Our senators and reps have a credibility problem with health care, They are all on a government run tax payer funded health care program, it has replaced, hips, knees, treated cancer and heart problems. . If it is good enough for them why is it not good enough for us. We should demand their health care program be doped until the are willing to give us the people who gave it to them the same. How is it the government is not competent enough to expand the same health care they have to everyone but they are competent enough to run the country? Government health care is good enough for thees senators but not for you they don't support a public option. Senator Blanche Lincoln (D-AR) Senator Tom Carper (D-DE) Senator Maria Cantwell (D-WA) Senator Ron Wyden (D-OR)Senator Bill Nelson (D-FL)Senator Mary Landrieu (D-LA)Senator Kay Hagan (D-NC)
Senator Kent Conrad (D-ND)Senator Max Baucus (D-MT)
Call you senator and rep up ask them why government ran health care is good enough for them?
Ask them to give up their health care until we have the same healthcare that they have?
Ask them if the government is not competent enough to expand their health care plan to all what makes them thank they are competent enough to run the country and military?
Start a petition to remove health care from our senators reprs and president, it is not good enough for us so it should not be good enough for them

New Budget Estimate Of Public Plan Proves It Lowers Cost And Covers More Americans

Health Care Reform : New HELP Bill Covers 97 Percent Of Americans, Costs $600 Billion
So health care reform WITH a public option would cost $400 billion less than reform WITHOUT a public option. Seems pretty clear which way we should go.



And what kind of health insurance system does Israel have, Senator Joe Lieberman?

"Since the establishment of the State of Israel in 1948, the issue of health care has never left the public agenda. The public debate on reform of the health system has focused on enactment of a national health insurance law. Reform was spurred by recommendations of the Natanyahu Commission (1990). Its recommendations served as a catalyst for the passage of the National Health Insurance Law which came into effect on January 1, 1995." - Israel Ministry of Foreign Affairs
