I didn't realize my whole blog didn't print last night. So here's what I was saying:
There is a Congressman from Louisiana that I love! He has proposed a House resolution that I'd like to call "What's good for the goose is good for the gander!" It's House Resolution 615. You may not know this but while all the politicians are changing up our healthcare they are exempt from anything they are doing to ours. They have their very own, very premium insurance for life that will be absolutely unaffected by what they do to ours. Same for the President. So this Congressman-John Fleming has offered up this resolution and asked all of our legislators to sign it. The paragraphs below are taken from his official website and explain more.
House Resolution 615
As of July 30, 2009, over 150,000 Americans from all 50 states have joined Congressman Fleming in supporting House Resolution 615. Sign the online petition and send a message to Congress - If You Vote For A Government Take Over of Health Care, Then Promise To Use The Plan!
Under the current draft of the Democrat healthcare legislation, members of Congress are curiously exempt from the government-run health care option, keeping their existing health plans and services on Capitol Hill. If Members of Congress believe so strongly that government-run health care is the best solution for hard working American families, I think it only fitting that Americans see them lead the way. Public servants should always be accountable and responsible for what they are advocating. Together we will work to ensure that any plan that is good enough for American families is good enough for every member of Congress.
Together we will work to ensure that any plan that is good enough for American families is good enough for every member of Congress.
There is a list on his website of the members of Congress and Senate who have signed it. So far no Senators have signed it and far too few Congressmen. If they don't have enough faith in what they are planning for us to use it; I don't want them forcing it on me.
You can see all this info on Congressman Fleming's website at http://fleming.house.gov
Well, that's the end of my rant for now! I'm sure there will be more later.
