Health Care: Let's finish the fight!

An interesting post from www.ncpa.org about finishing the fight against healthcare. This follows this article about Barack Obama possibly losing his upcoming midterms. For more interesting stories like this click here to follow this blog.


LET'S FINISH THE FIGHT!
We've come along way together in the last eight months and for the first time we've got a fighting chance to stop government-run health care. We didn't start this fight, but now it's time for us to finish it. Here's how:
The First Punch: Contact the Stupak Supporters. Sixty-four House Democrats supported the Stupak (abortion) amendment - legislation that doesn't exist in the Senate version and is unlikely to make it through on reconciliation. As such, these House members might vote against government-run health care if convinced.
The Shot to the Body: Write the Disloyal Opposition. Sixteen House Democrats opposed the overall bill but voted for it on partisan lines. They're ripe for well-placed letters, phone calls, emails and member visits.
The Knock-Out Blow: Collar the Blue Dogs. Eleven House Democrats are self-described moderates. While they supported the bill during Round 1, Round 15 is getting close-and they may be ready for a change we can believe in.
To implement this three-prong strategy, however, we need your support. You've taken us half way there; now we need the rest so that we can beat back government-run health care!

Remember: IT AIN'T OVER! The headlines are encouraging, but the proponents of government-run health care still have power and are trying to convince their colleagues that the American people really aren't as upset as all that. Congress needs to hear your voice:
Go to Free Our Health Care NOW!
Enter your personal information and click TAKE ACTION!
You can write a letter or make a phone call. You can do either; both are important!
Thank you for your continued support of the NCPA.
