My hubby and I have joined Congressman Fleming in supporting his House Resolution 615 by signing the petition at his website.

Thank you, Congressman Fleming!

I can barely feed my family on $200,000 a year. What a prick.

Wow I read some the posted comments here and did anyone actually hear what he said finally a rebulican talking some sense. Leading by example the key words people

I like what's said here. But, they need to remember, WE NEED HEALTHCARE REFORM!!! I'm sick of the banks and ins. co.'s having free reign to screw Americans out of their hard earned money. We pay for membership, so we can pay a deductible, so we can still pay the dr's, and they can tell us what Dr we can see, what meds we can take, whether we need an MRI.... I thought robbery was illegal! This from one w/ a rare illness and would literally die w/out his meds.

Lobbyists are legal?!!!

You guys tried to STOP the addition of a public option (another great choice in health insurance) so your private HC monopolies and cartels all around the country could keep doing the bullshit they've been doing for decades and not have any REAL competition.  Nice job, Republicans.

You talk about death panels. THE REAL DEATH PANELS ARE THE INSURANCE COMPANIES!

[whoo689]

What a big-gov't douchebag this guy is! So... if a Congressman voted to INCREASE choice in the insurance market, his choices should be RESTRICTED to only that plan??? HOW DOES THAT MAKE ANY SENSE? And you Republicans claim you're all about choice and 'freedom'. Please...

John Fleming, you're fired.

[whoo689]

At best, it was a GOV'T-RUN INSURANCE COMPANY like any other healthcare insurer! The fact that it would've been gov't-run doesn't fucking matter. Who cares. Wouldn't make much diff.

[whoo689]

Guys like Fleming are a disgrace to this country. We could've had a great public option! BUT NOOO... he and his like-minded Congressmen and teabagger types just HAD to ruin it with all sorts of lies, propaganda and interrupting town halls with misinformed screaming, yelling, etc. You guys sicken me. Even the most modest of proposals to increase coverage can't get through because you assume or mischaracterize it as a "government-run healthcare plan." IT WAS NOT!

@dgs2091 Poor ignorant misguided ill-informed liberal. I'm afraid the trustees of both Social Security and Medicare disagree with you.

See comments for balldez instead of commenting directly. It's safer that way.
