December 11, 2009 Remember when Senator Mitch McConnell stood on the Senate floor December 5, 2009 and had this and this to say about the Health Care Bill " I'm sure there are people in Kentucky for it, I have not met one.""There must be a doctor in Kentucky for this,I have not heard from one." Today Dr. Eric Johnson and Wanda Mitchell-Smith went to Senator Mitch McConnell's office, see photos, in Louisville, Kentucky and presented his staff with a petition with the names of 1,000-plus Kentuckians. The petition, signed by more than 1,000 Kentuckians states “Hey Mitch McConnell, I'm from Kentucky and I support health reform that gives us quality, affordable health care with the choice of a public health insurance option.”
I asked Dr. Eric Johnson and Wanda Mitchell-Smith if I could go with them to present the petition, I wanted a photo of the petition being handed over, and they told me only two people at a time could go up to Senator Mitch McConnell's office. I later verified this, by phone, with a lady by the name of Audrey, in the senators office. Since I wouldn't be able to go with Dr. Eric Johnson and Wanda Mitchell-Smith, I gave my iPhone to Wanda Mitchell-Smith and asked her to shoot video of the petition transaction. The guard stopped her and said no photos or videos! See video clip below.
I simply couldn't believe what had happened and kept asking myself is this America? How is it that the Senator's office, in Jefferson County, Kentucky will allow just 2 people in at time. There are 713,877 people in Jefferson County, Kentucky! What kind of deal is this? Democracy? Really?
