Sen. John McCain - Scrap Health Care Reform and Start Over




Scrap Health Care Reform and Start Over


We'd like to gather 100,000 signatures on this petition before tomorrow's summit. Sign the petition today


My Friend,


This week, President Obama unveiled a "new" health care reform proposal that was little more than a regurgitation of the flawed legislation passed by Senate Democrats on Christmas Eve.


He believes we need to completely overhaul our health care system, putting the government in charge of your health care, and will host a summit tomorrow to sell this plan.


I've been invited and plan to attend tomorrow's summit and I can assure you I will do everything in my power to represent our point of view.


What we must do is scrap the current plan for a government takeover of health care and start over. Two-thirds of Americans agree that we must start over if we are to reform health care in the right way.




Last year, we gathered nearly 250,000 signatures from men and women across the country opposed to government-run health care.


That support helped boost our argument in Congress against the Democrats' plan. Today, I need your immediate support to continue fighting against the takeover attempts from the left. That's why your signature is urgently needed.


President Obama and Congressional Democrats seem to ignore public opinion polling that strongly states Americans do not favor their plans.


We thought they'd get the message when Scott Brown won an overwhelming victory last month, but unfortunately, they have begun to push their plans for a takeover once again.


We cannot afford government-run health care. The costs are simply too high. What we must do is start over. I hope you'll join me in calling for this by immediately signing this petition.


If we can gather at least 100,000 signatures overnight from our grassroots community, it will send an immediate message in advance of this summit that Americans want to start over.


After signing the petition, you will have the opportunity to make a donation to my reelection campaign. I humbly ask that you give as generously as possible so that I may continue serving on your behalf in the United States Senate.


My friend, our fight against government takeover of your health care is far from over and we must continue fighting.


The Obama bill is full of sweetheart special deals like the atrocious "Cornhusker Kickback" and "Louisiana Purchase." This legislation can't be fixed - it must be scrapped. I hope you will join me right now by signing our "Scrap Health Care Reform and Start Over" petition.


Sincerely,



John McCain

P.S. Tomorrow, President Obama will host a health care reform summit to discuss his proposed overhaul of our health care system. I believe to achieve real reform; we must scrap it and start over. If you agree, I ask that you sign our
"Scrap Health Care Reform and Start Over" petition. We'd like to gather 100,000 signatures overnight to send a message to the left, and your immediate action will help us reach this goal. Thank you for your support.

If Republicans show up with a plan, don't fall into the "keep an open mind" trap that will be set, and don't cave to Obama, the plan is dead and the Republicans will no longer be in danger of being the "party of no" in the eyes of the public.

Good luck Sen. McCain. Unity will open the door to success in November. Conservatism is the key to victory.

If Republicans show up today as the party of NO, they are going to look weak, and it will cost you many seats around the country. Too many of us care about the 45,000 people that die each year because they don't have health care. Can't you come up with at least one good idea of how to increase health care while cutting the cost, and please dont keep repeating cut taxes. Bush proved that doesn't work.

THe Republicans have some great ideas to reform health care. All of them will work and they will not require tax increases. Tonight will be interesting and, if done correctly, will end the rediculous plan submitted by the Far Left and their ilk.

Scrap the old, submit the new, debate it, consider all the Citizens and legal imigrants of this country, give only emergency care to the Illegals living in this country and pass a Reform bill that has meaning and substance.

After tonight, the Democrats will be known as the party of:

"all show and no go."
