    Pritzker/Soros' MoveOn.org Working to Subvert Democracy

    MoveOn.org is starting a campaign to "fight right wing extremists"

    MoveOn.org is heavily funded by hotel heiress Linda Ptrizker ($4 million) and George Soros ($1.4 million). These extreme left-wing liberals would like to see America destroyed.

    Here is the new http://moveon.org/

    Real Voices for ChangeRight-wing extremists are disrupting town hall meetings with attacks on President Obama's plans for health care and clean energy. But we're showing Congress that ordinary Americans continue to support his agenda for change.

    It's been an amazing 10 years, and we're stronger than ever--4.2 million members as of today. We've prepared an interactive photo timeline that captures so many of the memories we've shared together. Thanks for all you do.

    There are town halls across the country. Going to one?

    Print out a sign and read a few suggested ideas of what you can say. Here are some signs to print out and bring to a town hall:
    "Public Option = Affordable Health Care" sign
    "Public Option: Increases Choice, Reduces Cost sign
    "83% Support the Public Option" sign

    Here are a few ideas you can use to ask a question at the town hall:

    I'm here to urge you to push for passage of a health care reform plan with a real public health insurance option as soon as you head back to Washington. It's critical for controlling skyrocketing costs and guaranteeing security for all of us.

    Our health care system is broken—costs are skyrocketing and too many people can't afford coverage. The heart of President Obama's health care plan—the public health insurance option—is the key to fixing those problems.

    We need action now. The cost of inaction is too high—every day that we delay, 14,000 Americans lose their insurance1 and nearly 2,500 file for bankruptcy because of medical costs2. And costs continue to spiral out of control: average family premiums will hit $22,000 a year in the next decade.3

    With a real public option, costs will start to go down and millions of individuals, families, and small businesses will have access to high-quality, affordable health insurance. And no matter what happens to our jobs or our health, a public option will always be there for us. Will you fight to make sure a real public health insurance option is included in health care reform this year?

    As an Independent I agree that something has to be done about COSTS! Nevetheless pointing the finger at one private enterprise group--like insurers--- doesn't necessarily solve the problem. There are all sorts of reasons---some of them unavoidable--as to why med. costs have risen.
