A Job Well Done, Senator George LeMieux

I have been very pleased with your representation of Florida. Some would have just put in the time and not truly tried to represent us. You are working hard to provide Floridian the best representation you can.

I support your SJ Resolution 22. I fear it will be ignored in the current Congress although it would be interesting to see who would vote against it. Could Congressmen and women that support this Constitutional amendment encourage their state legislatures to pass this amendment? A Constitutional Convention can also be called by two-thirds of the states.

Senator Bill Nelson: "Special" Perks for Florida

You missed the point of my correspondence concerning the special benefits that Florida would receive in the Senate’s proposed health care bill. I knew that the Medicare Advantage exception that Florida would receive would apply throughout the entire state. I thought it would be grandfathered in. What I objected to was that other states – states which would not be allowed to retain Medicare Advantage – would be forced to pay for our Medicare Advantage. I do not want to profit at the expense of others. It is not right or fair. You sought this special exception for Florida. Do you think it is right or fair? If you do, you would be wise to engage in some self-examination.

Please Represent Floridians

To Senator Bill Nelson:

You have to know that the majority of Floridians oppose this health care bill. They have told you this, time after time. What must we do to get you to listen? You have to know this bill would adversely effect the quality and availability of health care for Floridians. Yet you seem bound and determined to support the party line and vote for this BAD health care bill. You were elected to represent Florida - not the Democratic party. You ran as a moderate, but you vote as a liberal. We must judge you by your actions, not your words. I, for one, am not pleased.

Is This Why You Have No Town Halls?

Sent to Senator Bill Nelson

You recently stated that you supported the public option. Could you not have stood up this summer and looked your constituents in the eye and stated and defended your ideas? Good ideas, if they are good, will stand on their own merit. Could you not have then listened to and addressed the opinions and concerns of your constituents? Someone who is willing to face a dangerous journey into space should be willing to face the people they represent. I am really disappointed in you.

Signed,
