Eight Democratic senators stand between the Medicare and the destruction of the senior health care program as well as the ruin of American medicine generally.

Any version of federal health care is unconstitutional since Article 1 Section 8 does not expressly grant Congress the power to regulate health care. Folld Congress with calls!!! Toll free numbers to the Capital switchboard numbers are below.

While I am calling and faxing, I have to say this;

I feel this is ultimately going to be pointless. The sheer amount of bills they are trying to get through and the lopsised representation we have, they just table things til it settles down.

I remember standing on a bridge every wednesday protesting about illegal immigration. We shutdown the capitol switchboard with our calls and faxes. They said, ok, we heard you- close the borders first. That was 2 years ago. Have they done anything? No. They just waited a couple years and now, its back on the table through healthcare.

If they didn’t listen to two million patriots in DC, tea party protests in April, countless townhall meetings over recess, and millions of faxes,calls, emails, pink slips, etc sent, what will really be the fate accompli?

Have you ever stopped to wonder why the socialists have been able to further their agenda of destroying the Constitution despite the protests? The reason being over many years they have never wavered. They have persisted with their agenda despite any setback because they view them as only temporary. The goal is to have the opposition eventually succumb to the socialist will. That is gradually happening as reflected in your comments and many others who post at FR.

People who want to defend the Constitution need to steal a page out of the socialist playbook by implementing the same dogged, never say die determination. You should view not getting the fence built as a temporary setback while still hammering away at the socialists in Congress to advance the Conservative cause. The alternative is worse if we do nothing.

Exactly why I started the statement with I will call and fax.

I am aware of how they do it. I am just stunned at how still asleep so many americans are. I would have thought by now the whole country would be up in arms. I guess it just seems slow to those who have been battling a long time now, just like the poor soliders who are on their 5th and 6th tours.........

Many have been dumbed down or been brainwashed into believing it is useless even though that thinking couldn't be farther from the truth. However keep in mind if it wasn't for an awakening by millions socialist, health care would have passed before the August recess. We have bottled up their plans and in doing so the chance of them ramming other socialists bills through Congress. We are winning.

These eight Democrat Senators are the obvious hope for the defeat of this monstrosity. Actually, just one or two of these Senators or of the other fifty Democrats in the Senate can stop the Reid bill in its tracks.

For Dingy Harry to have to warn Dim’ Committee Chairmen of the risk of losing their posts if they side against Cloture shows a high level of anxiety on Reid’s part.

When someone feels they can only hold together a coalition with threats then it tells you he is losing or has lost control and respect of those who he is trying to lead.
