When was there a vote to abolish the immoral, unconstitutional medicare?
What makes the opposition to stealing from some people and making health care more expensive .... an 'extremist' position?

An unconscious people, an indoctrinated people, a people fed only on partisan information and opinions that confirm their own bias, a people made morbidly obese in mind and spirit by the junk food of propaganda, is less inclined to put up a fight, to ask questions and be skeptical. That kind of orthodoxy can kill a democracy or worse. -- Bill Moyers

Hold these two tea party extremists accountable I

From CREDO SuperPAC
We have an opportunity to Take Down these two Tea Party extremists.
Chip in now to hold Lungren, Fitzpatrick and all of the Tea Party Ten
accountable.
We're taking down Dan Lungren and Mike Fitzpatrick.
Dear Friend,
Special delivery for Rep. Dan Lungren and Rep. Mike Fitzpatrick: You're fired.
Both of these Tea Party extremists voted to defund Planned Parenthood
and abolish Medicare. But that's just the beginning. Lungren is
California's Rick Santorum, whose three decades of extremism include
leading attacks on women and marriage equality. Fitzpatrick backs
everything from the Tea Party's radical attacks to their paranoid
conspiracy theories.1
That's why they'll be joining the six other dubious extremists in the
Tea Party Ten. And why a few CREDO activists just dropped off giant
pink slips at their office to put them on notice: We're going to take
them down.2
We need your help to do it. Chip in $5 to Take Down Tea Party
extremists Dan Lungren and Mike Fitzpatrick.

Newly drawn Congressional boundaries in these two districts mean there
is a real opportunity for grassroots activism to stand up to shady
SuperPAC money in 2012, and defeat these radical extremists. And the
activists who dropped off the pink slips can't wait to get started.
We've already got 22 paid organizers in eight Congressional districts
around the country,3 finding and opening field offices and organizing
district events. And we're committed to defeating Lungren and
Fitzpatrick, along with Joe Walsh, Chip Cravaack, Steve King, Frank
Guinta, Dean Duffy and Allen West.
But to do it, we need to double the number of organizers in the field
in the coming weeks.
If everyone reading this chipped in $5, we'd have the funds we need to
pay all our field organizers through November.
We're building a volunteer army to tell the truth abut Fitzpatrick and
Lungren: They are working for radical interests and themselves, not
the people in their districts.
When the Obama Administration refused to defend the Defense of
Marriage Act, Dan Lungren was eager to volunteer $1.5 million of your
tax payer dollars to defend it. And after Congress passed laws to cut
down on lobbyist giveaways to lawmakers, Lungren still found a way to
spend four days lounging around a Hawaiian resort thanks to his
lobbyist buddies.4
Mike Fitzpatrick started off his Congressional term with the "ultimate
embarrassment"5 missing his swearing in to attend a fundraiser. Since
then, he's repeatedly thrown his own constituents under the bus —
slashing local block grants in his district and voting to abolish
preventative Medicare benefits for 110,000 seniors he represents —
while voting four times against bill that would have cracked down on
Big Oil's price gouging.
They've got to go. Chip in $5 to defeat them now:

It's not just that guys like Fitzpatrick and Lungren serve themselves
and extreme interests above all else: Their decisions have real
consequences for real people.
Whether it's the life of the woman who is denied necessary health
services, or the CREDO activist who told Dan Lungren's District
Director "tell him, if he cares, there's many people like me, that if
we lose our social security, we lose our houses."
That's why we need to Take Down the Tea Party Ten. Thanks for your support.
