Like many of you, one year ago, I traveled about 80 miles, stayed overnight in a hotel and was at my election protection post at 5:30 a.m.
Here's what I just wrote to the White House.gov.
What did you write?
I SUPPORT Howard Dean and his recent comments.
Dean speaks to and for many of us.
I am not happy to hear of members of the administration's behavior and commentary regarding Dr. Dean's outspoken but thoughtful view on heathcare reform.
I am frankly tired of appeasement politics. And, I don't appreciate the tone -- "lecturing" to traditional Deomcrats about supporting corporate interests.
My family have supported New York Democrats for over a century. My grandmother stood witness to the Triangle fire. What kind of fire will it take -- how many Americans will have to die for this administration to take a stand against those who stand in the way of real progress.
Yes, I (and others like me) do indeed understand how business works and how economic growth is supported. And the interests of the insurance companies counters job-creation and our ability to compete on the world markets.
