We CAN AFFORD healthcare for all.....But we CAN NOT afford phony "reform"!!!
Edited on Mon Jan-04-10 09:09 PM by Faryn Balyncd




We CAN AFFORD healthcare for all.



But there are a few things we CAN NOT afford:


- - - We CAN"T AFFORD to pass a bad bill, just to rack up a nominal "W". Sure, the American people like a winner. But they won't be fooled once they get their mandated premium invoices, and realize they've been sold down the river.


- - - Morality aside, We CAN'T AFFORD to betray the middle class with a no-public-option mandate, and destroy the Democratic majority, leaving the country to the ravages of the next GOP cloned-puppet demagogue.




Do we have a few good Representatives, willing to stand upn to the Senate, and demand that we pass what we CAN AFFORD, and not what we CAN'T AFFORD?





:kick:

6. Well, we certainly NEED to see Louise Slaughter, Rules Chairman there.


Perhaps a delegation consisting of Slaughter, Woolsey, Kucinich, Lee, Massey and about 15 US Marines.
