Senator Mary Landrieu (D-LA) told a Chamber of Commerce crowd Wednesday she would likely oppose any government insurance option in health care reform and lobby against a proposed energy tax known as Cap and Trade.

Many Democrats are beginning to understand that the Obama health care plan is not only opposed by their constituents, but will also bankrupt the country. Landrieu stated:

“I’d like to cover everyone — that would be the moral thing to do — but it would be immoral to bankrupt the country while doing so,” Landrieu said

Landrieu understands that a health care system that covers everyone is worthless if people cannot live their lives in fear of losing everything.

I hope Sen. Landrieu is telling the truth. Her constituents are watching her. We will be watching her and other members of congress.  All to often they say one thing and find a way to vote for another.  We have congress reps like Eric Massa who will say one thing in front of his constituents and when in private with a group of super liberals will say things like “I will vote against the interests of my constituents“. We must keep after these politicians to insure they do not head fake us. Right now Liberals are using the death of Ted Kennedy as a reason to promote ObamaCare. Politicians should vote based on the interests of their constituents not a passing sympathy of a colleagues death.
