Health Care Report Card on CongressCritters
I was listening to Mario Solis Marich on Air America, and a caller suggested the idea of calling our congress critters (especially Senators!) with a list of 4 or 5 questions about Health Care, such as whether s/he is in favor of abolishing the pre-existing conditions, and other concerns.

Mario said they would come up with a list of questions, and then we can all graded our Senators and Reps, and hopefully get more people to call that way.

He will post it on his blog.

I think it's a great idea, and hope that DUers can organize this in their own states.

Put our CongressCritters on notice!

1. I think this is a great idea... but here in NC don't waste a call on Virginia Fox and McHenry...
... imagine the worst possible set of circumstances for poor and working class and uninsureds, and they will be carrying the flag high to make it happen.

2. I don't think ANY call is wasted. Imagine a thousand "Fail" reports!
Then, pair that with how much each of them is receiving from the Health Care Monopolies, and the Pharmcos.

Who knows...mite wake some people up!

3. It's just no mystery where either of these two stand...
They both are mean-spirited, incapable of compassion, and totally worthless as representatives of their districts.

4. Well, then... call or don't call. The rest of us will do the lifting, then, 'K?
You're not the only one with lousy representation.

S'long........
