Hoping the American people win

December 20th, 2009

I was reading the NY Times headlines stories and came across this
Democrats Clinch Deal for Deciding Vote on Health Bill

“The lines are drawn,” said Senator Richard M. Burr, Republican of North Carolina. “He has to get 60 votes. If he doesn’t get 60 votes, the American people win. If he does get them, America’s payback will come in the form of the 2010 elections.”

It sounds like the Times believes that we, the people, are competing against our elected representatives in Washington. It is a sad thing that they are right. The people we elected to pass laws that we want are doing whatever they want, according to an agenda the citizens of this country do not even realize is in play for the most part.

All I can say is I hope they do NOT get the 60 votes required AND America still pays them back in the 2010 elections. In the mean time call, fax, email and write your senators and representatives in Washington. Tell them that THEY WORK FOR US and you resent them working AGAINST US.

    The American people voted for these people and most Americans favor a public option. So the American people win when this passes.

    I agree that enough American citizens voted for these corrupt elitists to be in power. I disagree that most americans want a public option. I do not know anybody that actually wants anything like the legislation these bozos have come up with. On what are you basing your argument?

    Actually, at least 6 of these Senators who voted this crap were appointed!

    Liberal American educations wreck common sense by design! They are taught to call people dumb, because they are smarter, listen to their words, they come across as better than you, especially when they cannot DISCUSS ISSUES!

    Watch Max Baucus drunk while "debating" healthcare! It is elsewhere on this sight.
