John Barrow, Blue Dog from Georgia, has a Health Care Survey that you can complete in a few minutes. You can participate even if you're not his constituent and you can voice your preference for the Public Option. A good thing to do.

Hey fellas where you been the last 8 years?

In other news a Fox has been asked speak at a "roundtable on henhouse care ideas".

Contact the White House, so you can tell President Obama to veto any bill that doesn't contain the public option:

Oh my gosh..Grassley looks like death warmed over and for gosh sakes..I hope there is a reliable gate crasher in this meeting to hear the lies that these pokies spew. Did anybody hear Cantor respond to Obama's town hall meeting this morning with K.Phillips. He is such a horse's patooty.

[navgas]

Grassley, the Finance Committee's ranking Republican, received more than $2 million from the health and insurance sectors since 2003.

Interesting, no wonder he is so interested in a reform bill that basically does not allow competition with the healthcare and health insurance moguls!

[Grannysue]

Here is a snippet of what their speech sounds like "Hey, I've got great healthcare, so does my family, and it costs me next to nothing, so what's so wrong with this wonderful system"? "I mean, if I need anything the hospital personnel and Physicians hop to. I don't understand what all these people are whinning about"? To Lobbyist, where's my check?

[Dbos]

Lots of pigs at the trough involved with this legislation. Blue dogs the Repugly Dems and repuglycans mostly.

[Grannysue]

Kind of like the KLAN at a NAACP rally!
