THANK YOU FOR HAVING A VOICE .. WE NEED AN UNEMPLOYMENT EXTESION.
I thank you for serving a moderate in Senate. That’s what we need!! :)
Dear Mrs. Snowe,
I hope you will join me and vote “No Confidence” in Obama. Huge Deficit spending, Nationalized banking, nationalized healthcare, nationalized auto-industry. Hello!? None of these are representative of the Republican party values, as I understand them. Crisis→ catastrophe→ Soviet-States-Of-America. Sorry, I don’t buy it.
Is this the “Change” Americans were “Hoping” for? Please remember how much blood has been shed to protect us from this. Will no-one wake-up and stop this maniac?
Please help stop the socialization of America.
Balanced budget anyone? The CHANGE we all need: If a request to spend Tax Payers money doesn’t pass through the appropriations committee with a “zero” in the balanced box, then it is irresponsible government – pork-amondous – fraud against the American people.
Sincerely,
-Mitch Farrar
MS. SNOW – I AM VERY DISAPPOINTED IN YOU – START ACTING LIKE A REPUBLICAN WITH STRONG CONSERVATIVE VALUES OR YOU WILL BE VOTED OUT OF OFFICE…..THAT’S A PROMISE. I AND THOUSANDS JUST LIKE ME WHO HAVE NEVER BEEN INVOLVED IN THE POLITICAL ARENA, THE SILENT MAJORITY, ARE NOW FED UP WITH YOU AND IF YOU WANT TO KEEP YOUR JOB START ACTING APPROPRIATELY OR PACK YOUR BAGS. OH, YOU CAN TELL YOU LUNCH BUDDY KAY BAILY THE SAME GOES FOR HER.
warrior,
I am telling you that Senator Olympia Snowe would not be in office “if she voted exactly like Tom Coburn or Jim DeMint”, because Maine is a state with the majority are non affiliated voters, aka moderates. Olympia Snowe is actually very popular with her constituents, she even has over 70 percent approval rating of voters in her state, and to prove it she got 74 percent of the vote in 2006 in a Democratic lock state for Presidental Elections, including 50 percent of Democratic voters who voted in 2006, which was a bad year for Republicans.
Of course she’s popular with Democrats and “moderates”…which is why it’s such an offense she flies the Republican party banner! I’m fed up with both parties – CONSTITUTIONALISTS, GET OUT AND VOTE.
I thought the issues I voted for were timely and worthwhile, seems as if our candidates do not see the urgency.
That’s scary.
I just learned what RINO means. This is a true traitor to her party and the people of her state and a true RINO. (Republican in name only)
Wait, @warrior, Kay Bailey Hutchison has strogn values in Republican party, she aint no moderate!
YES, YES, YES. No one I know will even admit to voting for him now that they see what they got.
First you should never make law on an extreme situation because it will not help but a very small select few. It will then clash with the laws that protect all of us. We need to work in the laws already in place to help those in need. Or if need be remove laws that don’t protect everyone.
Dear Mrs. Snowe,
The passing of this H.R.1388 Bill as we see and understand it, returns the World, and America to a bygone era, akin to what the German people were subjected to by their government in the 30’s.
I don’t support Federalized Volunteerism, especially when it is mandatory and the mandatory education (indoctrination) of our children.
I strongly urge you return to the citizens of the United States of America, the Free Speech guaranteed to them in our Constitution. Individuals who volunteer to serve in this institution, who wish to serve the people of the USA via this government program, should retain the right of free speech, just as you retain your right to free speech!
We insist that you, as our elected official, work to REPEAL H.R. 1388.
Frighteningly Yours,
Mitch Farrar
coo koos in here
RINO.
Damn Ottumwanurse you ugly!
This woman is not a true representative of the people. Look at the bills she supports. Maine, surely you have someone else that is better.
I think that she needs to change her party to democrat. She truly does not vote for the republic of which our country was founded on. Watch CSPAN to see that her votes are never in the best interest of the american people, whom she was elected to represent.
She is trying to now make the president have the authority to shut down the internet. They are trying to take away our freedom of rights!
Health care bill is NOT reform, since they will not make the costly insurance rates that are caused by lawsuits included in this bill. Dean said they don’t want to make the lawyers mad, since they support the democrats with contributions. sounds like bribery to me.
I hope you people in Maine wake up and vote this woman out.
Mister Senator,
I have one question for you. The H.R.45 – Blair Holt’s Firearm Licensing and Record of Sale Act of 2009. What are your thoughts on this bill? Will be become as the citizens of Australia, China, Malaysia, and other countries? Will we not have the right to defend our self without having to submit to the government saying if we can or cannot have a gun and then be taxed on each gun. This bill only puts more illegal guns out on the street and puts the law abiding citizens in more danger as that we would not be able to have protection of our home and property. Some people can’t afford the taxes we are forced to pay now. Then if this bill passes we will be taxed on our right to bear arms. Where will this all end?

