Paid for by Wiggans for...Senate???

Former California Republican turned Kansas Democrat Tom Wiggans got off to a stumbling start earlier this week when he announced his bid to be the next Kansas Governor. When thanking folks for signing up to receive emails from his campaign, the thank you read it was "Paid for by Wiggans for Senate". For Senate???? Unreliable and unprofessional.

House Republican Whip Eric Cantor's office produced this video spotlighting House Republican women on health care in America. Women make 79% of health care decisions for their children and spend two of every three health care dollars for their families. There are three videos in the following series. Watch all three here:

Jenkins Joins GOP Women Healthcare Conference Call

(From Lonely Conservative)

I sat in on a conference call with Rep. Cathy McMorris Rodgers (WA), Rep. Lynn Jenkins (KS), Rep. Michele Bachmann (MN) and Rep. Cynthia Lummis (WY). Also on hand were Terry Neise, a small business consultant from Oklahoma; Sandy Applet, a small business CPA; and Kelly Brewer, a hospital administrator.

Michele Bachmann was encouraged by how many Americans showed up today at the Capitol. The crowd was estimated at ten to fifteen thousand, which is pretty amazing on such short notice. Bachmann said all the power goes to the American people. She doesn’t know if Speaker Pelosi has the votes, and passage of the bill is not inevititable. She stressed that we need to continue contacting our representatives – call them, email them or show up at your district office.

Rep. Lynn Jenkins told us many of the women in the conference are mothers in the “sandwich generation” – taking care of children at home while worrying about aging parents. They understand the frustrations of American women.They’re displeased with the Pelosi plan and opposed to any government bureaucrat standing between patients and physicians.

Rep. Cynthia Lummis reiterated that the Democrats’ bill will cost taxpayers billions, as well as the billions in unfunded mandates forced onto the states. She said the Democrats’ long term goal is government run health care for all of us; and pointed out that after 2013 Americans will no longer be able to purchase individual insurance plans. Lummis told us the bill weighs over 20 pounds, and contrasted it with the constitution. She said the constitution frees up our rights and shackles the government. The Pelosi bill does just the opposite, it frees up the government and shackles the individual.

Ms. Neise and Ms. Applet talked about the devasting impact this bill will have on small businesses. The Congresswomen said they’re proud of the alternative approach offered by House republicans.

Clyde from Patriot Room also participated in the call and posted the full audio.
