Something strange is going on here. Rock solid no votes like Edwards and Skelton voted yes along with other committed nos like Boucher, Driehaus, Chandler and others. I wouldn't take this as a definite indication of how they are leaning. Maybe some Dems voted yes and are planning to use it as an excuse to vote no?

I am getting more confused by the minute...i try , like a fool, to make sense of this and follow the votes, etc...Then I come to and realize that the whole thing changes as fast as i can figure it out...cause they just change the rules every few hours!

I believe the 222 votes against the constitution should be used as a target list for removal from office.

I agree. Any Repubs on that list?

I called Skelton’s office and told them that I will donate every last penny to whoever runs against him. Also told them that my business street sign will be available for use against him for same. I’m a gunsmith and do not care if I offend lefties.

I don't believe so. I didn't see the list of those who voted, but saw an article that said it was down party lines with 28 dems voting with republicans against it. So from that I'd say no.

“I believe the 222 votes against the constitution should be used as a target list for removal from office.”

They each raised their right hand and swore an oath.

If this were still the America that our founding fathers wanted, they’d each be hung for TREASON.

According to Islamobama any vote taken in Congress is a vote for health care reform. So, he’s telling everyone that those congress people who vote against stopping the Deem and Pass ploy are voting FOR the bill.

Obama daily proves he's a liar. How long has it been since he said jobs was his first priority? No evidence of that can be found.

He could do far, far worse than just to leave the issue alone...

Yeah, that’d be fair.

This thread needs some analysis. I’m pretty concerned that they got 222 on this bill.

While I entirely agree that the economy is better left without Obama's fingerprints, it still doesn't change the fact that Obama lied when he claimed it was his first priority...it's clearly not.

Rally your local talk radio host into doing street protest in front of your reps local offices.

This is from a 2007 contact list of congressional aides. Some might not be there any longer, but worth a try. The ones on the one post are senate aides, a few have bounced back, it’s worth the effort to clog up their email system along with the phones, and 1/3rd of these senators are up for re-election.

Mail must be inspected for anthrax.

Contact congressional aides.

Here is one of the ones Rush gave out on the radio that I’m calling. So far it’s been busy but I’m going to burn it up till I get to tell my congress critter to vote NO!

Good idea from the bloggers at Hillbuzz:

http://hillbuzz.org/2010/03/17/action-items-march-17th-2010/
They offer specifics and links on how to put pressure on Dem DONORS, who have private numbers for legislators who may have taken their phones off the hook.

Congress may not want to hear from us, but they’ll listen to the money men.

KEEP THE CALLS UP! DC OFFICE LOCAL OFFICE

CODE RED Contact list http://www.nrcc.org/CodeRed/targets/
Remember they are all being offered BRIBES for their votes. Ask them how much their bribe price is.
The National Republican Congressional Committee has published a target list on health care. In addition to continuing to contact the five Tennessee Democrat Congressmen, you can go http://www.votervoice.net/link/clickthrough/ext/94697.aspx to contact some of these targets. Much of the talk following Obama’s announcement has focused on how to defeat this second bill through reconciliation, but that is misleading because the first step to defeating Obamacare is not by concentrating on defeating the “fixer” bill but by defeating the Senate bill in the House when it goes to the floor for an up-or-down vote on Thursday, March 18th.

http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/news/2467046/posts

Congressional Dems on Twitter
http://www.arrghpaine.com/congressional-dems-on-twitter

And here are toll-free numbers we can use to call any Senators or Reps.

At the first number below you must wait through a tape recording urging you to tell your Rep or Senator to vote “yes” for the health care bill. Just hang on and when the recording is over, you will get the Capitol operator. Just ask for your Rep or Senator’s office. Then you will either talk to an aid or have the chance to leave a message for him/her to vote NO on the health care bill.

When you use the second number and the Capitol operator comes on, just ask for your Rep or Senator’s office. Every time I use this number I get the Rep or Senator’s answer machine, so it may be set up that way all the time...to go to their answer machine. Either way you can leave a message to vote NO on the health care bill!

We need to use these toll free numbers that have been set up for the health care/ BO supporters and illegals to use! After all they are FREE!
