I don't know who in D.C., that has any real power and influence may be reading this, but do yourselves a favor and take notice:

Democratic leaders are grossly underestimating the anger of the left, if they think they can negotiate away what was promised to us.

I AM NOT NEGOTIATING!!!

I WILL NO LONGER BE TAKEN FOR GRANTED!

I WILL NO LONGER PLAY YOUR GAME!!


The healthcare issue is MY line in the sand. If you (the democratic powers that be) think I and god knows how many other fed up liberals are kidding, just try us. You all are so goddamned worried about elections that haven't happened yet, you let them influence the decisions you make on issues concerning us Americans in the here and now.

We're sick of it. At least I am.

Prove to us, the American people who elected you to represent US, by the way, that you AREN'T pawns of the corporations and do the right thing, for once. We want single payer healthcare. We want universal coverage. We want elimination of pre-existing conditions. We want to be able to afford it, too.

I am only one person, but I will work long and hard to unseat EVERY democrat who votes against my interest on this issue.

I have put up with way too much, already. The list is long, and my patience has become way too short.

3. How long before you're 65 and eligible for Medicare, Joe? Just wondering.
We ought to be fighting for increases in the Medicare reimbursement schedule, before we discover that that EXISTING benefit has withered on the vine just as Grover Norquist would have it.
