Send us your questions and comments by e-mail, Facebook, YouTube, or Twitter. Senators Barrasso and Coburn will respond to some of them in future episodes, which air every Tuesday and Thursday at 4 pm EST.

Republican Health Care Plans:
* Focus on health coverage for all 300 million Americans, including the 47 million uninsured.
* Are health care plans you can afford.
* Allow you and your doctor to make your health care decisions, not some Washington bureaucrat.
* Emphasize prevention and wellness.
* Give low-income Americans the same opportunities and choices that most Americans already have.
* Don’t make it harder for American businesses to compete in the world marketplace by adding to their costs.
* Won’t saddle your children and grandchildren with trillions of dollars of debt.
* Should be enacted this year at a pace that lets us do it right.

Great idea!

Are there Scientists/engineers, turned Republican politicians? The natural progression would be to have a "Senate Climate Show", where republican senators and congresscritters who were from science backgrounds, invite climatologists, meteorologists and the like for lively discussion on crap-n-tax.
