Take me with you, Congressman!

[madamesilverspurs]

I just submitted this letter to our newspaper. What the heck, they've already keyed my car in protest of my bumper stickers. Might as well make it worth their while, eh?




Take me with you, Congressman!

No, really. I mean it.

In your latest newsletter you say that Obamacare is dangerous, and you promise to “permanently delay” and then repeal it. It says something about you that you are so willing to stand your ground in the face of forty failed attempts.

So, yes, I want to go with you when you tell parents of sick children why it’s necessary to take health coverage away from their kids. You ARE planning to tell them face-to-face, right? And I want to be there to hear you explain why your children will still have coverage while their kids must be sacrificed.

Then I want to go with you as you explain to senior citizens why it’s necessary to undo the benefits they are already receiving under the “dangerous” plan. I mean, seriously -- Medicare’s benefits are already being expanded, why would any senior citizen want to see that? Or have access to free preventive measures?! I’ll even help you get going with that effort to explain -- you can start with me.

Just let me know when we can do this, Congressman. I really do look forward to hearing you promote your alternative plan. I just hope I live long enough for that to happen seeing as how it doesn’t presently exist.

Your devoted constituent,

1. Rec'd! Love the snark!

Let us know if the paper prints it; I would love to see rebuttals, too, or even a - gasp! -response from the Congressman. Ha! Not likely.

Good job!

4. Response from my Congressman???

Maybe if I were to change my name to Chevron or Exxon and he thought he might wangle yet another big check . . .

I wish everyone of those morons that want to end "Obama care" would be required to go to every person who will lose coverage, or not get coverage because a bunch of idiots in the House, republicans, think it's bad for them. Let them explain themselves to those who will be affected, because it sure as hell isn't going to affect those republicans that want to stop it! They will always have their health care plan!
