Democrats plan hundreds of reform rallies

I will wait till Kerry presents his long awaited defense...in the meantime, explain the organized "grassroots" arm of the DNC......
 
GASP! LOOK the fucking hypocrites are ORGANIZING!

"Reform supporters are planning to hold more than 500 events between Wednesday and when lawmakers return to Washington Sept. 8, ranging from neighborhood organized phone banks to professionally staffed rallies with hundreds of people.


The Democratic National Committee and its grassroots arm, Organizing for America, are helping to organize the effort along with the Health Care for America Now, a group pushing to create government-run insurance plan."


And remember "unions" get to keep their healthcare.

Faced with a souring public mood on health care reform, Democrats and their supporters are launching a national grassroots push Wednesday to show lawmakers that the majority of Americans still support overhauling the system.


Reform supporters are planning to hold more than 500 events between Wednesday and when lawmakers return to Washington Sept. 8, ranging from neighborhood organized phone banks to professionally staffed rallies with hundreds of people.


The Democratic National Committee and its grassroots arm, Organizing for America, are helping to organize the effort along with the Health Care for America Now, a group pushing to create government-run insurance plan.


“In these last few weeks of recess we want to demonstrate the energy, passion and commitment that the American people have to health insurance reform so that when members return after Labor Day they know that they can turn their attention to getting this done because they have the backing of the American people,” said DNC spokesman Brad Woodhouse.


Supporters have their work cut out for them. Many lawmakers were thunderstruck over the August recess by the anger and outrage expressed by their constituents in town hall meetings across the country. And in poll after poll, support for reform has eroded throughout the month.


But Democrats and their allies insist that the majority of Americans still support reform and have organized the grassroots campaign to buck up lawmakers as they get ready to head back to Washington.


A health-insurance-reform-now bus will travel the country starting Wednesday and anchor events in 11 cities: Phoenix, Albuquerque, Denver, Des Moines, Pittsburgh, Raleigh, Charlotte, Milwaukee, St. Louis, Indianapolis and Columbus, Ohio.


But the talk of broad health insurance reform does mean that progressives have backed off their push for a government-run insurance option.


“We want members of Congress to get back to work and pass reform that means something. We need affordable care. We need real insurance regulation. And we need a strong public health insurance option,” said HCAN spokeswoman Jacki Schechner. “It’s doable and we expect it to get done now.”

Union members are Americans.

If they want to support their political preferances then whats wrong with that?

You see your team is lying about the facts and if the Union people ( americans everyone of them) want to try and clear up the lies of ,say some station owned and run by some Aussie guy who lives in the UK and seems to think lying to the American people is real fun, and get the truth to the union memebers fellow Americans I can not see a thing wrong with it.
 
the Democrats are so sure that a majority want this piece of crap bill, they have to get Union members "ORGINIZED" to protest, and call them grassroots...all the while calling conservatives protesting-astroturfers..

ya just gotta laugh at the hypocrisy..
 
Why do you hate your fellow Americans so much?

They work, they pay taxes, they add to the economy.

They are not some fucking Aussie with massive family money buying the American peoples vote with lies.
