Somehow I don't think so. We live in rural Wyoming, and half the family works in the oil and gas industry. We love Barrasso. And voted for him, and will again. I am so proud to have a senator who can clearly talk on topic, with data and facts. I would rather have him never vote yea on anything than have him vote for something wrong. And by the way, waterboarding is not torture. It is just darn uncomfortable. Torture is permanent harm.

President Obama, as well as us Americans, know what you are doing. Stalling and not voting on what the people want and need in this country. Do the job you were elected to do, and start voting! Your tactics in stalling is only going to back fire on you all. Show our President some respect. How you treat him, is a reflection on how you treat us Americans. We may have been fooled in the past, but not anymore! We The People have spoken by electing President Obama into office. We need change and we need it now! And quit blaming President Obama for the disaster in the Gulf. Enough is enough! 2010-06-28T19:36:32Z tag:opencongress.org,2010-06-28:/comment/200946 Revolution You are a disgrace to your country and should be embarrassed to have the UNITED STATES in front of your title.4th of July is upon us-it reminds us of history and how the people can come together to make a difference.I hope you and your family meet the same outcome as the 15,000,000+ unemployed.You turned your back on the Citizens by playing games and stupid antics.Assistance needs to be offered to ease the minds of the families and allow continued dignity no matter the cost. You spend OUR money like water and the American people MUST and SHOULD be priority one! "As good government is an empire of laws, how shall your laws be made? In a large society,inhabiting an extensive country,it is impossible that the whole should assemble to make laws. The first necessary step, then,is to depute power from the many to a few of the most wise and good." John Adams, Thoughts on Government, 1776 Obviously we dont have the few wise and good in the senate-but we have the power to change that. 2010-06-29T05:16:50Z tag:opencongress.org,2010-06-29:/comment/201035 purplelilac3084 S.3520 needs to be passed immediately. There are 15 million Americans who are "unemployed through no fault of their own," and who are also frantically attempting to find new jobs that do not exist. The majority of these 15 million have a family dependent upon their income, so that increases the number to possibly 30 or even 45 million Americans who are in imminent danger of losing everything. When this happens, the financial and moral ramifications for this country will be dire indeed. I'll say it again-- S.3520 needs to be passed immediately! Thank you for your prompt attention to this matter. 2010-06-29T07:13:47Z tag:opencongress.org,2010-06-29:/comment/201116 pelmof purplelilac3084: You did not write this text--I did. Stop using something you did not create. You have done this 7 times. While you must wish you had created this, you didn't. I have been able to cover all the senators except for seven you targeted. I really object to your just jumping the gun and not letting me complete the task I began early this morning. Hope I don't find you on the last senator's page. 2010-04-26T11:56:41Z tag:opencongress.org,2010-04-26:/comment/194515 DOUGLASFIELD DEAR SENATOR, ~ SHOULD POORER AMERICANS HAVE FAITH THAT OUR U.S. SUPREME COURT IS WELL AWARE THAT AMERICAN PESTIGE INTERNATIONALLY IS VERY MUCH BASED ON HOW WELL WE TREAT OUR OWN CITIZENS~ *** U.S. SUPREME COURT TO THE RESCUE OF MIDDLE~CLASS AND WORKING POOR AMERICANS OR IS THIS JUST ANOTHER BAD DREAM THAT REAL JUSTICE WILL ONLY CONTINUE TO NOT BE AFFORDED US LITTLE PEOPLE HERE IN THE WEALTHIEST COUNTRY IN THE WORLD ?? ** MIDDLE~CLASS AND WORKING POOR RELIGIOUS AMERICANS REST OUR CASE AGAINST GOVERNOR RICK PERRY OF TEXAS & SATAN ~ YOUR U.S. SUPREME COURT HONOR'S !!! ** CAN ANYONE EXPLAIN OTHER THEN SATAN HOW TEXAS GOVERNOR RICK PERRY ON ONE HAND PARDONS FORMER TEXAS INMATE TIMOTHY COLE WHO WAS WRONGFULLY EXECUTED WITHOUT BEING ALLOWED TO EXONERATE HIMSELF USING DNA TESTING IN TEXAS , AND WITHIN THE SAME MONTH THIS SAME GOVERNOR RICK PERRY OF TEXAS DENIES YET ANOTHER DNA TEST PRIOR ANOTHER POSSIBLE WRONGFUL EXECUTION OF HANK SKINNER ??? 2009-05-01T07:03:00Z tag:opencongress.org,2009-05-01:/comment/105042 Erwi31 Why would this senator vote no on a bill that represents the american dream?

I just ran out of benefits today...I have worked non-stop until 2008 when my shop closed. This is ridiculous that I have to sit down and figure out how I am going to feed my son. I have a degree and the skills to aquire a job, the only problem is there aren't any jobs. Come on now, please tell me how I am going to pay to keep a roof over my child's head and feed him? Can you answer that?

It's impossible to justify undermining the very essence of our constitution in order to protect it. Another sell out. 2010-12-06T00:58:50Z tag:opencongress.org,2010-12-06:/comment/220447 charleswhy Yes another sell out, a law breaker. There is legislation that was already passed that unemployment be extended when unemployment reaches under 8%. Do the math yu Jackwagon! If I lived in Wyoming I wouldnt tell anybody. Your not being asked to extend unemployment over 99 weeks you idiot! Do you got a clue of what the hell your talking about. By the way I live in Arizona where our congressmen are Noble and Honorable. And have a clue what they are voting on. Get involved you puppet. Take an hour out of your life and read the bill for a change. Good luck puppet. 2010-12-03T20:07:50Z tag:opencongress.org,2010-12-03:/comment/220064 jimmyclubhouse And that goes for all the Senators,cough Republicans,who are blocking the extention of unemployment benefits and whining about extending the Bush tax cuts,OMG the top 2% are going to have to pay more taxes O whatever will we do
