Dear Senator,
We are in a vicious cycle; Congress creates a huge, government takeover, boondoggle, Health Care Reform Bill that will cost trillions. The people speak, and the bill is defeated. Speaker Pelosi and Majority Leader Reid go back to the drawing board, behind closed doors. In the process, they completely shut out the loyal opposition
They labor mightily and bring forth a new bill which is basically a regurgitation of the bill that was already defeated, only worse. Oh, to be sure, there will be slight changes to convince holdouts to vote “yea” this time; changes that they will reverse in reconciliation. There will also be some bribes, a whole lot of strong arm tactics for the more recalcitrant, as well as some obvious financial accounting tricks to make the bill seem “deficit neutral”. These tricks would be laughable if the bill weren’t so dangerous.
All of the proposed bills will increase the cost of health insurance, and none of them will cover all of the uninsured so why would you vote for them? Any number of free market solutions have been proposed, which will lower the costs of Health care. Free market solutions which do exist, such as direct primary care and Health Savings Accounts, will be wiped out. In addition, we can cover those who cannot afford health insurance without spending trillions.
Given the above, the American people know that the only reasons for all these colossal bills are to move yet more control to the Executive Branch, to take away more of our personal liberties, and to further bankrupt the United States. All of them will necessitate crushing taxes on the middle class, especially the health care bills.
It does not matter what is in the Senate bill, it is merely a Trojan horse for the same old agenda. If passed, it will be combined with the House bill, all objectionable measures will be back, and the Government will have taken over the entire Health Care Industry. If the vote is allowed to proceed, this takeover will be passed with only 51 votes. That would be unforgivable!
We will either actively support, or actively campaign against every elected official, wherever they are, who facilitates the current bill in any way.
Vote against the motion to proceed; vote against cloture. The Nation is watching. Your constituents are watching.

LETTER TO SENATOR LINDSEY GRAHAM REF. ENERGY BILL
Dear Senator Graham:
We support alternative fuels, wind, and solar energy. We also support more nuclear plants, clean coal technology, and offshore drilling (because if we do not drill for this oil, Russia, China, Cuba and etc. will, from just outside of the International Line). Their technology is not environmentally safe. Our technology is state of the art environmentally safe, as the lack of spills after Katrina, Ike and other major hurricanes attest.
We have studied the "global warming problem", and found that most noted Scientists (Those that are not dependent on the US or European governments for funds) agree that the planet is currently in a cooling mode. They also agree that high levels of carbon in the atmosphere follow a warming period, they do not cause it, and that man’s contribution to atmospheric carbon levels is negligible. Over the summer, approximately 30,000 scientists signed a petition disputing the claim that global warming is an anthropogenic phenomenon. http://www.newsmax.com/newsfront/al_gore_global_warming/2008/05/19/97307.html
The evidence is that high sunspot activity in the sun has the closest relationship to intermittent warming periods on the earth. There is also a new book called “The Chilling Stars” by Henrik Svensmark and Nigel Calder that supports the theory that sub-atomic particles from exploded stars have more effect on the climate than manmade CO2.
However, even if we believed the extravagant claims of Al Gore, taxing carbon emissions and creating “carbon credits” will do nothing to curb carbon emissions. The carbon credits will likely become a new security that financial wonder boys will trade, ultimately creating yet another bubble.
We understand your reasoning that, if legislation is not created, the fallback will be the E.P.A., who will create, supposedly, even more onerous regulations. However, any bill that passes the Senate will be unrecognizable after Speaker Pelosi and Majority Leader Reid have “reconciled” it with the House version. It will have all the worst provisions of HR 2454, will further the complete takeover of the U.S. economy by the current administration, and will have crippling taxes for the Middle Class. We know this because it has become a consistent pattern.
If you pass an energy bill in the Senate, you will open the door to the above. Whatever the E.P.A. does can be undone. When Conservatives control the Congress and Senate you can address the other issues in your op-ed piece in the New York Times. http://www.nytimes.com/2009/10/11/opinion/11kerrygraham.html
For now, Vote “NO” to any global warming bill; for God’s sake, don’t create one!
