Hi all,
Before I attended Nebraska Rep. Lee Terry's TH last week, I researched his stance on HCR. Basically, he wants to let everyone in on the Federal Employee's Benefit Plan. I called his office to see if there were any specifics, but alas, they had none. After talking with Greg, Terry's staffer, several times, he could not answer my questions (how much would it cost, who pays the employer costs, what kind of sliding scale) He stated numerously that the CBO will not score it. I asked for any information, like a analysis that might be akin to a college paper, but again he said there wasn't any.

I attended the TH but had to leave b/c I could not believe what I was hearing. He lied and the audience applauded. It made me sick, so I left. I had to unplug for a while.
(I have to tell you all something, I am a bored housewife with nothing to do most days. In fact I have to invent things to do. It's actually mind numbing. I am a graduate and I worked as an financial analyst until six years ago when my son got a rare chronic condition. It is now under control and I am looking for a cause.)
Today, I decided my cause was to find as much as I can about Lee Terry. I started at YouTube. I found out that I wasn't the only person in Omaha that wasn't buying what he was selling.
Watch the clip.
