POLITICO, 3/19/2010 by Rep. Michele Bachmann (R-WI) and Rep. Steve King (R-IA) - "Liberals have long dreamed of putting the government in charge of America’s health insurance industry. Each time they tried, the American people have stood up and rejected a government takeover of health care. ∴ This is different.

Obamacare is just the first step down this road. ∴ As you read this, the fate of Obamacare hangs in the balance. We must do all we can to kill this bill in the next two days. ∴ Keep those calls to Congress coming, and do all you can to stop this monstrosity. The future of America depends on what we can do in the next 48 hours to kill this bill."
