Blowing Senator Warner's Cover

The Huffington Post has reported that Senator Mark Warner is working behind the scenes to "tinker" with a public option. I believe Senator Warner is trying to stop or weaken the public option. I contacted Warner's office and one of his aides tried to give me the line that I shouldn't believe Arianna Huffington. I replied why shouldn't I? Senator Mark Warner consistently has REFUSED to publicly state his position on the public option. I did NOT get the aides name because he hung up on me before I could finish my one sentence statement. (This would NEVER happen to a constituent of Senator Bernie Sanders of Vermont. I have always found his staff incredibly respectful even though I am not a constituent.) BTW, Senator Bernie Sanders is NOT a Republicrat; he is an INDEPENDENT. (I cannot tell the difference between the Democratic party that I supported with my money and my vote in this election and the Republicans who used to run our Congress. Most of the Republicrats cater to the lobbyists to pocket the cash......so....

I repeat. I have NO REASON to trust Senator Mark Warner's support for Health Care Reform that benefits me. It appears that Senator Mark Warner is more interested in collecting money and working behind the scenes for the health insurance companies.

Well Senator Warner I would love to see you prove this post wrong. I challenge you to come out of the shadows and publicly make an honest stand on health insurance reform so your constituents will see who you are representing on this issue.

Posting this twice due to request for labels and the huffington post source so I did a bit of editing) The challenge to Senator Warner stands....Please please prove me wrong...

Hey! Pigs are flying AGAIN! We BOTH don't trust Senator Warner!

I'm sure that its for opposite reasons, but, hey! What the heck...

btw, where in the Constitution does it authorize Congress to mandate that we purchase health insurance or be fined?

I'm starting to love Flying Pigs!!

I also agree about the constitution and the mandates.
That's an insurance company initiative if I ever saw one.

I believe they want to mandate coverage because Medicare is broke. And they know that there is no way to pay for it. That said, single payer will also bankrupt the country. We can't afford anything right now until we get our deficit under control. Medicare/aid is 37 TRILLION in unfunded mandates. Our debt is reaching our GDP.

We need a complete overhaul. If we want "single payer" what are we willing to give up?
