If you have a senator or congressman up for reelection this year, are you going to automatically vote against him/her? I know people say they are mad as he@@ at the present congress, so I was wondering how people were planning on voting. I haven't decided yet, so I really need to start looking at who is up for reelection in my district.

He will still be a congressman. nm

Yeah, just like my Congressman...
2 years ago. Nothing came of it then, and probably nothing will come of it again. It's just something they do every so often to shut people up.
That congressman is comparing him to Hitler
I can't remember his name, but I saw it on Fox News. All he's doing is getting everybody in an uproar and scaring them. I think that's why people are posting this now.
Let be what is, everybody, and just have a sit-and-wait approach. It's much less stressful! :)
I suggest you ask your congressman...should your precious Obama...sm
take office, along with the superliberals, this is exactly what you'll get.
I am amazed and astounded at the left's lack of care and internal warning systems. This should scare the bejesus out of every man, woman, and child in this country.
Don't say you haven't been warned. They've been conducting secret congressional sessions on how to best take away your life savings away, i.e., 401k.
Not only that, but should you die before you are eligible for your alleged "benefits" you are to receive, along with your social security check.....if you should die.....
They will take 50% of it away from your heirs.
And you think it's just propaganda.......that's exactly what your democratic majority wants you to think......they think most of us are all too stupid to know what's coming before it hits us.
Well, in some cases, that appears to be true, unfortunately.
But I'm scared enough for you, too.
I signed and already heard back from my Congressman
of course, it was a generic letter that the matter is being looked into, etc., but at least I know they got it. I hope we can all bombard their offices with e-mails. We have to have our voices heard.
Please everyone, no matter what your political inclinations, this is for the good of the MT industry - our very jobs. Make your voice heard!
#1 & #3 most liberal senators
It's a fact. The one between them is none other than Ted Kennedy! He's #2! Obama is #1, Biden #3.
How can so many people buy into this spin? Cuba thought they found their true messiah, too. Castro promised them change and something new, and look where that got 'em.
I emailed both my senators........... sm
about him last night. I hope enough people will call, write or email their senators and let them know that this man has no business in the AG office.
What IS Obama thinking???? I wonder how he would like it if he found his daughters being exposed to the very websites this man fought to protect?
Sadly, some of the senators, if not all,
think we DO want this. Doesn't matter how many calls they get. They think we just love mortgaging ourselves, our children, and our grandchildren.
There are a few that are fighting against the bill as it stands but....and I know a certain person will blast me for this but Schumer, Dodd, and Kerry absolutely screamed today that this package is what HAS to pass. Schumer stated right out that it's what the people want. Kerry stated there was no reason to cut anything from it. Dodd stated that the TARP package has money in it to help with the mortgage debaucle so why they want amendments to the tune of $9B in this one was beyond him.
So, if there is money in TARP for the homeowners, why aren't the homeowners being helped? No rocket science in that. The banks and Wall Street are keeping it.
They just don't get it.
Well, I'm glad to see that neither of my Senators.......... sm
were the Republicans who voted for it. Texas has spoken.....FWIW! LOL!
I just contacted my senators
and as politely as I could told them that I was not happy with the the direction our country is going. I also told them both that if they vote yes to cap-and-trade, I will vote against them come next election.
Everything you list here is shared by all the other senators ....
serving. This is legislative experience. It is not executive experience, and it is not foreign policy experience. Obama admitted it, that is why he chose Biden. I choose to believe him.
As far as executive experience...she has run a state, a multibillion dollar budget, made executive decisions every day.
He is running for PRESIDENT. She is running for VP. She has more government running experience than he does. His qualification is running a presidential campaign. Ah. I see. And I thought it was the campaign managers who did that.
She IS more qualified.
It is the way of a democracy. I keep in touch with my senators and one...sm
lone representative. I pay attention to whether they vote in my best interest and are honest in their dealings and let them know if I disagree, and vote or not vote for them in the next election. You are naive if you think that democrats are solely responsible for this meltdown. Looking for the other party to blame is counterproductive and will help no one. Money hungry greed is what has led us to this and both parties are to blame.
Senators, etc, don't have the same security clearance as
the president. Do a little research on the subject. Face it, if the chosen one gets in we are screwed, without the benefit of dinner and a movie first.
Not necessarily....enough Repub senators ....
remain so that the democrats don't have a filibuster-proof majority. So if the repubs grow a backbone and stand up...the dems will be somewhat limited in what they can do. We shall see how it all turns out. But yeah...the potential for a major hosing will still exist.
There are children of congresspeople and Senators serving...
from both sides of the aisle.
Serious question...you do not view a radical Islamist with a nuclear weapon dangerous?
Didn't I hear some senators say that passage of....sm
the "bail out" would not preclude bringing those people criminally responsible to justice? I am for that. Let's see if either candidate steps up to the plate and advocates that now that the bail out has passed.
I am personally involved and communicate with my senators...sm
and represenatives. However, I have talked until I am "blue in the face" to people who believe everything they are told by their church, their husband, their wife or their parents, etc. Unless I am talking to someone who has an open mind and not willing to follow the pied piper and check their facts, I am wasting my breath. Of course, I keep trying. LOL.
I e-mailed my senators telling them the same thing! nm
