a repeat* <http://feeds.bignewsnetwork.com/?sid=562943> 07 Nov 2009 A
videotape of Osama bin Laden released on Friday is a repeat of a tape
released many months ago. IntelCenter, a U.S.-based terrorism monitoring
company, says the latest videotape is the Pashto-language version of the
previously released tape. Titled "To Our People in Pakistan," the original
tape was released on July 12th in Arabic and Urdu, IntelCenter said Friday.
Excerpts had already been screened by Al-Jazeera television (on June 3rd)

*Obusha Saturday night bad news dump update: Obama leaning toward 34,000
more troops for Afghanistan<http://www.mcclatchydc.com/227/story/78516.html>
* 07 Nov 2009 President Barack Obama is nearing a decision to send more than
30,000 additional U.S. troops to Afghanistan next year, but he may not
announce it until after he consults with key allies and completes a trip to
Asia later this month, administration and military officials have told
McClatchy. Currently, the administration's plan calls for sending three Army
brigades from the 101st Airborne Division at Fort Campbell, Ky. and the 10th
Mountain Division at Fort Drum, N.Y. and a Marine brigade, for a total of as
many as 23,000 additional combat and support troops. [*Obusha does most of

*Sweeping Health Care Plan Passes
House<http://www.nytimes.com/2009/11/08/health/policy/08health.html>
* 08 Nov 2009 Handing President Obama a hard-fought victory, the House
narrowly approved a sweeping overhaul of the nation’s health care system on
Saturday, advancing legislation that the Democrats said could be their
defining social policy achievement. After a daylong clash with Republicans
over what has been a Democratic goal for decades, lawmakers voted 220 to 215
to approve a plan that would cost $1.1 trillion over 10 years and that
Democrats said would provide relief to Americans struggling to buy or hold
on to health insurance... Unable to reach an agreement on compromise
language on abortion coverage, *House leaders decided to allow a vote on
tight restrictions that would prohibit federal money from being used to pay
for abortions*, either through a new federal health insurance plan or under
private plans that enroll people relying on federal subsidies.
