Everyday you think that liberals cannot be more hypocrites they shock you with a new level of hypocrisy.

I am doing very well my FRiend and I am glad that you are doing well. We have to defeat the evil of socialism that Obama and his liberals are imposing on us.

The fact that people that are supposed to be our leaders and policy makers are trying to do this to us ought to come close to spawning civil war, especially when you know the real agenda is controlling the masses. Photobucket

they should not even have the option of signing onto it.
if they think it is good enough for us it should be good enough for them.

If they did then we would know at least we would get Botox injections like Pelosi does!

Their Own Medicine
Senators prefer the insurance they have.

Hi Congresswoman

If this story about your colleagues is true, why are they forcing the American Citizens to have a plan that is not the same as yours?

All I want is the same plan you and your staff have!

I would like to know which way you are going to vote on the health care bill.

I am a concerned citizen that would like to know that my family and I can be assured of the same health care coverage that you have.

Please assure me that you will vote to have the President, his Cabinet, the Senate, and all Congressmen and Congresswomen, and the American public to have the same plan.

Please vote NO on the health care bill if you do not intend to give the American Citizens the same health care provisions that you and your colleagues have.

Thank you from a concerned American Citizen that believes in equality for All.

Just sent this to my local crime boss!

I believe they have private health insurance paid for by taxes (ie, Blue Cross).

Typical elitist mentality, and it illustrates very well why socialism is a failure. The so-called “elite” believe they are better than and deserve better than the people. They know this government health care is going to suck, but as long as it doesn’t affect them, it’s ok.

This should come as no surprise at all, after all in the old Soviet Union it was common knowledge that the members of the Politburo and the Communist Party upper hierarchy went to ‘special’ clinics and doctors that were unavailable to the proletariat and those at the bottom of the medical food chain.

We’re just watching history repeat itself.

They want to improve the health of the American people?

Just mandate that ALL Americans shall receive the SAME level of care and benefits that are available to every Senator and Congressional Representative in the Congress!

THAT would be gold plated coverage for all!

Oh wait, our ruling class says ‘NYET’, they just want to ration health care for us peasants of the proletariat now don’t they?
