I coulndt agree more with all your statements - BUT - HOW DO WE DO IT ??
HOW DO WE GET CONTROL OF THE 545 people who are SUPPOSED to represent OUR interests ( not theirs)?? and thrurn this run away train around??
Im really terrified where the USA is headed and the worst feeling is being powerless / actionless to affect it

We vote them out. I'm a conservative...not republican nor democrat. I have just moved to Washington State. I'm 68, on Medicare (which scares me), I carry a gun because originally I'm from Texas (we carry). I have taken on 3 issues, Second Amendment, Health care, and replacing our Representatives and Senators and President who are not supporting our constitution
Very well stated.
House Bill titled 'HR 45, Blair Holt Licensing and Record Act of 2009'. Not another stabb at the law abiding citizen! Please, be kindly reminded of the Amendment II: A well regulated militia, being necessary to the security of a free state, the right of the people to keep and bear arms, shall not be infringed. Please be a staunch rejector to this bill and knock this one into space. I vote and watch this very carefully. We need to be going after the criminals and use the laws that are already in effect. Thankyou and remember: If we like our freedom, thank a Vet!
Anonymous comments are useless. If you are going to make a statement in a public forum, don't be a pathetic wimp, take credit for it.

In addition you democrats are ruining our country. If you do not want another revolution I suggest you read the constitution!
I read these comments and I think to myself, we were surprised that Homeland Security released a document titled "Right-Wing Extremists"? You guys are all nuts!
"Your insight serves you well."
** POORER AMERICAN ACTIVE DUTY U.S. MILITARY AROUND THE WORLD WHO ARE RISKING AND LOSING THEIR LIVES FOR ALL OF US ~ HAVE FAMILIES BACK HOME WHO ARE ALSO DYING WITHOUT HEALTH*CARE **
~ PRESIDENT OBAMA AND U.S. SENATOR OLYMPIA SNOWE OF MAINE BOTH KNOW THAT ANY FUTURE HEALTH*CARE PLAN FOR OUR NEW AMERICA NEEDS TO ALSO ENCOMPASS ALL FAMILY MEMBERS(PARENTS & SIBLINGS) 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.

Dive n diva, I'm wondering if you voiced your concern over the Constitution when Bush was in office? He and Cheney were the biggest shredders of the Constitution ever. Not a peep from the right on that. It was *crickets*.
How would you like to ditch your scary Medicare and try to get a policy from the private sector? Hah! That would be really scary, you probably couldn't even get one at any price!
