I just sent the following letter to Senators Webb and Warner:

[trayfoot]

Senator,

We are writing to URGE you to support a PUBLIC OPTION for healthcare. We believe that the insurance companies who are in the business for PROFIT should have to compete against a public option. Expensive a public option may be, but certainly not more expensive than the useless wars the taxpayers have been funding all these years. If Congress is unwilling to give the public decent healthcare options, then healthcare for you federal workers should be pared down considerably. When elected officials have to live like the rest of American society, maybe they will, then, begin to understand the outrage that we are feeling.

1. I just sent an e-mail to Obama and Feinstein

Boxer's office assured me last week she was for a public option. Barbara Lee always does the right thing.
