I received the following e-mail today asking for more money in the battle for health care reform!
Why the heck is OFA asking for more money when we already donated our time, money, sweat and tears to get President Obama elected with a mandate of the vote?!
Not only that, we helped give the Democrats a veto-proof majority in the Senate!
Why does anybody need more money? Enough already - they've been elected and they're already on the payroll!!
I say to the President and the Democrats in congress: "We gave you the mandate, now start acting like it and get to work for us by making sure a public option is in the final health care bill!"
Health care reform without a public option will be a BIG win for the Republicans and the Insurance industry. We didn't work our hearts out so that could happen.
FIGHT - FOR OUR RIGHT - FOR HEALTHCARE - WITH A PUBLIC OPTION!!!!!!!
My response to the letter below - "Not another cent until we get the guarantee that any final bill will contain a true public option!!!!" Karl --On Thursday, Vice President Biden called out the insurance industry's escalating war on health reform in a special message to OFA, and asked for your help in fighting back.Sure enough, the insurance industry is already stepping up the attack: Reports just leaked from a closed-door meeting where insurance industry lobbyists frantically warned Republican members of Congress that it was not in their interest to "ever vote for this thing" and said supporting reform is like "giving comfort to the enemy." USA Today is reporting that groups opposing reform are lobbying at "a record pace" -- and the Associated Press notes that they've already spent an astounding $32 million on TV ads this year.This is what we're up against. President Obama, Vice President Biden, and all of us together through OFA are fighting back -- but success depends on having the resources to win.Can you chip in $25 or more today to power our campaign?https://donate.barackobama.com/FinalRoundIn this fight, the insurance industry has their war chest and insider lobbyists. We have you.
