I wonder how many acorns and seius were searched? Or the people who were allowed in early to take up the seats?

[betty boop]

Just had to get it off my chest....

This goes "snail mail" tomorrow.

[Uncle Ike]

Great letter...

Too bad it will be ignored - if read at all - by its intended recipient....

[p. henry]

Great letter. I applaud you.

[Boardwalk]

It’s unreal! They keep your bag for safety reasons after searching it and let Gitmo terrorists run free? Where is the rationale in that?

[Blackhawk]

It is wonderful Betty. I doubt they will read it though. For one it is written far above their reading level and only contains one (1) picture. If they do read it and understand the general gist of the work, in its entirety, they will dismiss it as Far Right, Swastika carrying propaganda.

My general feeling is that you will receive a canned form letter, thanking you for contacting their office regarding the important issue of Climate Change.

[Jeff Head]

God bless you betty, for telling it like it is, both on this health care monstrosity, and on the other issues you raised as well.

The American people are waking up. Thye intrinsically know that any major overhaul to something as critical as health care is going to impact every one of them and they want to know how it will impact them.

And who can possibly blame them? Except the influence peddlars and those who think that they are somehow the ruling elit.

Well, the health care debate is blowing the lid off all of that, and it is now time to carry the realizations it brings through on this issue and every other similiar issue (like Cap & Trade, FOCA, etc.) that these wanna-be tyrants propose.

President Barack Hussein Obama said on August 7, 2009, that he expected the people who caused the financial and health care mess to be quiet, stand out of the way, and let it be fixed. Well, Mr. President, if you do not want the people who created this mess standing in the way of fixing it, then you, Mr. Obama...and Pelosi, Reid, Dodd, Frank, et all had best step out of the way yourselves. Because you not only helped engineer the problems that ensured the fiasco...you are now intent on making it immeasurably worse in your drive towards abject marxism.

In order to hide this, and in an effort to push their monstrosity Health Care, the liberal-left and Obama seem intent on turning the frustration and angst of the American people over his policies into something more akin to Iran over this issue, with their own Basij thugs sent out to silence us, and Obama supporters called on by the Whitehouse to report any dissent.

MY LETTER TO THE WHITEHOUSE AND OBAMA ABOUT FREE SPEECH

Despite all this, the American people (of which you are a glowing example, betty) are downloading the Dem Health Care Plan HERE and elsewhere and educating themselves.

They are also reading the cited quotes of the main architect of the plan and Chief Advisor to Obama on Health Care HERE and elsewhere, and seeing the context of the plan from the designer of it.

So, when Sarah Palin callis it evil, they know for themselves that she speaks the truth.

So they continue to take their feelings...and their own documentation...to their reps and gett in their faces about it...as well they should.

If these reps, at the urging of Obama, Peloisi and Reid ignore this, then ti is past time to fire the lot of them and make 2010 the largest single turnout of such representatives and senators in the history of this nation..

That is disgraceful.

Good letter.

I went searching for the Emanuel article after seeing the graph you included. My mother needs to see it! After registering (free) at lancet.com I was granted access. I saw the graph and I'll be reading the whole thing.

A quick look at the pdf index at the "allocation principles" this schmuck considers. There's lottery vs. first come, first served. He considers sickest first vs. youngest first; and also saving the most lives vs. prognosis. Nowhere does he consider ability to pay, or willingness to pay, or what the doctor wants to do.

And there are other Emanuel article linked. I thought one entitled, "The promise of a good death," told me all I need to know about this guy. Jack Kevorkian must have changed his name.

Betty, I have been urging friends, family, neighbors and co-workers to try to attend a town hall meeting this month – or, if that is not possible, to contact their representatives in D.C. and make their opinions known. We enjoy a small window of opportunity to reclaim our republic from the scoundrels, and time is fast running out.

You have done both. And you have done both in an exemplary manner. You took your inability to be a genuine part of Tsongas’ meeting and ran in other directions with it – confronting those who were imposing rules for the sake of rules, and corralling the opposition in an attempt to have a rational one-on-one debate with them. I don’t dare ask myself how many of your countrymen would have done the same, for fear of becoming terribly discouraged by the answer.

And this letter that you wrote has powerful teeth, without being unnecessarily vicious. If Congresswoman Tsongas does not see fit to read it, or does not see fit to take its warnings and its factual arguments to heart, it will not be because you did not present your case well.

Your focus on Ezekiel Emanuel is spot on. Too many are ignoring or downplaying the critical role he is playing in this travesty.

Yesterday at Arlen Specter’s town hall meeting we heard repeated references to the fact that the new healthcare reform package will be deficit neutral – that the government will be focused on cutting waste and fraud, championing disease prevention and wellness programs, and making electronic medical records more comprehensive and available.

Such ‘cost cutting’ measures in such an enormous projected budget are akin to Obama’s crowing about having stripped $100 million from the budget. These elitists tend to magnify a grain of sand while conveniently ignoring the entire shoreline, if it is to their political advantage.

But immeasurably more significant than the obscene dollar cost of this plan is the exponentially more obscene moral price. Emanuel’s charge to doctors to look beyond the Hippocratic oath, and to look instead at a person’s contribution to/’productiveness’ for society, or to some kind of perverted sense of social justice, is about the most chilling philosophy I have heard come out of our government in my lifetime.

We all need to think back to eras in world history when a human’s ‘value’ was determined by his government’s view of his contribution to society – or, worse yet, his government’s view of the drain on that society that he represented. And then we need to ask ourselves ‘What have we become?’ The self portrait is becoming increasingly grotesque.

Again, betty, thank you for taking a stand and rendering yourself immovable in your battle against this most egregious assault on our most personal and essential liberties.

What an outstanding letter, dearest sister in Christ! I'm going to be emailing it to some friends and family.

[betty boop]

I'm going to be emailing it to some friends and family.

Oh please do feel free to do so, dearest sister in Christ!

I hope I didn't come off as too "over the top." Actually, I was trying to restrain my language, to be polite, but still to make my points clear enough.

Probably Niki will never see this thing. The thought occurred to me that some staffer might just file it in the ol' circular file as the ravings of a lunatic....

These people in Washington are really awfully out of touch with the people they supposedly represent.

Oh, well.... we do what we can.

Thank you ever so much, dearest sister in Christ, for your kind words of support!
