Full disclaimer: I voted for Obama. I wanted a change from apparent direction this country was heading in the previous administration. And I believed in Obama\u2019s campaign ideas of a better America.<\/p>\n
But I also think it will be a tremendous mistake if the healthcare bill, as it is currently written, passes into law. I think it has become far too distorted and amended from its\u2019 original version to be a viable healthcare option for this country.<\/p>\n
I would like your help in changing the healthcare bill before it is too late.<\/p>\n
I just registered stopthisbill.org<\/a> .net and .com. and stopthatbill.org, .net and .com to try and make a difference.<\/p>\n This new website<\/a> I created has a simple initial petition<\/a>. I want the health care reform bill, as it is written now, stopped and re-considered.<\/p>\n My hope is that the initial petition<\/a>, after reaching a few thousand names, will attract enough legislative attention to stop the existing health care bill before it is enacted into law.<\/p>\n I also added a simple discussion forum<\/a> on this website in the hopes that a second petition can be created through community forums. A second petition, authored by the internet community, that specifically outlines what should be in the healthcare plan and what should not be.<\/p>\n I think there\u2019s a great collective intelligence online, and I would very much appreciate any help in signing the initial petition<\/a>, and creating a second directive-based petition<\/a>.<\/p>\n Hopefully this little project will draw some attention in a positive way to get the idea of healthcare back on track.<\/p>\n For now, I’ve added a page-peel effect in the upper right corner of this website to push some traffic to stopthisbill.org. And I’m going to cross-post this announcement on some other blogs I’m a member of tonight and tomorrow.<\/p>\n Please feel free to tell me what you think about this idea either here or on the stopthisbill.org website or emailing me at admin(at)stopthisbill.org.<\/p>\n We now return you to the personal website already in progress…<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Full disclaimer: I voted for Obama.
