Remember, NO COMPROMI$E ... EVERYONE IN and NO ONE LEFT OUT!!!

I just hope that Obama still feels the way he did when he said this:

"I happen to be a proponent of a single payer universal health care program." (applause) "I see no reason why the United States of America, the wealthiest country in the history of the world, spending 14 percent of its Gross National Product on health care cannot provide basic health insurance to everybody. And that's what Jim is talking about when he says everybody in, nobody out. A single payer health care plan, a universal health care plan. And that's what I'd like to see. But as all of you know, we may not get there immediately. Because first we have to take back the White House, we have to take back the Senate, and we have to take back the House."

Obama speaking to the Illinois AFL-CIO, June 30, 2003.

Because now that all those conditions that he mentioned in the last sentence have been met it is time to get the "single payer universal health care" he spoke about so passionately in the first sentence.

YES WE CAN! YES WE CAN! YES WE CAN!


Here's a video clip of Obama supporting universal health care in 2003:

Write to the President, every day to remind him that he promised us all health "care" not health in$urance:
