The former President has agreed to be the featured speaker at this year's convention in Little Rock, Ark., which will be held June 15-17. The three-day convention will also feature an opening night reception at the Clinton Presidential Library.
With this year's convention in San Diego just over, the Arkansas Times is itching to bring the convention to Little Rock next summer. Why? "Rampant boosterism," says Alan Leveritt, the paper's publisher. "We love Little Rock, and we wanted to introduce our friends at AAN to her."
In a speech in Little Rock, Ark., President Bush used Sara McBee as an example of a doctor who stopped delivering babies because of rising insurance costs that were a "direct result of too many junk lawsuits." What he didn't mention is that McBee is the subject of a malpractice suit for allegedly making delivery-room mistakes that led to an infant's profound brain damage. The child's family is upset because they felt the president's remarks suggested that theirs is a frivolous lawsuit, Doug Smith reports for the Arkansas Times.
