Just how many campaign promises did Congressman elect Bill Owens break in his first day?
So far he has broken 4 of his campaign promises, within the first day! Read the whole thing, it’s very interesting.
excerpt…
Owens indicated in a press release released shortly afterwards that he was now in favor of the the "Affordable Healthcare for America Act" bill in direct contrast to his earlier position during the election campaign.
According to Politico.com, Mr. Owens assured voters that he felt the public option had no place in the health care reform bill. Contrary to that position, Mr. Owens now indicates that he intends to vote in favor of the bill even though it now contains a public option.
Both FactCheck.org and the Congressional Budget Office agree that HR 3962 contains potentially hundreds of billions of dollars in planned cuts to Medicare, yet Mr. Owens indicates that he supports this legislation and says that it does not cut Medicare benefits. Either Mr. Owens has been snowed or the public is about to be

The mixed-up mess that was the 23rd Congressional District Special Election was a close race between Democrat Bill Owens and Conservative Doug Hoffman. Many feel that it was unlikely Mr. Owens would have won those crucial few thousand votes if the voting public was aware of his intent with regard to the Health Care bill. The majority of residents in this district do not support the Health Reform bill as it is now written and many feel like they’ve become victims of a fraud perpetrated by their chosen candidate.

Are they ALL lying scumbags?
Vivi: How true but sad. Even when the facts slap them in the face, the liberals just cannot handle it…to them there is no absolute truth, black is white and up is down…it all depends on how you look at it…disgusting
Enough to get him kicked out of office!

Thanks for pulling this scam together. Unfortunately and as you can see, the truth must be attacked by the dem faithful.

Remember the goal. Money, power, and control.
With the leftists, of either party, the ends justify the means.
What the constituents want is irrelevant. Most, it would seem, can’t even spell honor, much less know what it means.
