Hello everyone, I thank you for taking time to read this post. I want to urge you to please contact your Senator(s) and voice opposition to the current administration’s Stimulus plan. If you believe spending 800 billion dollars to fix something that will fix itself then thank you for reading this post and I am sorry you feel that way. If you are like me and are outraged that government will continue to throw more of our money down the drain please utilize Mike Huckabee’s website link to find contact information for your state Senator(s). Please do this first thing this Monday to allow your voice to be heard. If the person on the other end does not sound enthused to hear you, don’t give it two seconds thought. The point is that they are to tell their boss, your Senator what the people are saying. Call and let them hear you, please stand up with us and bring back direction to our country.

Been doin it for yrs! ;D

I have had very good feedback from my Congressmen and there voting records have been consistent with my views.
It is frustrating though to live in a solid Red state and Congressional District and see the Liberals in complete control and not caring about their constituents thoughts (look at the polls on this stimulus package) let alone what I think.
Pease write or call your Congressmen on what ever the issue and support the NRA!

I have a stack of reply letters from all my elected officials.
I write often.
-
I write both of them a couple times a week. By the way, Florida is 7 to 1 against the "Stimulus" according to Fox News..
-
I have sent a few letters off
mostly after I have had a few Coopers and read something new about wanting to ban something that I like doing (long list hehe )
and I get a reply some times
still it is worth getting the message other wise we just get run over
hmmm hang on that has happened here all ready

That's pretty close to the 6 to 1 against nationally. However, congress doesn't care what the constituents think anymore...

One web site I utilize to find out which of our Constutional Rights our illustrious leaders are trying to take away is:
www.congress.org (http://www.congress.org) This site has both Senate & Congressional bills & where they are in the process. Check them out

I cant tell you how many times I have contacted Lindsey Grahamnesty about how I as his constituent expects him to vote and how many times it has fallen on deaf ears..... He used to actually write back when I requested it and address the issues I raised telling me why he votes the way he does..... but after the last time when I told him that I, my wife, and about 15 other people that I swayed voted against him in the primary he no longer replies to my correspondence. I was very polite about it. I told him thank you for his time in Washington, but we in South Carolina no longer needed his service...... Sadly, he won reelection this last go around by a sizable margin and he continues his service as a flaming RINO & John McCain's lap dog.
Letter I sent him here:

It is a travesty that these bums continue to get reelected time and time again despite their incompetence and failure to fulfill the wishes of their constituents..... I have heard that reelection rate for incumbents is right around 90%..... And with Graham and Jack Murtha going back for another term, the intelligence level of voters is once again proven to be well below what is needed to get this country back where it needs to be.

Since moving to Missouri I have written the Missouri contingent in Washington numerous times. Claire McCaskill is our liberal Senator. She definitely has some strange views on the Second Amendment. Every time she writes me back it's to proclaim that she fully supports my Second Amendment right to own sporting arms and hunt! Last time I checked the Second Amendment was a political right like the right to free speech not to own a hunting rifle only. As a trained historian, the Second Amendment has nothing to do with hunting or hunting arms!

That is because they know that the constituents they ignored about the bailout plan, are the very people who will re-elect them anyway. If every representative and senator who was up for re-election and also voted for the bailout plan, lost, we would be well on the road to having compliant and obedient congress critters. Stupid voters equal stupid representatives.

All of my representatives have heard how I feel. They don't care though. They get health care, they buy gas minus all the tax they charge us, they have armed guards when they won't let us carry, and they debate the stimulus package and declare a state of emergency when we KNOW there's a problem and are waiting for sensible action, not more platitudes.
Government serves no purpose but to propogate itself. Politicians serve no purpose but to get reelected. We are not constituents, we are livestock to them. Llamas, sheep, and goats get more consideration from their overseers.
If you run for office, fine. If you are re-elected, chances are that you aren't worth a s***. The more you get re-elected the more you are like those big hummers and SUV's. We know they're no good but we keep asking for them. Duh.
