The video features three people talking about how they cannot deliver petitions against government healthcare because Capitol security forces are blocking their access to the Capitol. They conclude by telling anyone listening to phone your senators and representatives.
You can also go to their local offices

Capitol Hill pretty much doesn’t accept USPS mail anymore...since the Anthrax thing.
Some healthcare points:
There is NO money for ANY REAL healthcare bill. That’s the problem – they have a $2 trillion cost bill, and the Democrats and Obama are engaged in the fantasy that it wont add to the deficit and doesnt have massive new taxes and doesnt burden state budgets and wont cause medicare cuts – WHEN IT DOES ALL OF THE ABOVE.
Pelosi lies when she says Medicare is a ‘cost saver’, they were told in July the numbers dont add up. There is no Medicare ’savings’ unless you screw doctors with lower reimbursements, a trick the Senate tried to ‘fix’ last week and Reid got caught in the lie and lost his vote!
Let me clarify this – the CBO ’scores’ are using non-existent and never-to-happen Medicare ’savings’ that would require huge reimbursement cuts – enough to make doctors flee the whole system. If Reid and Pelosi were honest, they wouldnt be counting these phantom cuts in the ’score’, nor would they separate out the ‘doc fix’ from the main bill. That’s $300 billion right there. Be honest and put it together!
These backroom, backdoor mind-games and deals are the death of democracy. Whatever happened to the transparent and open process that Obama promised?
This bill is an absolute and utter turkey. It is the wrong concept and needs to be 100% scrapped. No new taxes, no new entitlements, no mandates. Just fix the pre-existing conditions issue (which would be zero cost to Federal budget) and leave the rest for when our economy recovers.THAT would be common-sense approach… since the progressives that run the Democrat party are putting selfish ideology ahead of common sense, the voters are going to give the Democrats a HUGE backlash.
I'll call them.
But they won't like what I call them.
Thank you for your list. I have copied it on to an MS Word document.
I called my senators and reps about TARP.
They didn’t listen.
I called them about the stimulus.
Our rep voted for it.
They have sold their souls to satan.
I will vote against them in 2012, even though all of ACORN’s new dead voters will cancel out my vote.
Yes, I’m depressed and disgusted.
And quite BITTER!
It’s still good that you are taking action.
I posted this before, (and maybe you’ve already participated), but if you want to send all senators and representatives a pink slip, you can do so for $29.95. Here is the link:

Over 4 million have been sent. Four million pink slips cannot help but be noticed by government officials, even though the MSM have not reported on it. The more the merrier.
