Syntax

Syntaxn & manners: He sounds strange when you talk to him & he did not even want to sell me what I wanted. He tried to impress me that he knows more than I do, and then sell me on whatever he thinks is best. I always did business with the thought or at least the impression that the customer always knows best. I think he has a surpeority complex. Sarah Palin puts words together than this bloke.

Fred Klaske

I ran into Fred Klaske at Fidelity Roof Company. I wanted to buy a solar system for my company, but after meeting this guy, I just couldn't imagine doing business with such a strange one. I would say that this guy is bad for the environment. I would rather burn coal than work with someone like this. I dod a google and found your article. Thanks for the heads up & letting me know that my intuition has backing. Hard to believe that he didn't even live in the district that he was running in. What a waste of $100K. Glad it was not my money.

Re: How committed are you?

I would be proud to join my colleagues in the Progressive Caucus in signing the aforementioned petition to the Administration and Secretary Sebelius.

I am committed to standing behind the public option as the primary mechanism of health care reform.

Thank you for the opportunity to highlight my commitment to this issue.

Senator Mark DeSaulnier

How committed are you?

If elected, would you sign onto this letter to Secty. Kathleen Sebelius stating that you would not vote for a health care plan without a public option?

The Honorable Kathleen Sebelius
Secretary, U.S. Department of Health & Human Services
200 Independence Avenue, S.W. Washington, D.C. 20201
Dear Secretary Sebelius,
We write to you concerning your recent comments about the public option in health insurance reform.
We stand in strong opposition to your statement that the public option is "not the essential element" of comprehensive reform. The opportunity to improve access to healthcare is a onetime opportunity. Americans deserve reform that is real-not smoke and mirrors. We cannot rely solely on the insurance companies' good faith efforts to provide for our constituents. A robust public option is essential, if we are to ensure that all Americans can receive healthcare that is accessible, guaranteed and of high-quality.
To take the public option off the table would be a grave error; passage in the House of Representatives depends upon inclusion of it.
We have attached, for your review, a letter from 60 Members of Congress who are firm in their Position that any legislation that moves forward through both chambers, and into a final proposal for the President's signature, MUST contain a public option.

Not illegal

Katie doesn't need to say anything. As the letter states, nothing has been done that is illegal. This letter is merely a request. The State Department has no standing in US elections, the FEC does. This is a desperate ploy by a desperate campaign. ....and the beat goes on.
