EXCERPT:
Sen Joe Lieberman likes to take center stage whenever he can, it seems, and this time he is threatening to side with the Republicans, and filibuster the Senate's health care bill unless the Democrats drop expanded Medicare coverage and the public option from the proposed bill. Joe, I like your way of doing business so much, that I have a counter-threat: if you make good on your plans to filibuster a bill that would provide health care to millions of uninsured and underinsured Americans, I will not only donate to your opponent in the next election, but I will volunteer for your opponent's campaign, and call as many Connecticut voters as I can. (I'm already a proud member of the face book group: if Joe Lieberman filibusters health care, I will donate to his opponent, and dear reader, you can join it, too.)
Why am I so fed up with Joe Turncoat Lieberman? As an internal medicine doctor who has been taking care of uninsured patients in community health centers for more than a dozen years, it seems utterly unjust that one legislator could derail the chance for millions more Americans to obtain health care coverage, especially since Congress is so close to passing a bill that does include a public option.
So, Joe, I can't afford to buy expensive medications for all of my uninsured patients who really need them. But I can afford to contribute to your opponent and make calls to Connecticut voters from my cell phone during the next campaign. By putting yourself in the middle of the universal health care debate, you may end up denying full expansion of health care to millions of Americans. It's only right that we deny you your Senate seat in the next election.
