October 2, 200817 yr Is that stuff just hiden in there? I didn't even scan it, I was looking at the table of contents and saw nothing to direct me to the right section. You have to go past Division A. (The other Divisions are not listed on the first table of contents) I don't agree with much of Division A, but Division B (which is way, way down there) and the others are a complete outrage.
October 2, 200817 yr . . . our Senators have taken the earmark-laden 110 page House Bill and produced a whopping 400 page Senate bailout bill that includes, among other stalwart needs, funding of market research for wool products, motorsports funding for South Carolina, buying wooden bows and arrows for children, and significantly, modifying the excise tax on rum. If only the 9/11 boys would've picked the Capitol Building instead … (sigh)

(The other Divisions are not listed on the first table of contents) I don't agree with much of Division A, but Division B (which is way, way down there) and the others are a complete outrage. I just found it. The table of contents for that section starts on page 261. I got madder and madder the more I read.
October 2, 200817 yr woodsrider, I didn't read the whole thing, but I specifically saw the motorsports thing. Yes, you flagged that yesterday (great catch!). I became a little (more) disillusioned with the whole process when I saw that!
October 3, 200817 yr I know there is much on this site that different people do not agree with. But I really think that most of us can agree with the thought that these clowns in Washington can not get anything right.
October 3, 200817 yr If only the 9/11 boys would've picked the Capitol Building instead … (sigh) What good would that do. It's not like any of them actually show up on a regular basis to vote and such.
October 3, 200817 yr If only the 9/11 boys would've picked the Capitol Building instead … (sigh) I agree (and no you won't see any smileys in this post). Our elected leaders have become so out-of-touch with the needs and concerns of the voters that I don't see any solution other than starting over with a clean slate. Unlike some on this board, I absolutely do not believe that most of our elected officials have the people's interests in mind when carrying out their legislative duties. Money, power, and greed have created a government of the few, by the few, and for the few. God bless Shakespeare

Once elected all they do is try not to rattle any feathers to ensure re-election. How many actually accomplish anything that the promise to do while on the campaign?
October 3, 200817 yr Re-elect no one.:irked: :thumb: This country is in dire need of a reiteration of the Boston Tea Party. BTP2.
October 3, 200817 yr Politicians at their best. Imagine how great this country could be, if we actually had elected officials that would work together. We need , not politicians, but statesmen who adhere to the Constitution of the United States. The Constitution says nothing about helping people buy homes and the creation of government programs to do so, which helped to create this mess, were unconstitutional to begin with. It would be great for everyone to own their home, but you need to save up a down payment, then buy a home that you can actully make the payments on for the duration of the loan.

That is why I am voting for Bob Barr at least his policies are more so in line with the constitution than two main party are presenting at this time. If Hal Rogers votes Yes today, he will lose my vote as well, and I like him
