A BIG Thank you to Boxer, Di Fi, Patty, and all the Dem Senate women who say they will filibuster |
|
this atrocious health care bill because it throws women under the bus with the adoption of Nelson's (R-Third Reich) amendment. Hey, they all got together, these strong supporters of choice, because if only one fat, flatulent old fart can hold up a bill and get concessions, think of what a dozen, strong, pro-choice women can do! Let's all remember to contribute to their campaigns, and when you get letters from them asking for money, telling them how choice is so important to defend, well then, open that wallet wide, beacuse...
Wait. Oh really???
Never mind.

I was really starting to like that guy. Funny how 250m can change a senator's mind. Oh well.

So Reid promised money for Connecticut to buy off Bernie Sanders? That's hard to believe since Bernie represents Vermont.

17. I'm confused, really! What public option? All I have heard anything about is a Mandate |
|
to buy private insurance with the hope that they'll do something about the price.
Honestly, is there something I have missed? What PUBLIC option?

28. Great post! So I'm going to my inbox & responding to Boxer's $$ plea |
|
...polite, helpfully suggest she can get funding from Ben Nelson. Same for others (not just picking on her, but I've received 2 emails in the last week from her campaign).
I think the way to get through is to respond to their donation requests with a "no" (maybe a "Sorry! I'm donating instead to Planned Parenthood in the names of Ben Nelson and Bart Stupak" and unsubscribe).
