Health plan seeks industry fee to fund uninsured care
Senate Finance Chair Max Baucus pushes a new health reform package that includes an insurance industry fee to finance coverage for the uninsured. The plan avoids a government run option, favors health insurance exchanges, expands Medicaid, and creates nonprofit cooperatives to increase consumer choices while aiming to lower costs and boost accountability. The bipartisan group weighs the proposal as a Sept. 15 deadline looms and questions linger about GOP support from Grassley and Enzi.

Firefighting Efforts Hampered by Winds in Angeles Fire

The fire is 56 percent contained, has burned 157,220 acres, with costs rising to 57.6 million dollars. Investigators pursue arson as the cause while honoring fallen firefighters and an on-site vehicle crash.

Neat totals cast doubt on Afghan election fraud
An Associated Press review of Afghan polling sites shows highly unlikely results favoring Hamid Karzai. At Haji Nehmetullah House 725 votes all went to Karzai, and at Haji Akhtar Mohammad House 400 ballots likewise split entirely for him. Observers note neatly rounded totals, with reports from Kandahar Pakti ka and Khost provinces indicating large scale fraud patterns across dangerous regions. Partial returns from four stations in Zoor District Center Paktika show 300 250 200 and 200 votes.
