Gentlemen:

Regarding the healthcare bill(s)... Please vote against any public option in any form regardless of its name. Government has no business getting involved in the healthcare issues of the American citizens. It does not belong in the insurance industry either.

At this time it appears that many members of Congress are attempting to distract the American public with other unimportant issues so a healthcare bill can be passed. This is wrong, unprofessional and unethical behavior.

I vote for members of Congress based on their ability to use common sense. Make sure that your ability shows in your vote(s).
