Please vote Senator Boxer OUT! She really doesn’t care about what is best for us!
She pleaded to get money for the highway dept. to get more money, so they don’t lose their jobs. They already got stimulus money. Tell her to TURN the water on for the farmers and their workers who have to stand in line to get free food so they don’t starve! The farm land is depleating to nothing. Soon food prices will skyrocket. We could even have a famine , since alot of states count on their food.
~ PRESIDENT OBAMA AND U.S. SENATOR OLYMPIA SNOWE OF MAINE BOTH KNOW THAT ANY FUTURE HEALTHCARE PLAN FOR OUR NEW AMERICA NEEDS TO ALSO ENCOMPASS ALL FAMILY MEMBERS OF ACTIVE DUTY MILITARY MEMBERS…ANYTHING LESS WOULD BE UN*AMERICAN ~
JUST MAYBE AMERICA NEEDS A FEW MORE REVOLVING DOORS IN OUR U.S. CONGRESS *
OUR COUNTRY COULD REALLY USE MANY MORE SINCERE AMERICANS LIKE THIS SPECIAL U.S.SENATOR OLYMPIA SNOWE FROM MAINE WHO CONSIDERS THIS COUNTRIES 45 MILLION POOR AMERICAN MEN WOMEN AND CHILDREN WITHOUT PROPER HEALTH CARE LIKE HER OWN FAMILY AHEAD OF HER ELECTED POLITICAL FAMILY **
45 MILLION POORER AMERICANS HAVE OBVIOUSLY BEEN TOUCHED BY AN ANGEL WITH THE PEOPLES U.S. SENATOR SNOWE OF MAINE.
LAWYERS FOR POOR AMERICANS CAN BE FOUND WITH ANY SEARCH ENGINE.

Mrs. Boxer,
Pack up your office! Your name and Senator should not be said together. Follow the money trail everyone, look where she gets her money and you will see which way she will vote. It won’t be for the people that put her in office.
She’s the type you have to pry out of office. You know, the do-nothing, career politician who claims to “work hard for the people” while she is lining her pockets.
You will not get my support or vote in 2010. I do not support the government takeover of our health care. I do not support Cap and Trade. Your contribution to the deficit is not appreciated.
Since you voted for cloture to proceed to HR3590, guess you just aren’t listening. Here comes 2010!!! tick tock
Yo Babs ahh senator Babs, Carly is comming your way.
RATIONING: Elderly question flu shot controls
65 and older face H1N1 vaccine limits
Two months after H1N1 flu vaccine was first distributed to public health districts around the country, people 65 and older with serious medical conditions still can’t get vaccinated.
Public health authorities admit they have been inundated with calls from the elderly who want to know when they can receive vaccinations.
Many seniors have called the Review-Journal to complain. Some refrain from giving their names because they fear their complaints could cause their Social Security benefits to be cut off.
JUST-SAY-NO TO OBAMA/PELOSI CARE
Flu vaccines have been rationed for years, and the rationing has typically been in favor of ‘at-risk’ groups like the elderly and healthcare workers. I know this for a fact because I have often had difficulty getting a flu shot myself because I don’t fall into one of these at-risk groups.
The flu vaccine shortage is nothing new and has little, if anything, to do with the recent health insurance reform bill. Rather, recent vaccine shortages were caused because the vaccine market in the U.S. is monopolized by only a couple of firms whose profits depend upon high demand for the vaccines, and so produce as little as possible to curb costs and increase demand.
The for-profit model for vaccine distribution is really to blame for vaccine shortages, but I agree that little has been done to address the problem in congress and I would like to see some brainstorming on the issue.
S373 which is seeking to ban pythons as pets is RIDICULOUS!! First of all, the problem (if you can even call a few isolated incidents and some fake-fear-mongering attempts a problem) is solely in Florida, so why is this being considered as a federal issue? Why should we punish all pet owners for the stupidity and irresponsibility of a few morons?? What’s next, ban dogs because a few dogs have bitten someone?? Come on!! Wake up!!
The issue is in Florida, it is not nationwide!! The Burmese that ARE caught need to be humanely euthanized, just like any feral animal! Herpetologist could use the eggs and other data for research, AND THAT’S WHO NEEDS TO BE DOWN THERE! Not a bunch of stupid rednecks with shot guns! It is NOT the snakes’ faults that their owners could not provide for them! This action is totally unnecessary, and completely ridiculous. This just goes to show the government is too ignorant to work on the big issues like, NATIONAL DEBT, THE ECONOMY, ya know, things that affect EVERYONE!
Back to the kitchen Babs. Ironing your husbands shirts is the must needed skill you have to master.
it’s time to get all new representatives for Indiana, they are all dirty, all on the take and drunk on the rich man’s money. a drunk sailor is more conservative then these guys.
it is my opinion that we need to put a stop to career politicians they go into office with good intentions and leave corrupt, bank accounts full and us (the common man) a lot poorer then the year before.
Ladies and Gentleman i know what you are thinking; “no my guy is honest, good and pure as the Antarctic wind drive show” NOT SO! our representatives are like children with their dad’s cell phone and when dad get the bill he is angry because there isn’t the money in the budget to pay the bills. so the family eats macaroni and cheese for the next three months.
Listen to reason my friends, if we keep doing what we have been doing we are going to keep getting we have been getting. TIME TO CLEAN HOUSE.

