This DOG must go.
How sweet it sounds from the lips of Nancy’s little lap dog.
This guy is worth 18.5 million – he doesn’t feel any of our pain – at the grocery, at the pump, and the doctor’s office. He votes the liberal line every time.
This is Texas, we don’t do Cap&Trade here – we trade energy.
Cheap energy is what made this country – let’s make some and dump the dog.
Free healthcare? Go stand in line at the post office at noon and see how efficient a government run system works.
DUMP THE DOG

Dear Congressman,
We loyal, honest, and patriotic Texans admire and thank you for backing President Obama. The Americans, who believe they have a right to health care have, in fact, the most expensive and ineffective “system” in the Western world. 45 million have no insurance at all, with the highest rate in the country (#50) being RIGHT HERE in the Lone Star State. Universal access can only be achieved through cost reduction, and cost reduction will come, with a PUBLIC OPTION, that the “for-profit” health business will, in fact, have to compete with. If they are so much better at it than “the Government”,then they should do just fine. They won’t I’m afraid, and good riddance. Thank you for standing your group. Don’t let insurance companies’s money, used to buy and bus the disrupters disturb you for one minute. We are behind you.
John C. Baldwin
M.D.

Texas has one of the best politicians money can buy in Lloyd Doggett. Pac money from financial groups (stimulus), energy groups (Cap & Trade, & pharmacuticals (healthcare reform). Yes, we need reform, but why fix whats not broken? The democrats have made a pact with the devil – free healthcare for illegal immigrants in this country at the expense of the elderly, infirm, sick, mentally challenged, and unborn. Read the bill. Why not Tort Reform? Dump Doggett in 2010!

Linda:
Agreed. The article was actually “for immediate release” from Rep. Doggett. Who I might add is actually trying to get the public what we want and voted these SOB’s into office for.

Your column, reproduced above, explains very well the reasons why the public wants healthcare. The ridiculous rumors going around must be put out by the HMOs and the pharmacutical companies. Some people are not aware of what is true and what is untrue in this situation. We must get the true story of this nation’s health care dilema to the public. It is patently obvious that many people in Congress are indebited to them. Why else would they malign and refuse to provide any positive ideas about a health care system.
