MedicarePart D doughnut HOLE anyone?
i hit mine. what a wunnerful place to be.:sarcasm: so i'm outta pocket full tote on all my meds until i pay out $3450. then i go back to having my medigap insurance pick up part of the tab. when i spoke to libby, rep defazio's aide here in eugene, she said that to her knowledge other reps weren't getting a lot of complaints from constiuents. so i'm asking you to get the seniors/disabled in your life to call your reps and sens when they hit the *hole* and telthem that we aren't forgetting how this lousy POS legislation came to be, passed under the cloak of darkness with tom delay twisting arms and buying votes with promises of jobs for member's kids. let 'em know we remember and can still smell the stench and expect something to be done about this entitlement to big pharma.
