I signed again and I will sign any petition for a Single Payer Option that

comes across my computer screen!! The citizens of our nation deserve this and

our nation should provide just as the civilized nations of this planet already

do for their citizens. Do each of us deserve any less?

By NOT providing this benefit to our populace, is our government throwing

in the towel and saying to the world that they are no longer able to provide for

us as the other leading countries provide for their citizens? Do we intend to

become a third-rate country in order for the 1% of our citizens to line their

bank accounts with our hardearned dollars while leaving 30 million plus of us

uninsured and many million more going bankrupt from their " deductibles " or dying

due to some non-physician board member turning their claim down to save their

bottom line and their bonuses?

 

Are we going to stand for this one minute longer? If we are, then we

deserve to wait in ERs until we drop dead because the line is so long!

Darla -

 

We continue to build momentum proving the votes exist in the

Senate to pass a public option using reconciliation, which requires only 50

votes plus Vice President Biden.

 

In only two weeks, we've gone from zero to 34 senators on the

record. Eight Senators -- including Dick Durbin, the second-highest ranking

Senate Democrat -- just this week. These Senators heard your phone calls and now

they're helping lead the charge for the public option.

 

Thanks to your hard work, no other way forward on healthcare

reform has more united support. The majority of Senate Democrats, the majority

of House Democrats, and the majority of Americans all agree: It's time to pass a

public option using reconciliation.

Day after day, we're naming names and proving the votes exist for

the public option in reconciliation.

 

Some Democrats in Washington, including White House Press

Secretary Robert Gibbs, keep saying the votes aren’t there, but they won't

name the Senate Democrats who are villains of real reform.

 

It's time for Robert Gibbs and the White House to name names and

be transparent about which Democrats are actually opposed to the public option.

They have a responsibility to tell the country who is undermining the will of

the American public -- who overwhelmingly support the public option over the

Senate bill that lacks one.

 

ADD YOUR NAME TODAY

 

Democrats will pass healthcare reform this year. It's up to us to

make sure it includes the most popular piece of reform.

 

Thank you for everything you do.

This is a joke, right?

Personally, I want my freedom and am opposed to anything which gives the

Freedom... a novel concept!! So you too are not buying Obama's

guarantee of lower cost health care and more choices with a " public

option " . But then maybe what we want is no longer our choice if the

Dems get their way. how did we ever sink to this level?
