What would "move" Feinstein?

June 29, 2009, 10:47AM


Yesterday's WaPo ran an article talking about the health care activists who are targeting Democrats in Congress and calling them out for taking money from the Industry and working against Obama. Dianne Feinstein had a quote that really ticked me off:

"I do not think this is helpful. It doesn't move me one whit," she said. "They are spending a lot of money on something that is not productive."

What!?! So, I guess the big question is, if criticism by her constituents doesn't move her, WHAT DOES?
Oh, yeah. That's right. Insurance money.
I just want to take this opportunity to thank the individuals and groups who are calling shenanigans on members of Congress for failing to remember who they work for. But the larger, more important question is, how do we get our elected representatives to REPRESENT US? Really, this shouldn't be so hard...

I'll tell ya what she cares about besides money. She cares about her seat on the intelligence committee.

How do we go about getting her removed?
