Americans across the nation demonstrated in favor of guaranteed healthcare and in protest of AHIP — America’s Health Insurance Plans — the insurance industry lobbyists who profit from our pain and folks in Louisville joined in the protest. I put together the video below to give you a flavor of the protest.
It’s sad that John McCain and Senator Mitch McConnell are so out of touch with the needs of the people they are supposed to be representing. It seems that John McCain and Senator Mitch McConnell find it easer to represent the over paid healthcare CEO’s than the folks who were out on the streets protesting today.

National Day of Protest Against Health Insurance Corporations: June 19th!

Jim Pence June 16th, 2008

Americans across the nation will demonstrate in favor of guaranteed healthcare and in protest of AHIP — America’s Health Insurance Plans — the insurance industry lobbyists who profit from our pain. Their annual convention will be met by thousands of protestors onsite in San Francisco and simultaneously in cities across the nation. PLEASE JOIN US In Louisville, Kentucky Humana building, 5th and Main St. Time: 11:30 am – 12:30 pm.
I plan to be there with a video camera, weather permitting, so you can tell the overpaid Healthcare CEO’s and the politicians that kiss their ass what you think.
Politicians that have enough guts to show up and support the protesters are welcome, but I don’t expect to see Senator Mitch McConnell Or Congressman Ed. Whitfield at the event, rumor has it they will be in San Francisco.
