    HR 3962 Manager's Amendment
    The newly released HR 3962 Manager's Amendment is now at http://www.mywritertools.com/congress.asp in pdf, doc and rtf formats. The 3962 Manager's Amendment is only 46 pages but has a very interesting section about biofuels --- gee, this looks like pork so I am sure that Obama will follow through on his pledge and delete it.

    The Democratic Party believes they were put in office not to represent us but to lord over us.

    The healthcare proposals Democrats are working on are going to cost Americans dearly. The current proposals require taxation and fees for several years before it takes affect. The government has shown it cannot be trusted to place these fees into a healthcare savings account and keep their hands out of it. Look at what they have done to Social Security, Medicare and Medicaid. The unfunded liability placed on the American taxpayer is unconstrained thoughtlessness and unbelievable. Congress’ fiduciary responsibilities are beyond terrible, their criminal.

    Why are the healthcare-bills being written in secrecy and rammed down our throats? We would expect this of dictatorial style governments, not in a Democracy.

    I am surprised at the lock-step vote on healthcare legislation being considered in both Chambers of Congress. I cannot envision the Democrat Party disregarding the opinions of the majority of the American public and deliberately interfering with and devastating the healthcare for 80-85 percent of Americans.

    Over 20-million will not be covered with the new health care legislation. Are American citizens disqualified and illegal immigrants qualified? Will the debts in union’s health care programs be paid-in full?

    Does the fear/intimidation of President Obama outweigh the integrity of the Democrat Party? Is your constituency irrelevant? Have you considered the impact on your own family members, now and in the future? This is disgraceful, to say the least.

    The sinister partisan secrecy writing of this bill strikes me as Marxism. You choose to blind yourselves to this and the needs of your constituents. Open your eyes, your Christian hearts, listen to the people, not the President.

    You didn't stand for abortion to take the vote of those who oppose away. You didn't oppose abortion to get your vote not counted. Nor did you walk either way hoping countless others are killed because someone else decides they want to be Hitler. EVEN if it looks like it may be through a human way...your gut is telling you right now, there is NOTHING HUMANE BEHIND THIS.

    Get up and PUSH BACK. RIght NOW!
