GOUVERNEUR, NY - Congressman-elect Bill Owens was sworn in at noon today.

Owens indicated in a press release released shortly afterwards that he was now in favor of the the "Affordable Healthcare for America Act" bill in direct contrast to his earlier position during the election campaign.

According to Politico.com, Mr. Owens assured voters that he felt the public option had no place in the health care reform bill. Contrary to that position, Mr. Owens now indicates that he intends to vote in favor of the bill even though it now contains a public option.

What did they expect?

He's a democrat.

Sounds like another liar and a realist got elected:

He knows who butters his bread:

The people vote but the party packs his treasure chest and moves the campaign.
The people don't count beyond their vote.......... and that can be manipulated..

When you have a politician being that blatant in breaking campaign promises, that's a good sign to vote for someone else next time.
