Friend --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.

Friend --After months of negotiations, the entire House and Senate will soon start debating the final plans for health insurance reform. You've called your representatives, but we can't stop there -- if the American people are going to drown out the D.C. lobbyists, we need everyone who supports reform to weigh in. So here's the plan:On Tuesday, October 20th, OFA volunteers will gather at "Time to Deliver" Call Parties in living rooms like yours across the country. We'll call friendly voters whose voices matter in this debate, talk to them about the President's plan, and ask them to call on their representatives to support reform.Our goal? 100,000 calls to Congress placed or committed to in a single day. It's an ambitious goal, but the stakes couldn't be higher -- and if we hit it, we cannot be ignored.The whole plan begins by finding a place for OFA volunteers to gather -- in Aurora and across the country. And that's why I'm turning to you.Can you host a Time to Deliver Call Party on Tuesday, October 20th?Hosting a call party is surprisingly easy. No special experience required, and we'll provide simple step-by-step instructions. If you can print out some call sheets and info about the President's plan -- and make sure volunteers have a comfortable place to sit -- you can host a successful Call Party.You can invite your friends, we'll invite other OFA supporters in your area, and together you'll have a great time while making a huge difference.If we can get 100,000 calls to Congress placed or committed to on a single day it will set a new OFA record -- and really shake up the debate in Washington. But it won't be easy. Everything hinges on finding volunteer leaders like you who are willing to open your doors and give supporters in your area a place to gather.Can we count on you? Please sign up to host a Time to Deliver Call Party on October 20th:http://my.barackobama.com/deliverThanks for making it happen,JeremyJeremy BirdDeputy DirectorOrganizing for AmericaPaid for by Organizing for America, a project of the Democratic National Committee -- 430 South Capitol Street SE, Washington, D.C. 20003.

Friend --The cavalry is here -- and they're in white coats and scrubs: More than a half a million doctors and millions of nurses are joining forces to help pass real health reform.Americans listen to their nurses and doctors when it comes to health reform -- and for good reason. If we can help them amplify their voices, it'll be a huge boost to our campaign for change.So we're working on a new television ad featuring their voices explaining why doctors and nurses so strongly support President Obama's plan -- and asking Congress to pass it. We'll run the ad in key states and districts all around the country to show folks where health professionals stand, cut through the spin, and build even greater support for reform.But to produce and air the new ad before the Senate starts debating a final bill, we'll need to raise $300,000 by Thursday. Can you donate $25 right away?The American Medical Association, Doctors for America, and a dozen other physicians groups representing 500,000 doctors are endorsing reform. So are the American Nurses Association and other organizations representing millions of nurses.They're speaking out because they see the shortcomings of our health care system firsthand, every day: patients denied the care they prescribe, families losing access to their doctors, and a system that forces them to spend more time with paperwork and less time with patients.These voices need to be heard -- with so much deception out there clouding the debate, it's critical that medical professionals are able to focus the country on the simple fact that health reform is good medicine.But the final congressional committee could vote on their reform bill as early as Wednesday -- and debate on final legislation could start by the end of the week. So if we're going to help make these doctors and nurses' voices heard, we'll need to do it right now. Can you chip in $25 or more to help get our ad on the air?https://donate.barackobama.com/HealthAdThanks,MitchMitch StewartDirectorOrganizing for AmericaPaid for by Organizing for America, a project of the Democratic National Committee -- 430 South Capitol Street SE, Washington, D.C. 20003.

In case you forgot you won the election last Nov. Why are you letting the Radical & Angry Right & the Sissy Blue Dogs (their own name for them not mine) drive the debate? The Radical Right never changes positions. They are the party of No; of hate & anger; of slander & smear. They are the party of victims (mostly of their own actions) & the party of the oppressed (in their own skewed logic). They are the party of I Got Mine, FU. The party of I Got Mine & I want yours & yours & yours & I'm entitled to his & hers even though I stole more than I earned. The party of name calling & labels. The party of Shoot First & Ask Questions Later. The party of secrecy, deception & need to know.
The self-anointed Sissy Blue Dogs . . . I don't know what their problem is. They were happy enough to ride the coattails of success. To agree with campaign rhetoric & align themselves with a winning party. If they weren't so worried about remaining in office through the next election cycle, they could give meaning to their words. If they get voted out of office in the next election cycle, it won't be because they delivered. It will be because they showed themselves to be just another pol, eager to win & not so eager to deliver or offend big campaign contributers.
If the party of Yes We Can waffles on the centerpiece of the 50 state campaign; does not deliver on campaign promises, there will be plenty of disappointment & blame to go around. I don't think it is even reasonable or helpful to adopt any old health care legislation just to get something on the books without offending the Radical & Angry, & BTW Minority Right or Fat & Bloated Insurance companies. Depending on banks to do the right thing with billions in bailout money has not worked out so well. It is just plain unacceptable to expect that insurance companies will behave any better.
When the Party of No takes offense that a duly elected President wishes to address the nation's youngest citizens in public schools where the majority of children attend & where there is the greatest need for role models & team spirit & the Yes We Can attitude, I guess there's no pleasing them. So why bother?
Organize for America the way you organized your campaign. Git 'er done. The real Blue Dogs & Red Dogs & dogs Left, Right & Center that helped get you elected are still watching . . . & waiting.

What: OFA National Health Insurance Reform Bus Tourwith National Director Mitch StewartFriday August 28th, 5pmTivoli Commons, Auraria Campus900 Auraria ParkwayDenver, CO80202Why:We need to show our strength. Millions of people all across the country, and hundreds of thousands across Colorado, support President Obama's call for Health Insurance Reform. The OFA national bus tour is making stops across the country in critical states and cities to show the broad based support for reform. Please plan on attending. NOW is the time to have our voices heard.--Mike HamrickChair
Remember one thing: Nothing is more powerful than millions of voices calling for change. That's how we won this election. You know this, and that's why since OFA launched its health reform campaign in June you've hosted 11,000 events in more than 2,500 towns in every single state and every single congressional district...I am absolutely confident that we can get this done, but I want everybody to remember, this has never been easy....We are not going to give up now. We are going to get this done.
And that's why what all of you do is so important, because people trust you -- your neighbors, your friends, fellow community members -- they trust you. They know you. And if you are presenting the facts clearly and fairly, I'm absolutely confident that we're going to win this debate. But we're going to have a lot of work to do and I'm grateful that you're willing to do it. Let's go get 'em.
