Is your party loyalty worth selling out the United States, which gave you and our President the opportunity to be where you are today? You should have to take the health insurance you are selling out to, and all of the provisions. Unfortunately, members of Congress can dodge that bullet. Is that fair to the Amaerican people? 2010-03-21T17:33:54Z tag:opencongress.org,2010-03-21:/comment/189664 fortermlimits Let's get rid of this guy in 2010. 2009-10-25T05:38:57Z tag:opencongress.org,2009-10-25:/comment/150736 navywifeked You need to read the Constitution, and not just carry it with you. It is not a right to have healthcare. A right is God given. Don't try and read between the lines to make it work for you. Stop with Cap and Trade, Ohioans can't afford more tax money taken from them. We are hurting enough as it is. I really hope you don't get re-elected, that people will wake up and see that you are a closet socialist. 2010-02-04T04:57:32Z tag:opencongress.org,2010-02-04:/comment/183562 DOUGLASFIELD CONGRESSMAN, NOW THAT THE PEOPLES U.S.CONGRESS HAS DOCUMENTED OUR UNJUST AMERICAN JUDICIAL SYSTEM,HAVE YOU HEARD IF THE U.S. SUPREME COURT KNOWS WHERE AND WHEN WE CAN ALL WATCH THESE POSSIBLE WRONGFUL EXECUTIONS TAKE PLACE ?

BUT if you do NOT agree, just smile and delete. This is NO attempt to influence your vote and NO.... I have NOT been approached or solicited or asked or paid or anything....to "launch this letter". I am reminded that when Americans fail to speak out against what they perceive as bad politics and bad policies, we ALL loose. I have always been a taxpaying and voting citizen. My first vote was for John F. Kennedy. I have felt great disdain for African Americans who vigorously support the Republican Party. When the Clinton's were being attacked by Ken Star and were subjected to the dirty tactics of a smear campaign by the Republican Party, even 'tho personal misbehavior invited that, I wrote letters of support to the Clinton's and, on their behalf, to numerous politicians and to church leaders across this nation. In my opinion, this 2008 Presidential political contest is NOT so much about race or/and gender, as it is about POWER. But it MUST also be won ethically and fairly. As it appears to me, BOTH the Clinton's are making a strong case to validate the belief that the abused, once gaining power, may become the abuser. Speaking for myself only, I am grateful that when there was a call for the bus boycott in Montgomery, AL, that NOT one African American Minister called for support of continued segregated busses. Every "chance" to support a candidate is NOT the same thing as an opportunity to promote the GOOD of the people. To express my concern about their actions, I have personally contacted certain community leaders via web addresses, who have been motivated to step forward with unnecessary and untimely "ENDORSEMENTS" or/and divisive debasing comments.OH! What would Adam Clayton Powell think now? ~~~ PLEASE help God BLESS America~~~ It IS our responsibility to step IN here. The media, while we NEED them for information, IS also fanning the flames of a fire that has the potential to become big and dangerous. I hope to have as many people as possible call the Clinton Headquarters; numbers listed below. I have called.Tell them: 1. Tell any one who answers the phone that you want to see an end to the negative campaigning 2. That you are a private citizen who does NOT like the personal attacks and distortion of the record 3. That you WILL withdraw support and WILL campaign against ANY candidate who initiates and maliciously perpetrates "personal" and cheap attacks 4. That we Americans want POSITIVE campaigning on THE ISSUES from a leader who seeks to unify, NOT just win .............OR....... say whatever YOU choose, but DO call to say something that may help foster a more civil campaign Thanks, Janet OHIO 4420 North Fairfax Drive Arlington, VA 22203 703-469-2008 Fax: 703-962-8600 Arizona 602-279-8030 | Website Arkansas 501-244-0200 | Website California - North 415-255-7431 | Website California - South 213-908-0190 | Website Colorado 303-296-1708 | Website Georgia 404-541-9595 | Website Iowa 515-282-5307 | Website Minnesota 612-374-0156 | Website Missouri 314-961-2008 | Website Nevada 702-664-1040 | Website New Hampshire 603-782-4640 | Website New Jersey 609-695-0600 | Website New York 212-213-3717 | Website South Carolina 803-667-3112 | Website 2008-02-12T12:26:59Z tag:opencongress.org,2008-02-12:/comment/785 zaman Re: H.R. 5056 It is important to have diplomatic relations with Iran but the persecution of the Bahá’ís needs to addressed up front and resolved. Iran is practicing segregation or apartheid but unlike most forms of segregation or apartheid the Bahá’ís don’t just have unequal rights they don’t have any rights at all. Here is a quote from the attached linked article. “While the Baha'i faith, founded on notions of equality and humanitarianism, originated in what would become the Islamic Republic of Iran, members of the religious community have faced persecution since the republic's establishment under the Islamic constitution of 1979. According to the Iranian government, the Baha'i population represents a political sect, not a religious community, and is consequently regarded as apostate. Although the rights of certain minority groups, such as Christians and Zoroastrians, are explicitly protected under the constitution of the Islamic republic, the Baha'i population, estimated by the U.S. Department of State to be approximately 300,000-350,000 of the majority Muslim population, enjoys no rights. The unprotected status of the Bahá’ís facilitates discrimination without justification within the Iranian legal system. Courts in Iran have denied Bahá’ís the right of redress or protection against assault, killings, or other forms of persecution. These courts have established that Iranian citizens who kill or injure Bahá’ís are not liable for damages because their victims are "unprotected infidels" http://www.metimes.com/International/2008/02/11/dire_situation_for_irans_bahais/2651/ 2009-03-23T09:16:19Z tag:opencongress.org,2009-03-23:/comment/97608 ladalang How could you vote yes on Obama's Hitler Youth initiative?
