Yesterday Erick reminded us that 4 Blue Dogs are selling out to liberals like Nancy Pelosi and Henry Waxman on health care. We are hearing that the Energy and Commerce Committee may vote on the bill out today.
You can stop the health care bill. You can stop a government take over of health care now.
Contact your Representative here: http://www.redstate.com/action.
Tell your family, your friends, your neighbors, people at your church, whoever. Get them on the phone. Send them that link.
Now is the time to act.

Maggie_in_Indiana (Diary) Friday, July 31st at 3:19PM EST (link)that you can walk into their office and leave a handwritten note? I didn’t either until yesterday. It was easy. and the waiting room was full of others who wanted to do the same thing.
I guess if you mind your manners they don’t call the cops and have you hauled out.

Oh, this frosts my cookies…..
Dems latest healthcare scheme
Kyle-MI (Diary) Friday, July 31st at 4:37PM EST (link)Their latest scheme is to limit the rise in the price of healthcare insurance premiums. If this is such a great idea for healthcare, why not for everything else? They should pass laws limiting the rise in price of bread, gasoline, and haircuts. Why not just outlaw inflation? And when they are done with that, they can all go to the nearest sea shore at low tide and command the tide not to come in.
CT-4
cusefan96 Friday, July 31st at 4:51PM EST (link)Called “Jimmy” Himes. The staffer took my name and address and said she pass along my opposition to the bill.
He’s a freshman D who unseated Christopher Shays after 10 terms. This is a district the NRCC should be targeting next year – represented by an R since 1969. Himes only won by 3%, largely due to Obama turnout in Bridgeport.
In a mid-term, we could take it back. In a swing district, Himes is voting lockstep with the Democrats. Not sure if anyone has declared yet..though Stewart McKinney’s son is rumored to be interested.
The big story here is on Rob Simmons (former CT-2) who is running against Dodd.

Be sure and tell all your friends they pulled this move, so they learn(or re-learn) if there’s a donkey by their party ID; do not trust them.

The point cannot be made often enough: Modern liberalism, as embodied in the Obama presidency, is the defender of the status quo. And the status quo is a road to economic ruin. Political forces cannot redistribute the wealth that the economic system does not produce.

Health Bill Passes the House Commitee, here it comes folks...
DONTREADONME (Diary) Friday, July 31st at 9:21PM EST (link)now bend over and grab the ankles here it comes.
LA Blue Dog Reps. Charlie Melancon gives green light...
DONTREADONME (Diary) Friday, July 31st at 9:24PM EST (link)wonder how the people in LA will take this. Last I recall, the whole health care thing did not go over well when master-blaster sebelius “cold day in hell before you socialize my country”
[CORRECTION] I Charlie Melancon voted against the Death Care Act...
DONTREADONME (Diary) Friday, July 31st at 9:46PM EST (link)I did not read that wrong the first time I read the story on the AP, they must have corrected it since I saw it, but none-the-less I was wrong, Charlie Melancon voted against the Free Death Care Act of 2009
NO WORRIES HERE.
Rod_Patrick (Diary) Friday, July 31st at 9:39PM EST (link)The House Republicans reviewed the the Health Care Bill and found it to be very consistent (with few administrative differences – federal vs. state) with the RomneyCare in MA.
It’s therefore certified as “bipartisan”.
Cost? No worries too. Inflation in the future will just suck it off.
The Bill is very forward-looking. In a not so distant fiture, Getting Sick and Getting Old will be declared as both social disease and spiritual failing. I think “Prohibition Against Catching Sickness or Disease” is one of the major last-minute amendments to the Bill. In the medium term, such thing will be declared by the Congress as a crime and shall be punishable by Death.
