GOP Congressmen censored by Dems over chart
We read:
"House Republicans suggested Thursday that Speaker Nancy Pelosi is standing in the way of Republicans sending to constituents a chart that is in the official record of the House Ways and Means Committee. The chart, recently submitted for the record during a Ways and Means hearing on the Democrats' health care reform bill, shows the Republican interpretation of the Democrats' proposed legislation.
The Franking Commission, which is responsible for determining which mailings can be paid for with the congressional frank, or stamp, deemed the mailing unacceptable.
Republican members are scratching their heads at the ruling. The chart is "part of the official record and now we're told it can't be communicated," said Republican Rep. Dan Lungren of California.
He suggested that the decision to prevent the publication of the chart came from someone higher than the House mail office, perhaps even as high as the speaker's office.
A spokesman for the House Administration Committee, which has oversight of the House Franking Commission, did not respond to the accusation against Pelosi, but said, "There are ongoing discussions to try and resolve the issue in good faith."
The author of the chart, Rep. Kevin Brady of Texas, alleged that Democrats are afraid of the purported visual representation of their reform plan. "This is the most outrageous example of censorship I have seen in Congress," he said.

Leftism NEEDS secrecy -- because their motivations are not what they claim

One of the reason Republicans have been swept from power is their weak response to anything done or said by Demoncrats, as in this case. You don't have to be a genius to see where this order came from, especially since it's well-known that the radical leftists in the House won't even go to pee without Speaker Botox's ok.
It should come as no surprise to those who pay attention, that Queen Botox sees herself as the true ruler of America, with president Obummer simply serving as a tool to push her radical Leftist agenda forward.
The next time you see her speak in public, watch her face, her eyes, and ask yourself if you've ever seen anyone that close to a total mental meltdown. And yet, she is in control of how future generations of Americans will live their lives. How scary is that! If Americans hadn't become a nation of weak, mindless, gullible fools, she and her fellows would all be hanging from a large tree in front of the Capital.
The troubling thing about this is not only the ruling, but not knowing who made the ruling.
Once again, the "most ethical Congress ever" doesn't live up to its name.
If you are going to make a decision that stops Congressmen from legally communicating with their constituants, you'd better step up to the plate and say your name and reason loud and clear.
Is there a link to this chart on the internet somewhere? One way around the problem would be, in place of the chart, "What Pelosi doesn't want you to see", along with the URL to the chart, and frank that instead.
Here is the Chart
Jut click on the small chart and the full sized chart comes up.

This chart was published in newspapers weeks ago.

President Yomama's desperate attempt to shove socialized medicine down our throats is such an obvious scam, that even most Dumbocrats are running away from it, save for a few of the most radical, Leftist, loonies, like Queen Polosi, and Henry (Pig-snout) Waxman.
But there's another reason they're trying to sell this crap to the people, one that the MSM is (of course) not talking about. This so-called health care "reform" is the brain-child of Teddy (the lady killer) Kennedy. He's been trying to push this on us for decades, and since he's got maybe a few months to live, his leftist friends in congress see this as a testimonial to him for spending 40 years doing his best to destroy this country.
