From the Palatine Tea Party folks…
(Palatine, Illinois) – March 4, 2010 – We reject Melissa Bean on the issue of health-care. The citizens in the 8th district do not have a voice with Melissa Bean. She hides from her constituents and can not defend her vote on health-care.
On November 7th, 2009 she voted yes for government run health-care and for federally funded abortion services. These votes do not represent the majority of people which live in the 8th district. She is out of touch with the voters.
Her vote on health-care will expand our federal government and our national debt which is currently over 12,000,000,000,000 and increasing at a rate of over 1,000,000,000 an hour. This is unacceptable and un-sustainable. This additional debt will be passed along to our children and grandchildren to repay. Melissa Bean’s reckless spending spree with our money is coming to a halt.
You cannot add millions of people into a health-care system without affecting the overall quality. Anyone who understands free market principles can understand the simple concept of “supply” and “demand”. This is nothing more than a power play to take away individual freedoms and place it in the hands of the federal government.
“You never want a serious crisis to go to waste. And what I mean by that is an opportunity to do things you think you could not do before.” – Rahm Emanuel
Melissa Bean votes 90.2% with her party (D) in the U.S. House of Representatives and will vote for health-care as Nancy Pelosi wants. This is not the state of California and the city of San Francisco. Melissa Bean will be held accountable for her votes come this November.
The voters of Virginia, New Jersey, and Massachusetts have already spoken and Illinois will be heard come November.
