Call Now to Stop Obamacare Plan!(An email from Newsmax.com)

Dear Friend,

We MUST keep the pressure up on Congress, we can NEVER surrender.

Even though it's Christmas, Obama and his allies are plotting to ram through their socialistic health plan.

In the dark of the night, Harry Reid and Senate Democrats rammed through Congress a health care BILL that will radically change our health care system.

Because hanging in the balance is the future of America – freedom or socialism. The League of American Voters needs your help to fight Obama Care every single step of the way.

As you know, Dick Morris, our chief strategist, crafted our powerful campaign that caused the Democrats to modify their plans, especially in the Senate. In the Senate plan, they did away with the "Public Option" which would have bankrupted private insurers, they did away with giving Medicare for everyone over 55 which would HAVE enormously increased the public debt, they did away with a 5% "rich" income tax to fund Obamacare.

But this does not mean the Democrats won't plan to sneak through these terrible proposals when the final bill comes out of the House and Senate conference.

We know that liberal Democrats are scheming to “revisit” the Public Option.

“It will be revisited,” boasts leftist Democrat Senator Tom Harkin. “This is just the beginning. … What we’re building is a starter home, not a mansion. And guess what? We have room for expansions and additions later on.”

Former DNC Chair Howard Dean: “I would let this thing go to conference committee, and let’s see if we can fix it some more.”

“We now have to fight for the changes in the conference committee,” added SEIU union boss Andy Stern.

But let there be no doubt. Even without the “Public Option,” Harry Reid’s bill creates a government-run plan where non-elected bureaucrats are empowered to stand between patients and doctors.

It is still a disaster for healthcare in America. It must be defeated!

* Medicare is slashed by $470 billion, including cuts to Medicare home health care services. These are cuts the Congressional Budget Office says will "reduce access to care or diminish the quality of care” for seniors

* Medicare Advantage is cut $120 billion for seniors

* Raises taxes by $518 billion, including new taxes on the middle class, new taxes on wheelchairs, pacemakers, heart valves, and other medical devices, and new taxes on individuals and employers who do not retain the type of health care plans that Washington dictates

* Senate Democrats’ bill creates an Independent Medicare Advisory Board (IMAB) of non-elected government bureaucrats, empowered to cut Medicare providers limited access to care for seniors

* The bill forces a huge unfunded federal mandate on states to expand Medicaid, with the exception of those states where Democrat senators cut “sweetheart deals” with Obama and Reid for their vote

If you live in any of the following states, you MUST call your Senator NOW. If you don’t live in one of these states, call anyway!

Tell them you are a member of the League of American Voters and that you oppose both the Reid and Pelosi Obamacare plans.

Call the U.S. Senate switchboard at (202) 224-3121 and ask to be connected.

Tell the Senate you OPPOSE the Obamacare Plan and that they must vote AGAINST it!

Also, we here at the League along with Dick Morris are already planning our next phase: fighting the final bill.

Remember, it takes just ONE senator to say "NO" and vote against the bill to stop Obamacare dead in its tracks.
