What doesn’t give me hope is the amount of money Obama is throwing at this. A few hundred mil from AARP, Soros, pharmaceuticals, etc. This is how he won the election, bought it. A lot of people tend to believe what they see in an ad.
How can we fight this kind of cash?
WITH PEOPLE!!
All of the polls show that the American people do not want government run healthcare. If Obama and the dems ram it through anyway..they are finished. Obama is a one term president(if he doesn’t get impeached before then) and the dems are toast in the house and senate in 2010. They are probably finished anyway because they are wrecking the country in short order.
KEEP GOING TO THESE TOWNHALLS FOLKS!! DO NOT BACK DOWN OR LET UP!!
