How do I reach Tom Daschle?

[WinstonSmith4740]

This is probably posted somewhere here, but I really want to write to this asshat and tell him to shut the hell up! He did nothing but cave to the reich wing when he "led" the senate, and he's still caving. He feels "consensus" is more important that results. :mad: :nuke:

1. Give him a big hearty "Fuck You you limp dick SOB" from me!

Boy I got a nasty mouth tonight.

8. Copy of what I sent to Tom.

I thought you were a whimp when you lead the Senate, but NOW you're worse! Why are you against the average American and all business in America...except of course the insurance companies & the Pharmaceuticals? Shame on you Tom. Yea the money is good, but is selling your soul really worth it?

11. Be sure and copy the White House AND Harry Reid's office

Obama HAS to get rid of Daschle and others like him... How DARE they be put in a position to sell out Obama's policy and OURS?

9. If you want to look him in the eye and talk with him, start by putting your head up his ass

10. Ditto... and takes his stupid red glasses with him...

(Childish, I know, but I am absolutely disgusted with him and others that are in the pocket of the industry and SELLING US OUT)

12. Will you be bringing a check or a big sack of cash?

If it's the cash he may want you to come in the back door.

13. Thanks, everyone!

Knew I could count on you!

Here's my email to him:
Senator Daschle,

With all due respect, are you kidding? Aside from your connections to the insurance industry, can you come up with one good reason not to support single payer insurance for all of us? Your involvment in the right wing's determination to keep the rest of us from decent health care is just heart-breaking. Haven't you figured out yet that the Republican definition of "bi-partisanship" is "Democrats have to do what WE want or we'll make their lives miserable"? The concept of "equal access" is bull.... and you know it. Anyone that can afford to sit down and write a check for hundreds of dollars a month can have "access" to health care. However, a vast majority of Americans can't do that. I won't go into my tale of woe right now, but I've had experience with both private insurance and Medicare...Medicare beat the pants off our private policy.

We NEED single payer, and the argument put out just doesn't fly. On one hand, you argue that Single Payer will be so popular that private insurance won't be able to compete. Maybe if they stop paying themselves huge bonuses for failure, they'd be able to lower their rates to be competitive. On the other hand, you then argue that Single Payer will be terrible, none of us would get the health care we need, etc. Make up your minds...you can't have it both ways. Oh, and by the way, doesn't capitalism dictate that if you can't compete you deserve to go out of business?

You either need to lead, follow, or get out of the way. You don't seem willing to lead, the people you're following are heartless and greedy, so will you please just get out of the way? Stop trying to derail President Obama's pledge to us.
