Grassley Asks Donors to Help Him Defeat Health Care Reform
The Washington Post
Chuck Grassley is facing a potentially difficult primary challenge in 2010. As such, he's been working hard to cover his right flank. That would all be fine except for one thing: As ranking member of the Finance Committee, Grassley is responsible for developing a workable compromise on health-care reform. But as this fundraising letter (pdf) shows, Grassley is running against health-care reform back in Iowa. Here's how the missive begins:
And ask your immediate support in helping me defeat “Obama-care.”
I'm sure you've been following this issue closely. If the legislation sponsored by Speaker Nancy Pelosi in the House of Representatives and Chairman Ted Kennedy in the Senate is passed it would be a pathway to a government takeover of the health care svstem. lt would turn over control of your health care decisions to a federal bureaucrat … and take it away from you and your personal physician.
It would mean government rationing in the name of cost controls.

It will probably have no effect whatsoever to write Grassley, but if you would like to let the Senator know you are a constituent and you are FOR health care reform, click here:
