OUR FIRST BETH COULSON POST

Here in Illinois, we have a pristine example of RINOism in the person of Beth "Scozzafava" Coulson. Currently the state senator in the 10th District, Beth is trying to win the nomination to replace Mark Kirk as he runs for senate.

Now, Beth loves unions...SEIU is one of her biggest supporters...but she also is a huge fan of government run health care.

In fact, back in 2004, she voted PRESENT on HB 2268 - aka, the Health Care Justice Act.

Among other things, the Bill provided, "that the State of Illinois shall implement a health care plan that provides access to a full range of preventive, acute, and long-term health services."

Oh, and it also would have cost the taxpayers of Illinois anywhere from $2.6 - $4 billion (with a B) a year...but who's counting?

But that's not all!

Funny little coincidence...turns out, this was the same Bill pushed by then IL. State Senator, Barack Obama.

So what, you ask?

Well, just ask yourself this: If Beth Coulson didn't oppose Barack Obama's health care plans then, why would she oppose them now?

Is it really worth taking that risk next November?

A real conservative would fight to stop the government takeover of health care, not vote "PRESENT."

Beth "Scozzafava" Coulson...Congrats on being the inaugural subject of the RINO REPORT.

  1. You're going to attack someone because they voted PRESENT on a bill that the Dems would have attacked her on for voting NO and she didn't agree with to vote YES? This is really a lame post and you should be ashamed to even type this drivel out. Stop listening to Bob Dold and don't drink the Kool-Aid.
