Here is video of Louisiana GOP Congressman John Fleming explaining his House Resolution 615 that would call on House members who vote for Government Health Care to choose that option for themselves and their family. . . . . (Watch Video)

This won’t go very far, but it’s a nice gesture.
I would replace “choose” with “must” us that option...
Lol...the Dems would call that “racist”.
If the RATS pass legislation that exempts members and their families from the gummint system, they are handing the GOP a great issue for the 2010 campaigns. Not nearly as big as the economy, but one that will not sit right with a lot of voters.
Pretty weak. He sounds like a sixth grader debating.
No offense to sixth graders.
I certainly hope it would apply to both parties.
anything they pass thats good enough for us should be good enough for them. they are elected to serve,not as they misconstrue,to rule.
equal rights for everyone is what they always go off on except for themselves where its extra rights and priveledges.
as far as i’m concerned every bill and law they pass should apply equally to them as well as the masses.
Yep if they won’t use it then we shouldn’t have to either!
I agree.
thats only 2 of us. i guess we can call that a start.
I also agree that, if it good enough for the masses, then it is good enough for congress!!!

I've been using this argument with everyone. If it's good enough for us, it's good enough for them. And if they won't use it, why not?
“I would replace “choose” with “must” us that option...”
And make it a LAW not just a “Resolution” which is NOT binding.
And retro active to boot!! Cover all House of Reps that are alive and covered.
This “resolution” is NOT enough!!!
You are right, that is what is wrong with these ‘debaters’. Throw down the gauntlet!
You like this healthcare so much? Fine, if it is good enough for the American people it is good enough for Congress and their families and the President and his family. Make it an absolute that any bill passed does not exempt Congress and leaves them no choice but to use it.
Of course that would take someone with juevos and not just these mealy mouthed debaters.
we need petitions. actually something both intelligent people as well as liberals can get into.
