Congress is now in summer break. There has been success in stopping Obama from cramming through a socialized health care proposal that he said he wanted passed by both houses before today. While that is good news, the left intends to continue to push their extreme agenda once they return. Now, this congressional summer break, is the time to become VERY active and to do all that you can legally do to push your representatives to stop Obama and his policies. Obamacare can be defeated. The achilles heel of this socialist policy is the cost. Now that the Dems have spent all of the money that we and future generations have or will have, we cannot afford the nearly trillion dollars more that Obama and Pelosi want to waste destroying our health care system. The simple fact is that the nonpartisan CBO has already spoken. None of the Dems policies actually stop or slow the cost of health care. Obama's lies about being able to keep your doctor were uncovered. 1000 pages of legislation included tricks on the people. The plan being pushed by the left said that insurance companies could not enroll new members after the legislation is passed into law. Now we all know that the left will continue to rework the plan as it goes through the process, but we also know that based on our experience with Obama and Pelosi in the stimulus bill, and cap and trade, as well as the early drafts of this health care plan that they will write a monster bill, hide tricks to damage the country while enriching leftists, and push it through in the middle of the night. Obama came in with only his record as community organizer and 20 year student of Wright. He now has a domestic and international record that we can use to validly judge him with. Based on what he has done so far and the tactics that he has used, we need to oppose him on this health care scheme with all legal methods at our disposal.

Therefore, I encourage all of those who disagree with the direction Obama, Pelosi and the other Dems are taking this country to become very active during this congressional summer break. It is during this period that our representatives are out there getting feedback from the people to use as they make decisions when they return to Washington. Many of them will be at state and country fares. They will be making speeches in your area. It takes just a little effort from the people and we can make a difference. Hopefully we can stop or kill Obama's liberal and socialist policies before they are enacted. Otherwise we can only hope that these liberal and socialist policies will fail miserably and surely so that no one ever attempts them again in the future.

Clear Skies,
Jim

"You guys make a pretty good photo op" Obama said about the military. A perfect example of how libs support the troops.
