Blanche, is raising the estate tax threshold to $10 million with Jon Kyl 'right for Arkansans?'
A. No, but it is 'right for Wal-Mart heirs'--not your average working Arkansan, Senator Lincoln.

I was pleased to learn from her--during her appearance on Morning Joe this morning which just ended--that President Obama has not called her. Why the hell would he--after she announced she would not be voting for the health care reconiliation bill.

Perhaps you need reminding of the percentage of uninsured people in your state, Blanche. That number is 17.5%--485,000. Is that 'right for Arkansans?'

3. No. She's announced already she's a no vote on reconciliation of the health care bill.
President Obama will not be calling Blanche Lincoln.

Senators and Representatives, with their votes, will make plain whether they stand with the American people or the special interests--the healthcare and banking industries (Obama's student loan program will be included in reconciliation bill by ruling of the Parliamentarian).
