 I Wish I Was In A Union! Not that I'm in favor of taxing union members health plans. Quite the opposite - Government needs to get the hell out of the knickers of those who already have health insurance. Any of you holdouts feeling Obama remorse yet???? Regularly schedule missive to one of my incontinent, er, I mean incompetent Senators: Dear Senator Warner: I just read in the news that Congress has reached a "deal" with unions to change the threshold for so-called "Cadillac Insurance Plans" from $23,000 to $24,000 exempting family plans valued at less than $24,000 from the evil Government health insurance excise tax. Whatever. Even more insidious than the fact that our very own stupid Government would tax the people WHO ACTUALLY HAVE HEALTH INSURANCE AND ARE NOT A BURDEN ON SOCIETY in order to subsidize those who don't (you jerks) is the fact that you are EXEMPTING UNIONS UNTIL 2017. What????? If you are a member of a union you are a protected class? YOU DO REALIZE THIS IS UNCONSTITUTIONAL, RIGHT??????????????? Stupid Congress. This includes you. I can't wait 'til 2013. WOTDO

Senator John Warner - VA
Thank you for your email regarding your position on health care reform. I understand that you prefer some sort of reform over doing nothing. On paper this sounds positive, but the reality is Congress has gone off the deep end in their haste and determination to tell the American people what to do.
I understand that the Baucus plan which is now being considered includes a bill that would increase taxes on insurance companies above and beyond their already taxed-to-death rates in order to raise revenue to cover a public option plan. I have an idea! How about we reduce the taxes on insurance companies so that they can afford to lower their policy rates thus allowing more people to buy in? Granted, that would be too smart and simple for this Government.
President Obama promised us that the requirement for Americans to purchase health coverage lest they be fined is not a tax (another one of his infamous lies - it clearly is) and now the Senate wants to tax the providers who cover millions of Americans include my family? Taxing insurance companies will result in increased rates for those of us that are responsible and have purchased private health coverage. This tax on insurance companies will simply be trickled down to me in the form of increased policy premiums. I will be paying a tax, or in Obama's words a "fee" even when I already have health coverage. I'm taxed if I do, I'm taxed if I don't!
This is unmitigated absurdity. The Democratically controlled Congress is hell-bent on taxing the life out of Americans in order to ensure "coverage" for 15 million Americans that truly can't afford it. Absurd!
Please, please pick up your brain matter and place it back in your skull. You're young. You still have a chance.
Regards,
WOTDO

Dear Hon. Wolf: I do not support the Democrats requirement that Rep. Joe Wilson apologize to Congress for his statement during President Obama's arrogant, condescending and lie-filled Presidential address Wednesday night. Joe Wilson spoke on behalf of his constituents as well as me when he called President Obama a liar that night. President Obama did lie - he lied to you, he lied to Congress and he lied to me and the rest of America. I find it unacceptable that President Obama can reprimand the Republicans in Congress during a national address without consequences, Harry Reid could call President Bush a liar on multiple occasions without being forced to apologize and President Obama encourages his supporters to “get in my face” and tells YOU to get out of his way so that he “can clean up the mess.” I'm tired of the apologies coming from Senators John Mccain, Mitch McConnell and the Republican Party. Now is not the time for apologies – now is the time for a serious offensive. I expect the Republicans in Congress to stand alongside Rep. Wilson in refusing to apologize. In doing so, if the Democratically controlled Ethics Committee deems that Rep. Wilson be censured than I want ALL Republicans censured. If we are unwilling to stand behind our own, we stand for nothing. I have just donated to Rep. Wilson's campaign fund. Best regards, WOTDO

 Rep. Joe Wilson (R) SC "You Lie!" Firstly, thank you for opposing the current health care legislation that Congress has been debating. I am 100% opposed to any form of Government-run health care because I believe it will be inefficient, bankrupt the U.S. and eventually eliminate my right to choose my own health coverage. I am, however, open to learning more about how tort reform and deregulation of the insurance industry could cut down on costs (as long as it does not infringe on individual States rights.) On another note, please give Rep. Joe Wilson from South Carolina a pat on the back for me the next time you see him. While his outburst was unconventional, I supported what he did last night and hope that the Republicans in Congress will back up his sentiment rather than begin their own version of an "Obama apology tour." Please defend Wilson since he is simply expressing the voices of the American people - and not just those in South Carolina. This issue is too important to stand down out of a sense of "decorum." As always, thank you for your hard work. Regards, WOTDO
