Proud Veteran is absolutely correct - the folks at this meeting need to reach out to their friends and work toward getting him out of office.<br /><br />Among the most memorable moments last night - a woman asking Pallone if he would support term limits - the comic highlight of the first meeting - as the crowd roared with laughter both at the question and at Pallone's inevitable "no" response. Pallone's refusal to answer the question when asked if he supported forcing health care providers to perform procedures that went against moral and religious beliefs. Pallone's assertion (again met with laughter and jeers) that this bill would offset what it costs "all of us" when people go to the Emergency Room for health care because they don't have insurance and how HR3200 would offset this - an assertion that 95% of the room recognized as opening the door to covering illegal aliens.<br /><br />Pallone had an awful lot of "I'll have to look into that" answers for a guy who sponsored this bill. Perhaps his pat answer should have been, "I'll have to look into how best to shove my liberal redistribution, socialist agenda down your throats." Well Frank, a spoonful of sugar isn't going to help this medicine go down.<br /><br />See you tonight in Middletown!Grace Cangeminoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20985341.post-14164729001177228292009-08-26T09:11:07.763-04:002009-08-26T09:11:07.763-04:00I am sorry, but this man is a disgrace.

I was in the second group & we had about an hour to speak. I was on line & he said thats it, time for the next group. I almost lost it. He said I can leave my questions & he would answer them. I sent him questions in November of 2005, still have not gotten an answer. I gave him the questions again at a meeting in August 2007, still no answers. I left him my list but doubt I will get answers. I did ask him as I was being escorted out if he & his family would be using this insurance. He said yes everyone will be in this system. I asked why he will not listen to his constituents & would vote for this bill, he said it was close in votes for and against. The meeting last night was about 95% against, 5% for. When he said he trys to read the bills before he votes on them, I wanted to pull what little hair I have left on my head out. I hope this person is voted out in 2010.

He made no mention of discrimination of services to men but mentioned discriminstion toward women, he ignores that women cost more to insure and instead has has the liberal view that this should bed paid by male subscribers; in other words women can't pay their share because it's discriminator but men can pay women's share of needing more medical treatment. It's a PC and political bias we now will face in healthcare like we do in our marriages, schools, jobs, and the rest of our social lives.<br />Pallone made no mention of why the government needs to have healthcare czars and a big audit department and I asked him, "why can't you just leave this big government out of this and pay the medical bills, he gave no answer to my question, smiled and talked how health reform is needed.frankcotthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05412918479213112958noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20985341.post-34465384702349839032009-08-26T00:19:07.286-04:002009-08-26T00:19:07.286-04:00I tried to get in the meeting but by the time I ar...I tried to get in the meeting but by the time I arrived, you would have to park your car 2 miles away. The bottom line is correct; Pallone does not give a damn about what the people he supposedly represents actually want. You know he's a "LAWYER" and much smarter than the rest of us working stiffs.<br /> I have written this guy letters, sent email, faxed and called many times over the years. I always get a letter back that thanks me for my comments but tells me I am wrong about the issue with some crappy talking points. I remember when he would not support the bill to fund our troops in Iraq, but now spends trillions like small change. He fully supports all of the most damaging aspects of the Obama agenda. He is a statist that is hell bent on killing the private sector by regulating it into oblivion.<br /> We really need to wake up and start a grass roots campaign to get rid of Pallone and his buddy Holt in the next congressional election, along with the fake republicans like LoBiando and Smith who voted for the Cap and Tax bill.<br /> I know Pallone has been there for years, but if just 10% of the people at the town halls would really get out the vote against him we could get him defeated. Pallone is toxic to the continued survival of our great republic.<br /> I didn't put on a uniform and serve my country so jerks like Pallone could wreck it. I am going to walk the streets of my town for anyone who runs against him.Proud Veterannoreply@blogger.com
