Earlier this week, the Senate Finance Committee approved the health care bill proposed by Senator Max Baucus (D-Mont.). Without a doubt, this bill will increase government spending and increase taxes for Americans ..... We need more people to voice their opposition to the Democratic leadership. Will you help us get this message out?

In this economy, implementing a bill that will increase the tax burden on individuals as well as small businesses is not acceptable.
There is something fundamentally wrong when a small-business owner faces bankruptcy or lay-offs because of some obscure Washington healthcare mandate. We dont need a government-centered health care plan in America - we need a patient-centered health care plan in America.
I remain committed to supporting reforms that increase access to those who cannot get coverage under current plans. I also support protecting the rights of individuals and families to keep their coverage and choose their own doctors.
The health care bill I would like to see would: Protect Medicare for the millions of seniors that rely on this important program Provide access to care for pre-existing conditions
Allow for competition, and let you buy a personalized insurance plan across state lines that works for you, not Washington
Encourage employers to offer discounts for employees with healthy habits
Work to eliminate frivolous lawsuits that ultimately drive up the cost of healthcare Offer citizens tax dollars back through credits and deductions so they can purchase an affordable plan that works for them I strongly support real health care reform, but the Baucus bill will hurt Americans more than help them.
We dont need fast, radical reform in Washington - we need reasonable, responsible reform that protects our seniors and helps make health care more affordable for all Americans.
This message must get out. Help us fight this misguided health care bill.
Sincerely, Joe Wilson - U.S. Representative
I like him even more just for the fact that he does not look comfortable in front of the camera. I slick talking liberal would care more about being charismatic. Joe genuinely looks like he is being sincere.
Let’s rally ‘round the Joe’s of the world and “get ‘er done!”
No federal involvement of health care is permissible under the constitution and therefore stops at (fill in the blank name of the state) border.
Hopefully Texas will be one of the first but several other states will be right behind. There simply should not even be a debate on federally run health care. Good or bad it's not permitted under the constitution and for good reason.