SENATOR,
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 ?
TROY DAVIS & MUMIA ABU ~JAMAL ~ ARE HAVING PRAYERS FOR JUSTICE SAID FOR THEM WORLD~WIDE ..WE CAN ALL ONLY HOPE AND PRAY THAT EVERYONE IN OUR U.S.CONGRESS THAT KNOWS AND UNDERSTANDS HOW UNJUST OUR U.S JUDICIAL SYSTEM CAN BE WITH OUR POORER AMERICANS,BECOMES ACTIVE IN MAKING SURE THAT TROY DAVIS OF GEORGIA AND MUMIA ABU~JAMAL OF PENNSYLVANIA RECEIVE FAIR AND JUST TRIALS BEFORE ANY POSSIBLE WRONGFUL EXECUTIONS TAKE PLACE.
LAWYERS FOR POOR AMERICANS IS A WWW VOLUNTEEER LOBBY THAT SINGS OUT FOR OUR MIDDLE~CLASS AND WORKING POOR AMERICANS. WE CAN BE FOUND WITH ANY SEARCH ENGINE BY OUR NAME OR TELEPHONE NUMBER.(424-247-2013)
If the president can be limited in the time that he/she can serve as president, why are senators allowed to “serve” in office until the day they die? Why can’t we get rid of the career politicians altogether and pass legislation limiting a senator to 2 terms period.
Why did Californians vote this do-nothing loser back in?!?! That is why!!!

The video that her opponent created is absolutely wonderful! Ms. Boxer is a big crook, and is letting the farmland dry up so she can protect minnows! Don’t matter if people are starving because she does not care!
Vote her out, it is time for real change. The goverment is out of control, and we have to vote everyone out and try and save our country!
As a constiuent, I urge you to oppose any health care bill unless abortion is explicitly excluded from the scope of any federally mandated, federally subsidized, or federally defined health insurance plans. Please tell me how you intend to vote on this crucial issue.
While I do support healthcare reform for pre-existing conditions, insurance coverage for the unemployed/underinsured, closing gaps in persription coverage “donut hole” I DO NOT consider elective abortions reproductive heathcare!
Thank you for your courage, and finally standing up to obstructionist
politics.Although I,and most of the people I know ,feel that without a Public
Option there is no real competition,I do feel that this is a huge
step to reign in the insurance companies and help to protect the health
of ALL of us.Myself and all the Democrats I know will be at the polls
to vote for each person that voted yes on this bill.
John Boener said in his address to the Floor on Sunday night said, “Shame on each and every one of you who substitutes your will and your desires above those of your fellow countrymen. Around this chamber, looking upon us are the lawgivers. We break the ties of history in this chamber. We break our trust with Americans.”
Many will be watching and looking for men/woman who exemplifies: Honesty, Reverence, Hope, Thrift, Humility, Charity, Sincerity, Moderation, Hard Work, Courage, Personal Responsibility, and Gratitude.
“I fear all we have done is to awaken a sleeping giant, and fill him with a terrible resolve” Isoroku Yamamoto
Unfortunately, Boxer does NOT exemplify any of these…..
Please allow the further amendments to make sure that there are no further taxes, that people aren’t fined.
You cannot force this matter and that’s what you are doing.
What do you not understand about CHOICE!!
