Letter to Senator Schumer
Dear Senator Schumer:
There are no more excuses! Al Franken has given you the critical 60th vote.
Please understand that "bipartisanship" is dead. It was murdered by the Republican party, who put it on life support during the last administration, then delivered the death blow at the beginning of this year. Now that we have to worry about fixing what was broken by the Republicans, we do not need their obstructionism to solve our problems.
You have the chance of a lifetime to deliver something long wanted by the people of New York who's health and welfare have suffered at the hands of corporate greed. D.I.N.O.S. like Max Baucus and Joe Lieberman should not be allowed to dictate the legislation coming from our party.
I don't want you to be conciliatory. If compromise means weakening of Public Option, then that would not only be wrong, it would be undemocratic as 70% of the American people want a Health care system, and are sick and tired of being prisoners of the insurance companies. Senator, take the blinders off, see sense!
