ACTION ALERT FOR FLORIDA 24TH CONGRESSIONAL DISTRICT
From an e-mail by Dr. Howard Dean
his morning, President Bush rejected health care for children. Now it's time for Democrats to reject President Bush.
If we can get 2/3 of Congress to stand up to President Bush, we can overturn his veto on the State Children's Health Insurance Program -- a program that provides health insurance for millions of kids.
We need your help to get those votes.
We've set up a simple tool that will allow you to write a letter and send it to your members of Congress instantly. Send your Senators and Representative a message telling them to stand up to George Bush:

"there's nothing wrong with our reps."
Don't adjust your reps?
"You are traveling through another dimension, a dimension not only of sight and sound but of mind. A journey into a wondrous land of imagination. Next stop, the Republican Zone."
"It is the middle ground between light and shadow, between science and superstition, and it lies between the pit of man's fears and the summit of his knowledge."

Perhaps this is the twilight of the Republicans, we can only hope.

I just sent this to mine.
Even if they voted "yea" before, remind them of what you want.
I could write a book on the problems over the last few years.
I can't even pay for his shots at a family clinic out of my own pocket, because the state is suppose to pay.

Please override the president's veto.
My son's quality of healthcare as an adopted child has declined to the point where I must go to the County Health Dept. for his immunizations.
BUT, at least he has healthcare.
We don't, and there are plenty of other families like us.
86% of WE THE PEOPLE support the bill. They would authorize you to use their tax dollars to help care for our nation's kids?
We provide healthcare for people in prison.
What's wrong with this picture?
Children are a valuable national resouce.
George would sign it if it was to protect oil wells, now wouldn't he?
You are right.
The President takes an oath to defend the country against all enemies foreign and domestic.
What about those domestic enemies our our children's life, breath and happiness? Children with cancer, cystic fibrosis and paralysis?
Is the country going to leave some of the children defenseless?

especially to the insurance companies.... and they know if they get a taste of "socialized medicine" they will want more of it...
This is exactly what "IT" is all about.
Bush, protecting the vulnerable wealthy from thosee mean old poor and the middle classes.
Buncha neocon crybabies...."please don't take our monye away!!!" not for war, not for peace, not for roads or BRIDGES, Bush is there for one purpose, to complete that great transfer of wealth he has taken from our gandchildren and given to the billionaires of today.
Every one of those dollars has our childrens' names on it.
