Republican Party of Minnesota Blasts Walz’s Vote for Government Run Health Care
St. Paul- Republican of Minnesota Chairman Tony Sutton tonight issued the following statement after Tim Walz voted for a government takeover of the health care system.
“With his vote for a massive $1.2 trillion government takeover of health care that would raise taxes, slash Medicare and explode the deficit, the myth of the moderate Tim Walz is shattered forever. With national unemployment now exceeding ten percent and our economy continuing to struggle, Walz has only added insult to injury for the small businesses, families and seniors of southern Minnesota he has just saddled with billions in new taxes. Instead of emulating the kind of world class treatment offered by the Mayo Clinic, Walz has backed an irresponsible, partisan bill which puts government bureaucrats between patients and their doctors. In 2010, the people of southern Minnesota will remember Tim Walz’s betrayal when they go to the ballot box by voting for a new leader who won’t be a rubber stamp for whatever Nancy Pelosi demands.”

Massive,takeover, slash, explode, myth, shattered, struggle, insult, saddled, billions, irresponsible, partisan, betrayal…
I’m surprised that Tony could find a place for all of these words in a mere 4 sentences.
Oh wait, that’s Tony’s pathetic specialty… scorched earth policy whenever a Democrat votes in the best interest of the American people.
I forgot what channel I was watching…
Nevermind!

How quickly some forget thet Tim Walz garnered over 60% of the total vote in the 1st CD over a Health Care expert who all he could answer, “Drill here, Drill Now!”
Tim Walz is following through on what he campaigned on in 2008 that he was going to support Health Care reform. The voters apporved.
Nor is the Federal Government going to take over the Health Care system as in England. Not going to happen! The voters in the 1st know that too.

Has anybody heard who the GOP will be running against Congressman Walz in 2010?
I hope it’s a conservative teabagger.
