As lawmakers head back to their districts for the August recess, they're gearing up to face some undoubtedly hostile town hall sessions.
Rumor has it that press secretaries on the Hill are emailing around this website–OperationEmbarrassYourCongressman.org– as a warning: Don't let the boss walk into an ambush.
Visitors to the site...

We got em on the run.
I understand that orders for tar and feathers are on a 30 day backlog....
Is that a real web site?
Come on all you lawmakers!....Come to Pappa!....Get ready to have your nuts cut off!
“The goal is to embarrass lawmakers”????
I think they have shown to be quite capable of that all on their own, although it is quite fun to watch the “deer in the headlight” responses or lack thereof. Maybe more than a few need to read the Constitution.
Really. Shaking in their Guccis.
Thanks.

Wonder if any of them have ever heard a Rebel Yell?

Oh Well, It would have no effect if they did not know what was to follow it.
Ambushes? That’s not the cowboy term I would have chosen. I would have chosen terms like posse bringing outlaws to justice.
Just received a three-page printout from worldmag.com that highlights provisions in the 1,017 page healthcare bill. To quote:
..The government will audit your books if you self-insure.
The newly created Commissioner will submit a report to the government that includes "any recommendation the Commissioner deems appropriate to ensure that the law DOES NOT PROVIDE incentives for small and mid-size employers to self-insure." (21.23-23.3)
This is just one of 17 provisions that WORLD has summarized and posted to its website, www.worldmag.com, found under Washington's Prescription, The Editors, Healthcare.
Excellent material for information and hand-out. This is an absolute outrage.
Others: The government will define your "health benefits" ... will ration your care ... will establish and administer a public health insurance program ... will define how doctors manage their time ... will tax employers for not providing healthcare ... will tax individuals unless you are a foreign resident ... will order you to get end-of-life counseling and show proof ... will limit your hospital readmissions by penalizing hospitals ... will restrict coverage of special needs patients ... will not let you sue over coverage limits and costs decisions ... will mandate what physicians make ... will have access to your bank accounts ... will not call the fees it imposes taxes ... will issue you a health ID card ... will enlist or create outreach programs like ACORN to sign-up individuals in government-run plan; will create a new bureaucracy to include phone healthcare. References with page numbers and line items are given each provision.
I’m sorry... I’m going to have to forward your post to flag@whitehouse.gov
as it is clearly stating opposition to the government healthcare system.

They are our employees for goodness sake. We pay them. In the end, they report to us. and their report is overdue.
This is just a good o’l “you’ve earnned a pink slip” dressing down.
About time the right woke up.
