"And I urge every American who wants this reform to make their voice heard as well – every family, every business owner, every patient, every doctor, every nurse".


Makes calls, people.

1. No. I will not. This is not health care reform.

Look at the other thread: "health insurance reform", not "health care reform." What a joke.

8. You sure are.

Maybe.

[HughMoran]

15. Yep

Of course, I already have that regressive on ignore.

[JoePhilly]

16. SMACK!!!!

[DevonRex]

9. That's okay. We'll do the work while you sit in your corner and pout. nt

[closeupready]

12. Poutrage! 4Dimensional Chess! I want a Pony!

Waaaahmbulance! (did I miss any of them?)

[DevonRex]

18. Note: Those were all YOUR words, not mine. You promote what you abhor. nt

14. I think it is the regressive mentality that

is the tragic joke.

25. It really is. It's like that thread yesterday - "this is not your father's Democratic Party"

or whatever the language was. Having grown accustomed to table scraps, we see people here beseeching members to clamor for them, when we should be getting meat and potatoes. Yes, very sad.

[Cha]

27. Not wanting to get anything done

because it isn't perfect..and not having the vision to know it can be a strong foundation to build on.

[closeupready]

31. Is it imperfect and beneficial or is it imperfect and harmful, though?

Those are the two essential views here - some say it's imperfect but better than the status quo - others say it actually makes things worse by financially strengthening (using the coercive power of government) the very self-serving parties who have gotten us to this sad state to begin with. Sorry, but I see it as being harmful.

[Cha]

32. Too bad..we're going to get it and it's going

be so much better for our country and its peeps.

[closeupready]

34. I think not.

But don't let me rain on your parade. :hi:

[Cha]

37. You are so not.

[shraby]

23. You can't have health care reform without having

health insurance reform. Wake up and smell the coffee! Health care reform IS health insurance reform.

[dflprincess]

39. You can't have access to health care by

digging the crooks who broke the system in deeper by handing them millions of new victims.

The insurance companies make their money by keeping people from getting care - and they will continue to do so.

I don't think so!

[DevonRex]

5. Bless you. I'll start with the rep from CO first even though I'm not in

her district. Then I'll go down the list for the others.

[Hell Hath No Fury]

20. Thank you, I will!

Boxer, Pelosi, Feinstein and O will be hearing that I do not support passage of any bill that does not include a public option or buy into medicare. :hi:

[girl gone mad]

21. I've called and said I do not support any reform that includes individual mandates..

and excludes a strong public option.

Thanks for the reminder.

I will keep calling.

[closeupready]

24. THAT, I can do.

:) :hi:

[slipslidingaway]

26. Those calls are needed as well :) n/t

[Uzybone]

30. yes they are

much better than just sitting back and whining about what you don't get; call your reps and demand that you get what you want.

[slipslidingaway]

36. If anything they are even more important :) n/t

[IndianaGreen]

28. I won't lift a finger for the Senate HCR--which is a bailout of the health insurance industry

[RBInMaine]

38. There will be improvements, and it's just a first step. If you don't want to help, shut up and get

the hell out of the way ! Enough is enough. We have a chance to make some history and do SOMETHING here. Enough, enough, enough of the naysaying HORSESHIT !

[dflprincess]

40. If the best that can be done is a bill that does nothing but

transer more public money to a corrupt private industry, then we're better off with nothing. There will be no improvements - any more than those NAFTA fixes ever came about.

This bill does not make history, it just reenforces the status quo.

[slipslidingaway]

41. This bill does make history but not in a good way, mandating the purchase of

of private products is historic.

:(

33. Grijalva leaning toward "no" .... CALL HIM!!!!

[slipslidingaway]

35. Called and thanked him for holding his ground, this part of the speech

today was a slap in the face.

"...Last Thursday, I spent seven hours at a summit where Democrats and Republicans engaged in a public and substantive discussion about health care. This meeting capped off a debate that began with a similar summit nearly one year ago. Since then, every idea has been put on the table. Every argument has been made. Everything there is to say about health care has been said and just about everyone has said it..."
