Congress: A Self-Indulgent Non-Representative Body of Government
Letters to Leaders Blog ^ | 7/14/2009 | Letters to Leaders

The following letter was sent to urge my senators and congressman to vote against the Obama administration's universal health care proposal. I shouldn't have to elaborate to explain why it is such a foolish idea, but if you don't understand drop me a comment and I would be happy to indulge your curiosity.

Senators Udall, Bennett, and Congressman Lamborn,

I am a United States citizen residing in Colorado. This letter concerns the upcoming votes in the House and Senate related to the Obama Administration’s health care plan. I am asking you to vote against any proposed government health care plan.

The letter is very well written. How do you think the reps from Colorado will vote?

Americans accept the corruption and non responsiveness of our politicians like we accept the weather. Nothing we can do about it, so get used to it.

It’s really sad, but I don’t have a good answer. I do know the system is horribly broken, and I hope at some point, the sheeple wake up and make these parasitic politicians pay.

You will receive a very nice meaningless reply.

I think the Colorado reps and senators will vote along party lines. My rep is a Republican and the two senators are Democrats. My only hope is for at least one senator to be a Blue Dog, but I’m not holding my breath.

I did receive replies (further down in the blog post) from Senators Udall and Bennett, and congressman Lamborn. I have recently received a new form letter from Sen. Udall. As I mention in my intro to those letters, a form letter REALLY convinces me that they’re listening to their constituents.
