The masters of information, which I call my colleagues on the other side of the aisle here, can't disagree with the fact that jobs, homes and insurance have been lost by Americans due to the failed Bush policies of trickle-down economics. I want to talk about health care. A few people came up to me during our last district work period, and said, I've lost my job. I've lost my home to foreclosure, but take care of health care. We can do it together if we stop the obstruction on the other side of the aisle. This is very important for the American people. Instead of being masters of misinformation, I think my colleagues on the other side should put aside their partisan agenda and work towards what is best for the American people.
