Cap'n Traitor Mark Kirk


This is a letter from Illinois' Cap & Traitor Mark Kirk. He is running for one of the Senate seats from Illinois. He is a Liberal who is a Republican In Name Only(RINO). He is one of many who has taken our party towards defeat. He is now conveniently trying to get the Conservative vote but his hypocrisy is obvious. The sooner the RINO's leave our party the better. I really don't understand why they would want to be in a party that hold to Conservative values. In a feeble attempt to ingratiate himself with us he has written a good email that actually has important information. It's too bad that I can't vote for this POS, he actually might have made a descent Conservative.


Dear Friends,

Knowing of your continued concern for health care reform, I am writing to update you on my work in Congress to protect seniors.
On October 7, 2009, the Congressional Budget Office (CBO) released their score for the Senate Finance health care bill. CBO concluded that the legislation has a total cost of $829 billion over 10 years, imposes $424 billion in new taxes and fees over the first 10 years and has over $400 billion in Medicare cuts. Please see the list below.


MEDICARE CUTS

-$133B Medicare Advantage

-$128.8B Hospitals

-$106.3B Inpatient Prospective Payment System

-$22.5B Medicare DSH payments

-$56B Home Health

-$22.2B Medicare Commission

-$22.3B Medicare Improvement Fund

-$19.8B Medicare Part D

-$14.6B Skilled Nursing Facilities

-$23.1B Part B Schedules, Except Physician Services

-$8B CMS Innovation Center

-$11B Hospices

-$4.9B Accountable Care Organizations

-$3B Medical Imaging

-$800M Power Wheel Chairs

-$300M Comparative Effectiveness Medicare Component

-$100M Medigap


In my opinion, we should not be paying for health care on the backs of senior citizens.

Health Care Paid for on the Backs of Seniors

Sincerely,


Congressman Mark Kirk
