I understand your point, and I know that it is tempting to respond to the Republicans' angry, irrational attacks in kind. But believe me, you do our cause no good when you yield to that temptation.
On your website you make your point very reasonably: that the result of Republican obstructionism is the premature deaths of thousands of Americans. It's something else entirely to say that they WANT people to die early. Such inflammatory rhetoric only ensures that people listening, even reasonable people, will not hear your message: they will hear the tone, and close their minds to the meaning.
You are a member of the House of Representatives, a proud position that is worthy of respect. Please treat your office and the offices of your colleagues with the respect they deserve.
