I called Dave's assistant on her cell phone today and asked if Dave agrees with the Public Option in principle and she said yes. snip Good work Raunch!

I called Dave's assistant on her cell phone today and asked if Dave agrees with the Public Option in principle and she said yes. Sen. Harkin has said he would not favor a health care reform bill that did not have a public option. Dave will probably follow Harkin's lead. The only thing that could derail him is that he is up for reelection in a district that always voted Republican before he won office. I hope he doesn't have to pander to his conservative constituents. I'm good friends with State Sen. Becky Schmidt and I will talk to her tomorrow about getting Dave on board. I spoke to our Central Committee Chairperson today and she said she will call Dave personally. Everyone, please call or write your congress critters today. We shouldn't have to be activists 24/7. It is getting ridiculous. Someone is betting that we'll tire and they'll be able to steamroller over us. This is what we elect representatives for. We have to find people that will represent us and not the f'ing lobbyists! If your rep votes against his constituents throw them out!!! Robert, How will you know to throw them out unless you pay attention to what your elected officials do? Call your congress critters and ask if they will or will not vote for health care reform without a public option. If a bill does not include a public option they should vote against it. Ask your congress person to make a statement of support for a public option on their website. Get them to promise, then hold them to account to we the people not the lobbyists. Thank you for your willingness to be a citizen activist.

Thank you for your willingness to be a citizen activist. (Not Robert) Read what I said again. I said 24/7 or IOW all the time. I am commenting that in general the public would like a public option and most likely single payer. I already wrote my congresscritters via email. Got a reply from Senator Boxer but not from Feinstein yet. She sucks up to the money. I call my Congressman. But what I'm saying is we should with the public opinion the way it is be able to put them on cruise control and do what the public wants. No we have big fucking corporations with personhood that mean more to our congresscritters than the public. Further evidence that capitalism is a sham. I could give a shit if single payer wipes out a bunch of health insurance companies. They fucking deserve it and their CEOs poverty. What a bunch of crooks.

Also, we have Russ Feingold, and Herb Kohl... they generally vote the right way... I would suggest, that we also 'Hold the Vibration' of it already manifesting... In other words, 'Feel' that the vote has already taken place, that this goes through... Also, 'Feel' that the obvious dysfunction of the current system, when exposed to the 'Light of Consciousness' will collapse... As, now is the time, to project 'Consciousness' in order for 'it' to purify and shine light on what is the 'Simple Solution'... It's really simple, if we take the time to really actually in consciousness, what we want, and what we as a culture, deserve... Robert.
