An Urgent Message From the League of American Voters


Dear Friend:

We at the League of American Voters have been warning Americans not to become complacent about the Obama health care plan.

It is not dead.

We have NOT won this battle.

Soon after Labor Day, Congress returns from summer recess.

Obama is going to push for a quick vote on his plan.

Despite the fact this summer we witnessed mass protests against the Obama plan, there has been no suggestion from the Obama White House that they will compromise with Republicans.

In fact, Democratic efforts to quickly fill the seat of Teddy Kennedy in Massachusetts suggest that the Obama White House is frantic to push through their radical plan.

You see, with big majorities in the Senate and the House, Obama could easily pass a compromise health care bill, one that does not offer the "public option" or adds 50 million new patients to government health care, without the Kennedy seat vote.

But he does need that Massachusetts vote if he wants to overrule all Senate Republicans and get a 60 vote majority -- one that allows him to overcome a filibuster.

So far, Obama's modus operandi has been to go for the political jugular and avoid any compromise.

He will do it again.

Please help us stop him — Go Here Now

There is no question Obama has staked out an extreme position. He wants to take over one-sixth of the U.S. economy.

He knows the so-called "public option" will eventually put private insurers out of business and lead to complete control of government health care.

I am simply amazed how time and again Obama simply lies about his intentions.

He has told the national press his plan does not include an estimated 12 million illegal aliens.

But both the Senate and House bills outlining the Obama plan specifically do not exclude illegals from getting free government care.

And when House Republicans pushed the Heller Amendment to block illegals from getting free health care, Pelosi and her minions voted it down.

Again, Obama lied when asked if his plan would fund abortions.

He said it would not.

But when Republicans pushed for an amendment to block taxpayer funds from being used for abortions, Democrats voted it down.

There is a reason Obama must lie.

He knows that when Americans realize the full implications of his plan they will say "NO!"

We made incredible progress informing Americans this summer of the dangers of Obama Care.

Still, Obama has large majorities and he wants his radical plan rammed through Congress.

And too many Americans who oppose Obama Care are becoming complacent.

This is why we at the League of American Voters want to step up our national TV ad campaigns as Congress returns to Washington.

We need to keep the heat on Congress and inform the public.

We need your help to do it. Please Go Here Now to Help!

Dick Morris, the famous Fox News analyst, says the League of American Voters is the number one group fighting Obama Care.

We urgently need your help to continue this fight.

Please look at our powerful TV ad and also help us in this battle.

Thank you.

Sincerely,

Bob Adams
Executive Director

P.S. In my last email I warned of the "Kennedy effect" — that Democrats would try to use sympathy for Ted Kennedy to help them push through their radical plan. Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid admitted to this plan to a Nevada newspaper. "I think it's going to help us," Reid told the Reno Gazette-Journal. It's vitally important we rally in favor of a common sense solution to our health care problems, not more socialism. Please take a moment to help us stop the "Kennedy effect" — Go Here Now