I HOPE YOU ARE READING THESE POSTS, IF NOT THE BILLS, BECAUSE IT IS CLEAR THAT YOU ARE NOT REPRESENTING YOUR CONSTITUENTS.
Honorable Senator Snowe:
In the upcoming vote on the Health Care bill, I urge you to think not as a member of the Republican Party but as a woman of wisdom.
How can you or anyone else justify voting for any bill that can’t be read and analyzed? Regardless of assurances given, if it can’t be read and analyzed first, it should never be approved. Especially one that will impact every citizen throughout the US? To Vote blindly is not only unwise, it is unethical! Please don’t make this mistake again! We don’t want it and simply can’t afford it.
Senator Snowe, I strongly urge you to make the right choice and vote against any bill you don’t know what is actually included nor the real cost. Don’t make this mistake again; Your constituents and all of the citizens of our country deserve better.
Vote NO on the Health Bill!!
Thank you.

I do not live in Maine, but will find out who is running against her in the next election and donate all the money I can. What do you stand for Ms. Snowe? Are you listening to your constituents?
Olympia Snowe is actually very popular with her constituents, and in fact she has the highest approval rating of her constituents of all senators, and to prove it she got 74 percent of the vote in 2006 in a Democratic lock state for Presidental Elections, including 50 percent of Democratic voters who voted in 2006, when the Democrats took control of Congress!
SNOWE IS A PIECE OF DOG SQUEEZE!
OUT TRAITOR OUT!
WHO votes for this dispicable RINO? The welfare Somalis in Lewiston?
Senator Snowe is a disgrace in representing the people. Yesterday she voted YES to the Baucus bill! Not one senator READ the bill, they didn’t even get it yet! What a disgrace to the constitution!
This bill taxes companies, fines us, takes money from Medicare, and will cost alot of money. We do NOT have any money. we are broke!
It is time we vote her out, and all senators who vote for a bill they don’t even bother to read!!!!
~ 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.

Unless things have changed – Military dependents get the same health care coverage that active Military do. At least that’s how it was as recently as 1992, when I separated from the USAF with an honorable discharge and the National Defense ribbon for Kuwaiti Liberation. We want change in health care – a nationally run program ISN’T the change that’s best for this nation.
I have never been one to think government controls our lives until this moment. We the people of the United States of America have fought for freedom, our ancestors left a life without control, without freedom of religion, without freedom of speech, and taxes. What would they think now that our government is becoming more socialistic everyday? We built ourselves into a corner now that will take trillions of dollars to get us out. The health care reform will not help the average person. Myself for instance will be bearing an increase in my health insurance plan. If this bill passes I will be offered free health insurance right? WRONG. It’s not free with the $4,000.00 tax penalty at the end of the year. What is the point in spending more tax dollars with no benefit for the American people? We the people need to speak our voice because we do have an opinion and we do have control. After all our government works for us, we don’t work for our government.
Where’s her money trail on this profile? I see only two contributors listed…just curious.
I’d also like to see Senator Snowes money trail. What are you hiding? I live in Maine & I’m watching all of you!
