Congressman Gene Green (D) Town Hall - PUBLIC PLAN A PUNISHMENT!!
YouTube ^ | 8/22/09 | ISTVIDEO

Posted on 08/22/2009 9:12:09 AM PDT by Kimberly GG

When questioned about how our leadership is not being forced to take the public plan...Democratic Congressman says he'd take a vote on it, BUT, went on to say.....

"My fear is that I want to safeguard employer-based insurance and I don't want to PUNISH federal employees, or city of Maytown employees, or state employees, just because...if you work for government you get employer-based insurance...... I don't want to PUNISH you if you work for Shell, or Linedale or anybody else, so I want employer based insurance to be continued as best we can....."

Public Health/Insurance Plans would be a PUNISHMENT!!

This video has been hosted for various reasons, however, no one seems to be picking up on what the Congressman actually said!

His response should be REPEATEDLY REPLAYED!!

Anyone with the brains to get out of the rain knows what America is being punished for. The previous statement excludes two groups of people: 1. Democrat voters 2. obama voters.

For the benefit of them I will answer your question.

America is being punished for electing socialists, Marxest, and sexual degenerates to positions of power. America is being punished for saying, via their votes, that the peoplewould prefer sexual degenerates and perverts to lead them instead of basicially honest and decent people.

We need to ask these jokers if they will vote against any bill that fails to protect employer-based health care programs. Then ask him if he’s is just going to eat any crap sandwich that is handed out by his boss, Nancy.

They know how this is going to work. We will split our current system into nightmare care and rich care.

This will happen within months, with insurers and providers leading the way in offering programs to the rich. The gap between the two will widen each year and even each month, as rich care advances and grows. Public care will quickly shrink and (literally) die.

Yeah, he’s introducing “competition” alright.
