PLEASE.PLEASE, Please.
Make the last thing you do tonight or the first thing you do in the morning Monday a PHONE CALL TO YOUR SENATOR. Demand plead cajole whine scream cry what ever it takes to get them to fight the medicare bill, My life and the lives of 7 million disabled and poor americans depend on this law being defeated. If this becomes law we will not be able to pay the new prices for medicine because our disability benefits are so low. I receive 628dollars a month from social security and 118 dollars a month in food stamp benefits. Because i am so poor i qualify for medicaid and only have to pay a 1 dollar co pay.If this law goes through medicaid will cease providing this benefit. MY MEDICATIONS COST 1000 DOLLARS A MONTH. HOW AM I GOING TO PAY????? The republicans have the heart of a wall street banker so i can`t expect any help from them my only hope is YOU. So please call calll call call and CALL AGAIN!!!!!! Thank you and GOD BLESS TED KENNEDY(even if he isn`t my senator)

1. I hear you, BGAL!
I know that you're worried sick, and so am I.

This whole mess stinks!

I'll be thinking of you, as I dial and dial and dial...

4. Thanks, CCW
As you can see, some of us are really worried, and need to know we have friends and supporters here, too.
