others who worked for him so long and hard.

Obama has yet to figure out healthcare or anything else will only get done by using the power of the executive and by strongarming democrats. Forget republicans. They have made it clear they will not be participants in anything lead by democrats.

He also needs to get after industry groups in a very harsh way and make it clear to the American people that their government is running this country and not the corporations. He has the power to do that and he can make it stick if he wants. He has to decide though which side he is on and realize he is not working inside a framework of negotiation.

That is odd. The page and

That is odd. The page and font I am seeing is the normal one that is the default Times New Roman font with the normal point size and isn't bolded.

It is worth mentioning that the way the page looks is controlled by both the page itself and by the settings of the browser it is being viewed with.

It is not recommended to use any manner of settings on a browser different than defaults if you are going to do blogging etc. It will confuse the hell out of you because you can't really tell what the actual result looks like.

If you happen to have made a lot of customizations in that way on your browser I recommend to do a full reset of your browser back to it's initialized settings. It won't remove favorites or anything like that. At worst it'll change your home page. That is easy to put back to what you want.

I reset browsers all the time when doing service on computers because people get them twisted all around in crazy ways just by tinkering.

In IE the Advanced tab in Internet Options has a reset button to perform this. Other browsers have a similar function. I only use IE so I don't know where to reset the others.

We are of one mind on this

Great post Oleeb. As I mentioned on another blog I would rather really minor reform that regulates insurance comanies' ability to drop folks, exclude pre-existing conditions etc. to passing a bill requiring mandated insurance with no measures for cost control (and a delayed "trigger" public option. If we pass bad healthcare reform just to declare a victory in name only, we will be paying for this literally for years to come - bleeding the system of the money needed to reform healthcare and further deepening the pockets of the health care interest lobby to fight against any more changes.

And if we can't pass real health care reform with huge majorities in the house, senate and a president elected with a huge mandate, when will we be able to do it?

I have had this problem. Then it just magically went away although Seashell gave me a two hour look over and 'did something' at the blog site.

And yes, preview is just 'f..k you' sometimes. But the problem appears to be gone for the most part.

Make sure you speak with Seashell about this. Or someone that knows what they are talking about.

I have. I often get something in the preview window that simply does not look the same as what happens once published. I can't explain it. What I got on this post doesn't look like what I got in the preview window. Other days and other posts it comes out as intended.
