Apparently, they do! Judging by the nonstop propaganda onslaught that has been unleashed in the past few weeks in a
desperate attempt to stop President Obama's agenda to FIX what the Republicans have screwed up in this nation ever since Regan was elected, there is NO DEPTH to which the Republicans will not stoop.
Every day, the mantra is the same - "Americans do not want the health insurance reform bill", even though we have made it abundantly clear that we DO want it.
"Reconciliation has never been used before - it's a trick - a gimmick". History tells us this statement is
A LIE.
Reconciliation and "Deem and Pass" are NOT tricks or gimmicks, they were used by THE REPUBLICANS many times to pass things THEY wanted to pass.
So, no; that lie won't work this time.Lies abound from Conservative mouths everywhere - especially from those Congresscritters with (R) after their names. The unified Republican voices calling for us to "Kill The Bill", are disguising their REAL reason for doing so: they want their fat cat insurance and pharma contributors to CONTINUE TO BLEED AMERICANS through ever-increasing insurance premiums, with ever-decreasing benefits.
If you live in California, good luck getting an individual policy from Anthem-Blue Cross.
Similar red-lining and recission policies abound in other states as well.
The Republicans have succeeded in creating an environment where big businesses prosper and thrive, with unprecedented profits, at the expense of the middle class which is being treated as a giant checkbook to be siphoned dry by these predatory corporations.
TIME FOR YOU TO TAKE A STAND - DEMAND THAT YOUR ELECTED CONGRESSPEOPLE SUPPORT HEALTH INSURANCE REFORM TODAY -
it's the FIRST step in holding America's companies more resposible to the needs of Americans.
