Senator Tim Johnson of SD

 Here's my email to Senator Tim Johnson:

"I just talked to your Sioux Falls office about the state of SD dropping my college kid's health insurance. You had sold me on the health care bill, in part, because of the provision about covering our older children. Now I find out it won't be in effect for five years. I feel ripped off and lied to. I'll remember this when I vote."

Of course I don't believe he actually reads constituent email, none of our politicians do.  In poor Tim's case, I doubt that he can understand the content of emails or the legislation his staffers vote on. But then he's not the only brain damaged person sitting in our senate.

"Oh we're going to be collecting money for five years so we can pay for the bill", the young man told me on the phone when I called Tim's office.

Do these idiots really believe that the US government is going to collect money for five years and put it in a sack? Do they really expect us to believe that any funds collected to "pay for health care 'reform'"will be set aside and not gobbled up by another of their vote buying projects? Does the bill they passed even establish such a piggy bank? Will this money earn interest? Will the interest it earns be higher than the interest we pay on the national debt? Does this make ANY sense?

Do I personally feel lied to?

You betcha!
