Typical-Democrats block Republicans from mailing constituents – Update-Also dictating language GOP can use to describe ObummerCare

You have to give it to the democrats – they sure do have a lot of nerve. Imagine if the republicans did this when they held the majority!

Democrats are preventing Republican House Members from sending their constituents a mailing that is critical of the majority’s health care reform plan, blocking the mailing by alleging that it is inaccurate.

House Republicans are crying foul and claiming that the Democrats are using their majority to prevent GOP Members from communicating with their constituents.

The dispute centers on a chart (view PDF) created by Rep. Kevin Brady (R-Texas) and Republican staff of the Joint Economic Committee to illustrate the organization of the Democratic health care plan.

At first glance, Brady’s chart resembles a board game: a colorful collection of shapes and images with a web of lines connecting them.

But a closer look at the image reveals a complicated menagerie of government offices and programs that Republicans say will be created if the leading Democratic health care plan becomes law.

Heaven forbid the American people find out that Obummercare will be anything but efficient! I only wish I lived in one of their districts so I could get a copy. My kids and I could play the Game of Life  on the brightly colored chart.  Liberal should love how ”fair” it would be – a game nobody wins!

Update: Not only are they blocking the GOP from sending out the chart of their dreadful health plans, they are dictating how the GOP can describe their dreadful health plans.

Rep. John Carter (R-Texas), the secretary of the House Republican Conference and a former District Court Judge, is having his messages to constituents censored by Democrats on the Franking Commission. Republicans are no longer allowed to use the words “government run health care” in the communications to their constituents.

Republicans were told to use the term “public option.” Well, what the heck is a public option if not government run healthcare?
