New Move-On Ad Hits Republican Anti-Reform Efforts
MoveOn is up with a new week-long ad in DC and on national cable hitting Republicans for attempting to kill health care reform for political game.
Perhaps just as interesting, though, is this note from the accompanying press statement.
The ad kicks off a month of field campaigning and advertising in districts and states over the August Congressional recess. MoveOn will air ads in both Republican and Democratic districts while lawmakers are home, reminding them of the urgency of addressing our nation's health care crisis and the political and economic cost of inaction. The ads will be accompanied by a month-long grassroots offensive where MoveOn members will lobby their representatives and Senators and educate their communities about the urgency of passing strong health care reform, including a real public health insurance option.
Who said anything about summer doldrums?

Not strong enough. This is a wimpy ad. They need to list how much each Congress person is taking from their corporate masters. Let the public know that their health and well-being is not worth as much as a campaign contribution from big insurance/pharma. Call it what it is...Payola from big corporations.

I might have added that while they are playing political football, they have offered nothing at all. The status quo is not sustainable.
While it might be convenient to put them in bed with lobbyists, the Democrats are not exactly innocent here either.
