Senate caving to knuckle-dragging mob?
“Upper house” sells out

Posted on | 16 August 2009 | Comments Off

Sen. Kent Conrad of North Dakota is telling the White House the public option is dead. 
Already the senate is caving to pressure from the lying mob of health care opponents. 
I sent the following to the senator and, in fairness, let my two so-called senators know what I said about them.

It is time to stop the lies in their tracks. 

Death to lie-rants!

The following was sent to Sen. Kent Conrad:

Dear Senator Conrad,
As a person who believes strongly in health care reform, it is time the Senate started showing some spunk.
There are many of us who have to suffer under the lack of imagination and leadership (as well as downright selfishness and greed) of such senators as mine – Hutchison and Cornyn.
For us, we have to look outside for any hope of decency on a number of issues, rather than to our own “representatives” in Washington.
I am so sad to see the Senate caving to mob rule and letting the likes of “my” two senators be triumphant.
When they win, the country usually loses.
A copy of this will be forwarded to them.
I hope, in the end, I am not as ashamed of the whole senate as I am the two senators from Texas.

God help us all if they cave.
