    Michael Bennet: I'll Lose My Seat To Support Health Care

     

    Written by Sam Stein - Michael Bennet: I'll Lose My Seat To Support Health Care.

     

    ***Sen. Michael Bennet (D-Colo.), a freshman Senator who is fighting to hold his seat in 2010, said he would support health care reform even if it cost him his job.

     

    ***Appearing on CNN's "State of the Union," the Colorado Democrat was asked whether he would vote in favor of the legislation even if "every piece of evidence tells you, if you support that bill you will lose your job." "Yes," Bennet replied, succinctly.

     

    ***Appointed to the seat after President Obama tapped former Colorado Sen. Ken Salazar (D) to be his Secretary of the Interior, Bennet may have a tricky reelection race. He faces a challenge from the progressive wing of his own party for the nomination, even though his state has only recently trended Democratic

     

    . ***Bennet's vote on health care was at one point in time uncertain. But that was months ago. Now the politics seem to dictate that championing reform is smarter than attacking it

    MATTHEW 7:19

     

    Don't store up treasures here on earth,where moths eat them and rust destroys them, and where thieves break in and steal. Store your treasures in heaven, where moths and rust cannot destroy, and thieves do not break in and steal. Wherever your treasure is, there the desires of your heart will also be.

     

    Luke 9:25 "For What Shall It Profit A Man, If He Shall Gain The Whole World, And Lose His Own Soul? Or What Shall A Man Give In Exchange For His Soul?"

     

    Thanks for taking a stand.
