Are you SC folks blasting the hell out of DeMint over his "Waterloo" remark?
Edited on Tue Jul-21-09 02:47 PM by RBInMaine
This guy should have you folks pissed as all living hell. Where is your show of outrage? I have written to him myself. SEE BELOW. But, he won't listen to me. He may to you. In fact, progressive organizations in red states should be showcasing "conservatives" who want healthcare in ads in all media, and they should be organized to call the hell out of the RePUKES from SC. Put red voters who want healthcare right in front of the cameras !


Dear Senator DeMint,

That you would make such a statement to some of your sympathizers as “If we defeat Obama on healthcare, it will be his Waterloo. It will break him.” shows exactly where your interests are: with the greedy insurance companies and not with the American people. You and most Republicans in Congress are obviously more interested in helping the insurance industry and trying to score political points than helping Americans and fixing our terrible healthcare financing system. (We have very good healthcare providers, but yes, a terrible healthcare financing system. The private insurance company system is broken and awful.)

Senator DeMint, you should be ashamed !

Very Sincerely,


PS: If Republicans block healthcare reform AGAIN in this country, make no mistake, it will be YOUR party’s “Waterloo.”

2. I've been blasting hell out of DeMint
since he was elected. He has always been an intolerable shithead. He has the same libertarian philosophy as Sanford. It has just not been on display for all until now.

Lindsey Graham is positively liberal in comparison and I loathe him.

3. SC responding to Sen. DeMint
Thanks for the reminder on DeMint. I took the liberty to use your letter, with a few changes to fit my communication form, and hope you won't mind. Now a South Carolinian has told him!

I've always felt nothing but alienation from Sen. DeMint as he seems like someone who ought not to be there in the first place. He uses everything he can think of to get his name in the national media. I find him disgusting on every level.

All of my communication has been with Sen. Graham and it has been an ugly battle throughout the Iraq war. To show you how out of touch these offices are, with all the obvious anti-Graham letters I've sent, they send me Republican supporter information! I toss it in the trash on the way back in from the mailbox.
