Conservative Groups Outline Strategies To Challenge Potential Supreme Court Nominees
The New York Times reports that it has obtained 10 memorandums prepared by conservative groups on President Obama"s possible choices to replace retiring Supreme Court Justice David Souter that outline how conservatives hope to frame the coming nomination debate. The memos focus on 10 female potential nominees. Although the groups have gathered information on about three dozen people, both liberals and conservatives expect that Obama will nominate a woman for the position.The memos analyze the possible nominees" records and dissect statements they have made that conservative groups find objectionable. The memorandum on Judge Diane Wood criticizes her as an "outspoken" supporter of "abortion, including partial-birth abortion." In addition, the memo on Judge Sonia Sotomayor says she is willing to expand rights in the Constitution past where the text allows, while the summary on Judge Kathleen Sullivan says she supports same-sex marriage.According to the Times, conservatives have acknowledged that Democrats" control of the Senate gives them little chance of defeating the nomination, but they still aim to mount a formidable debate. Conservative groups hope that rallying their supporters behind a common cause "could help refill depleted coffers and galvanize a movement demoralized by Republican electoral defeats," the Times reports. Gary Marx, executive director of the conservative Judicial Confirmation Network, said that donors have committed to contributing millions of dollars for advertisements on television, radio and the Internet. Richard Viguerie, a conservative fundraiser, said, "It"s an immense opportunity to build the conservative movement and identify the troops out there." Nan Aron, president of the liberal Alliance for Justice, said, "I think the mood and the politics of the country have passed [conservatives] by." According to the Times, liberal groups also have created a shared research pool for the coming debate (Savage, New York Times, 5/17).

Expert Available To Discuss Alternative Cold Remedies, FDA Advice On Zicam

Consumers of over-the-counter homeopathic and "natural" cold remedies should carefully research such treatment options and properly follow dosage instructions, urges a UMDNJ physician who specializes in integrative medicine. "People cannot assume that homeopathic or natural products are safe," commented Dr. Adam Perlman, executive director of the Institute for Complementary & Alternative Medicine at the UMDNJ-School of Health Related Professions, following a U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) announcement advising consumers not to use certain Zicam Cold Remedies. According to the FDA, the intranasal zinc product was linked to loss of sense of smell. "There"s a good chance such products may be helpful on some level, but it"s important to do the research to determine what"s effective and identify what the safety issues, if any, are," said Perlman, who is a UMDNJ Endowed Professor of Complementary and Alternative Medicine and chair of the Department of Primary Care at the UMDNJ-School of Health Related Professions. He also suggests that consumers carefully follow dosage instructions. "Overusage tends to occur with homeopathic or natural products because, again, people assume they are safe, but excess doses may be harmful," he said. The jury is still out on the effectiveness of herbs, such as Echinacea, and homeopathic or natural remedies, including those providing a boost of zinc or vitamin C, on cold symptoms, but some may be viable alternatives to medication, Perlman said. "A holistic approach to dealing with a cold also includes getting plenty of rest and a healthy diet," he said. The University of Medicine and Dentistry of New Jersey (UMDNJ) is the nation"s largest free-standing public health sciences university with nearly 5,700 students attending the state"s three medical schools, its only dental school, a graduate school of biomedical sciences, a school of health related professions, a school of nursing and a school of public health on five campuses. Annually, there are more than two million patient visits at UMDNJ facilities and faculty practices at campuses in Newark, New Brunswick/Piscataway, Scotch Plains, Camden and Stratford. UMDNJ operates University Hospital, a Level I Trauma Center in Newark, and University Behavioral HealthCare, a statewide mental health and addiction services network.
