I just have to say this

[Tanuki]

7. I called Alexander's Washington office yesterday and gave the hapless staffer a piece of my mind,

even though I knew full well that Lamar was one of the 13 miscreants secreted in a locked room fucking up healthcare for millions and millions of my fellow Americans and that there is no way he will vote against his own handiwork. I meant to state a brief, to-the-point message and get off the phone, but I got cranked up and refused to let myself be pacified by the practiced, bullshit responses, so the conversation went on for a while. I didn't feel better after venting, but I still felt it was important to send a strong message from a health care provider/voter/consumer of health care services. And what you did was awesome...you have given some stranger a way to get around safely in the world! We are all in this together.
