I am very disappointed in your "Aye" vote on H.R. 1955 ! Have you considered that, in your zeal to protect the citizens of America, you have allowed fear to cloud your judgment? You and your cohorts are whittling away the rights of the people. Please read your history. Consult the wisdom of Thomas Jefferson, James Madison, Ben Franklin, Winston Churchill. "The only thing to fear is fear itself." FDR

Thank you for your recent vote of "NAY" on the "Generations Invigorating Volunteerism and Education Act"!

REF: H.R. 1388, and H.R. 5563 "Generations Invigorating Volunteerism and Education Act"

I am vehemently against anything similar to these bills. Apparently Congress has passed a bill titled "Generations Invigorating Volunteerism and Education Act".

As a voice for Missouri, which includes myself I ask that you vote NO on these types of Bills sent to the Congress.

It is my feeling that REQUIRED 'volunteer-ism' is nothing more than FORCED LABOR or CONSCRIPTION. It is certainly not volunteer if there is a LAW requiring anything! I feel that to inspire individuals to volunteer is far more valuable to our nation that to require them to 'Volunteer'.

Please enlighten me as to why you feel it necessary to push your weight around in Syria?

I understand that you are a co-sponsor of "Syria Accountability and Liberation Act -

To strengthen sanctions against the Government of Syria, to enhance multilateral commitment to address the Government of Syria's threatening policies, to establish a program to support a transition to a democratically-elected government in Syria, and for other purposes."

It is my opinion that this is nothing more than the SAME OLD TIRED ATTEMPTS to push around other countries. It is the SAME OLD TIRED CRAP that our government has been doing for WAY TOO LONG NOW. Have we ever positively benefited from such attempts? Perhaps in near terms, but NEVER ONCE in the LONG term.

This type of behavior ALWAYS comes back around to face us in an extremely negative way.

I do NOT support this type of activity. And I wish that you would not in representation of ME as a US citizen.

If you have the chance to vote on H.J.Res.41 please vote Aye!

As a citizen of the United States, and a Resident of the State of Missouri, I respectfully DEMAND that you return any fund raising donations to your campaign received from any corporation or company which has received TARP funds "Bailout" monies.

I did not agree with companies like "AIG" issuing contractual bonuses to employees with TARP funds, NOR to I agree with anyone in Congress or the Senate, in fact ANY public official taking a 'donation' to their campaign from any company currently being funded by 'bailout' monies of ANY kind including "TARP" funds.

If you have recieved monies of this sort from any company or corporation please return 100% of it to the company or corporation IMMEDIATELY!

Please also introduce a BILL in congress which requires the same of all other Elected officials within the United States so that they may NOT ACCEPT donations from such 'bailed out' companies or corporations.

Accepting such funds equates to accepting a 'kick back' from companies you may have voted bailout, with the Tax Payer Burdening the weight.

This simply is NOT right, and should be made ILLEGAL! It is a CLEAR violation of a conflict of interest. The interest being that of the People whom you represent vs. the need for you to fund your campaigns.

Please return immediately any funds you have received from these organizations, and no not accept anymore at least until the 'bailed out' companies have restored the funds they have accepted from "TARP".

Please also make every effort to encourage legislation in this regard, and please pressure your peers to do the same.

Please VOTE TO STRIKE THIS TEXT from H.R. 1444 prior to any further motion on this bill.

Please vote Aye for H.R. 1207 - "Federal Reserve Transparency Act of 2009" It is about time we have an Audit of the Private institution which calls itself 'The FEDERAL Reserve" don't you think?
