In case you haven’t heard – those idiots in D.C. are going to try and ram this piece of [****] so-called “health reform” bill down the throats of the American people this coming Friday (11/6/09).  The polls show that more than 55% of the public oppose this bill while only 35% approve – (as a side note – what’s up with that other 10% – don’t they even give a [****] or what?).
As a result, Congresswoman Michele Bachmann has put out a call to arms – so to speak – asking for as many people as possibly can to show up at the steps of the Capitol Building on Thursday 11/5/09.
This is from her website:
WHAT:            Health Care “House Call” on Washington Press Conference
WHO:              Republican Members of Congress
Americans concerned about our health care future
Other Guests – TBA
WHEN:            Thursday, November 5, 2009 from 12:00-1
WHERE:          East Front Steps of the U.S. Capitol (House Side)
Congresswoman Michele Bachmann released the following statement as the House of Representatives approaches a vote on the Democrats’ health care reform proposal:
“The American people spoke loud and clear at town hall meetings all across the country throughout August.  But, it would appear that Congress didn’t hear a word they had to say.  The Democrats’ latest health care proposal unveiled late last week may be packaged a little differently, but it’s the same old bad bill as before.
“This bill is a trillion-dollar, budget-busting, government takeover of our health care system.  It will put bureaucrats between people and their health care.  It will lead to rationed care, hurting the most vulnerable amongst us first.  It will break the bank, leaving our children to pay the bill with diminished freedoms and dwindling prosperity.
“The American people need to stand up again and make sure that Congress hears them this time.  Speaker Pelosi is putting her bill on fast track to a vote – and it remains to be seen if the House will even get a chance to vote on the commonsense Republican alternatives.  The people need to make a House Call on Washington this week and tell their Representatives to vote no to a government take-over of one-fifth of our economy.  This is gangster government at its worst.
“I urge all Americans to come to Washington this Thursday.  Come and meet up with your Representative and tell them that you want to control your health care.” Read entire story.
