The Medicare savings in the Senate health care bill was double-counted by Democrats and the legislation will increase the deficit -- not decrease it, a a senior Republican senator said Wednesday, citing a letter from the CBO's chief.

email i just sent to bill nelson in response to his form letter ....
I am appalled that you have chosen to vote yes on the current senate healthcare bill. This bill is so wrong for this country. The majority of the American people are against it yet you and the other democrats in washington see a cash cow and control over the American people. How can you vote for a bill that you haven’t even read? This bill hasn’t even been read on the senate floor, and why not? Could it be that there is so much hidden in it that goes against the American Constitution that you are afraid for the American people to know about until it is too late!
I hope you know that your days as a carreer politician in the state of Florida are numbered. I as well as many others will do everything in my powers to campaign against you when you come up for re-election.
Just for the record mr nelson, I am not a gun toting, bible thumping tea bagger. I am a very Concerned Citizen that is very upset about the future and direction that this current congress, senate and so called president are taking this country.
Sincerely,
That link takes me back to this same thread. Is that what you meant?
tatsinfla, you’re not a gun toting, bible thumping tea bagger? LOL. He might be skeered if he thought you were!
I’m happy you replied to him! GOOD on you.
NO, my browser didn’t clear, UGH.
Let me try again.

LOL. GOOD! I was hoping you’d say that. :)
NEVER forget, and NEVER forgive! EVERY senate democrat IS the 60th vote.
And the real unprincipled traitors among them are the ones who pretended to agonize over their phony principles.
So- Fox didn’t show the press conf? All Balloon and Brazil Boys, All The Time?
pppfffttt...
Thanks for link!
don’t worry i am locked and loaded....i come from a military family that is proud of this Country and what it stands for...i’ll be right there next to ya in the trenches....
Fox News is covering the story now!!!
Kay Bailey Hutchison is on CSPAN talking about the 10th amendment!
Sarah Palin, however, can reach millions from her Facebook pulpit! I want to hear her speaking to the young! (And everyone else.)
Was it good?
I am stuck to c-span.
Watching KBH!
She’s actually doing all right.
But I still want Perry to win.
Yay’s and Nay’s will occur AFTER post cloture time?
What does THAT mean?
The Fox News coverage turned out to be pretty brief. Maybe it will get better coverage later.
I guess that’s “normal” senate procedure?
So, they’re going to hold the damn cloture vote and then vote for the other point of order?
Is that what’s in store?
After the horse has left the barn?
The democrats ought to be running scared.
The Republicans have done a GREAT job of exposing this outrage in so short of time.
They’ve only had MERE HOURS, which is precisely why Reid & cohorts kept it hidden.
Ensign is saying the congress has never forced citizens to “do something.” Actually, the Selective Service Act forced men to register for the draft. He should have said it has never forced citizens ro buy something.
Ah yes, you’re right. At least, he first stated that he’s not a lawyer...lol.
Hatch bashing AARP.
