YOUR "BLUE DOG DEMOCRAT" REPRESENTATIVE WILL
DECIDE, Your congressman calls himself a "blue dog Democrat" -- a Democrat, but not just a puppet for Nancy Pelosi when it really matters. This week, we will find out. Up until now, the jury is still out. True, it was the "blue dogs" who kept the repeal of the D.C. gun law from being stripped from the bill to grant the District a voting representative in Congress. But it was also many of the "blue dogs" who gave Pelosi the deciding votes to pass the $789 billion "stimulus bill" -- with its massive government database of health/gun-related information. (And Pelosi reportedly had more "blue dogs" in her stable if she needed them.) But, even after the anti-gun database was created, it is still possible to avoid it, by carefully choosing your doctor and health care provider. This week's health care bill would kill that "gun privacy loophole." It would put the Obama administration charge of determining what kind of insurance virtually every American is required to have -- and, in the process, what information Americans are required to provide to that database. Apparently, Pelosi has determined that, because of her "Democratic" votes, there are no limits to her ability to tax you, regulate your health decisions, and take away your personal privacy. Barack Obama campaigned on the promise that he would not tax the middle-class. But, under the Pelosi bill, at least 48,000,000 middle- to lower-class Americans will be required to purchase whatever insurance coverage the government mandates -- at a cost to be mandated by the government AFTER THE BILL IS PASSED. But the cost could be well above the current $12,700 per family average. Get insurance coverage from your employer? The Pelosi bill would encourage your boss to pay a small fine and dump your health coverage. This means that, like the uninsured (which you would now become), you will be required to purchase an Obama-certified insurance policy -- at a cost which will, again, be determined only after the bill is passed. The bill also contains a $540,000,000,000 tax increase -- largely on small businesses -- right in the middle of a recession. This tax could easily bankrupt your employer and cost you your job. So, when Barack Obama promised that he would allow you to keep your current health insurance -- or that he would not force Americans to buy insurance they didn't want -- forget about that. That promise has gone the way of Obama's promise not to attack the Second Amendment. So the question is: Will your "blue dog Democrat" congressman become a puppet for Nancy Pelosi when it really counts -- or will he stand up against this atrocity? ACTION: Write your congressman. Tell him this is the week "the rubber hits the road." We need to know whether he is going to "jump" when Pelosi tells him to -- and support the anti-gun health bill hatched by Harlem rent cheat Charles Rangel -- or whether he is going to stand up to Pelosi's gun database on behalf of the Second Amendment.
