The President Just Vetoed Your Priorities

The President Just Vetoed Your Priorities


By True Majority

The
gap between the President's priorities and your priorities has never
been more clear. The President just decided that 3 million poor
children shouldn't receive healthcare. It's crazy. At the same time
he's asking Congress for $200 billion more to continue his war in Iraq,
he's vetoing a healthcare program for needy kids here at home that
costs just a small fraction of that.1   

But for
the first time in seven years, the President might not get his way. Now
it's up to Congress to stand up for their constituents and override the
President's veto.

     Tell your Members of Congress to stand up to the President and override his veto.

     This isn't just about the 3 million kids who desperately need this
program, this is about the direction of our country. It's time for
Congress to take a stand and send a message to this President and his
Administration that they will not continue to allow our most basic
values to be swept aside. This is the moment that we stand up and say:
“no more.” We can win this fight, but it's going to take all of us.
Start by telling your Members of Congress to override the President's
veto today.

We've also helped organize, along with our friends
at MoveOn and our new partners at USAction, emergency rallies all over
the country tomorrow. Show up and show your support, not just for
children's healthcare, but for the values that make this country great.

Let's get our priorities straight,

    The GOP Plot to Defeat Ron Paul

    NEWS ANALYSIS AND OPINION
    It is not enough that seemingly every state that can is desperately moving up primary contest dates to as close to January 1, 2008 as possible in the hopes of derailing the momentum that presidential candidate Ron Paul (R-Tex) will derive from a good New Hampshire finish. Now the GOP in many states has apparently taken to shutting down the possibility that Independents or Democrats can vote for Ron Paul in the GOP primary.
    Such contests, inviting a broad electoral spectrum, have taken place in the past without controversy or interference.
    Why now? What is the hurry? Is it all coincidence?
