Homeland Security Satellites dangerous to all U S Citizens.
Fear has gripped the Government and many people of The United States, causing havoc among all citizens. Not in history of civilization has such atrocities been realized. Spying and torture has become a common practice to any individual not living the productive life, people who live peacefully, people who are satisfied with their lives.
Once the Government considers a person or persons unproductive, they are considered alien and a danger to the society. The government fears these people for their disrupting the overall progress of the American Way. Growth and prosperity has become a major concern to those people dwelling in luxury and vanity, while individuals who are satisfied with the common way of living are scrutinized and condemned for being lazy and indifferent to any advancement.
America is the product of devastation to the planet Earth, and to the realm of outer space. The government has sold-out to the destruction of the planet with endless violations, removing the material resources and destroying natural environment, ending nearly all ecosystems of other forms of life.
The End

Help your people vote for unemployment extension 2008 .....

IMPEACH GEORGE BUSH! A TRAITOR! A LIAR! A THEIF! PUT HIM IN THE STREET! EVERYONE SPEAK OUT! DON'T JUST WAIT FOR SOMETHING TO HAPPEN. GET UP AND MAKE IT HAPPEN!

Some truly disturbing posts on this site. Truly disturbing!

I hope that you are reading on www.opencongress.org all of the THOUSANDS of comments on the two unemployment extension bills.
THESE are heartbreaking stories and mine is another one - I have worked so hard for so long and there are no jobs out there for us over 50!!!!!!
PLEASE have compassion - we are LOSING EVERYTHING we've worked all whole lives for!

Next week, the Senate is scheduled to take up a bill sponsored by Senators John Warner and Joseph Lieberman that seeks aggressively to reduce emissions from all sectors of the economy. Please vote in favor of this bill. The science is solid; climate change is real. Greenhouse gas emissions need to be reduced by at least 70% by 2050. Additionally, there must be enforceable benchmarks along the way. Tough legislation is needed now.
Thank you.

What's the deal with all of these SEPARATE bills for extending benefits? Our responses are DILUTED on the different bills. When they look for the number of comments, it looks like not many but when they add together the comments for all the UE extension bills introduced, they'd have to RESPOND to us!!!!
2544 is the one that:
- was introduced FIRST(by Kennedy)
- gives us a $50 increase
- should be pushed for by ALL of us
Make them honor KENNEDY and show empathy for US by passing that bill!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The Unemployment office of Ohio are telling unemployed people that the Fed's haven't released funds for ext. unemployment.They show all accounts as denied. Is this true ?

Thanks
Rick

Try and live like the average person is doing these days , No job and on unemployment.. I think before even running for office the people of the Congress and Senate should take a year of living on little pay or try living on unemployment.. You all made up the myth that we do not want to work.. All I can say is get out there and be one of us for a month try and find a job.. Blue Collar or white collar we are all in the same boat except those Elite in Washington who are hired by us.. We The People..

I agree that many of the politicians should try living their life on only an unemployment check. Maybe their hardline stance against us "lazy" unemployed people will change.
However, I do not feel that Sherrod Brown is NOT one of these senators. Quite the opposite, I have spoken with Sen. Brown and I will tell you that he truly does care about the unemployed in Ohio.

I am convinced our elected officials only care about keeping their jobs and their very comfortable lifestyles at our expense. They have their own special retirement and medical programs they voted for themselves. I wish I could vote on their compensation and benefit package. If they had to live on the programs and packages available to the citizens they might actually find some solutions to some of our complex problems. I am convinced they just don't want to be bothered by the average citizen except on election day!

Please, Do not support H.R.45, this is a dangerous bill and a step in the wrong direction. I agree that there has to be a certain amount of control, but this bill could possiably make all gun owners "criminals". This bill seems to be "being kept quiet" in the news media, I had not heard anything about it until I went to a local gun shop to purchase ammo and they were out of the ammo I was looking for. This bill seems to be making people who want to own a firearm run out and purchase one even if they need one or not. The bill is creating a panic, and that in it's self could be dangerous. Some of these tactics were tried 70 some years ago, don't let it happen again.

I agree with your comment! H.R 45 is a major step in the wrong direction. I believe this is a beginning step to abolish our second ammendment rights. H.R. 45 will not stop the criminals from obtaining and using a firearm against the law abiding citizen. Why would anyone want to support a law that could possibly turn a law abiding citizen into a criminal due to no fault of their own. It will also add additional and unnecessary cost to citizens, firearms manufacturing companies and many other businesses.

H.R. 45 is also a direct contradiction to H.R> 17 which states we may own and use firearms in defense of our selves, family and home. While we will be allowed to defend ourselves we will not be allowed to keep those firearms anywhere we could get at them easily.

I have never been more scared of losing everything my family has fought and died for than I am now. If HR45 passes then we all will indeed be subjects and not citizens, The fact that the safety of our children is a main point to this bill makes me sick. when we can't even send them to school without the fear of being beaten up looms over their heads daily. My parents taught me at a very early age what a firearm was capable of doing to another human being, and I never touched one nore did I want to until I was ready to do it safely. This like most things must be taught in the home and not by a very misinformed teacher that has never been hunting,or handled a weapon. let alone a bunch of coattail riding,yes men who really don't have an opinion but will do anything to kiss ass of our current administration.

Bravo regarding S488.

if we don't want to work in a union where is our choice!!!! vote no against your party for card check and vote yes for America!!!

Sherrod Brown is undoubtedly one of the worst Senators in the country. Here is what the Heritage Foundation has to say about Brown's record.

"Over the past year and half, his Senate colleagues have shown little hesitation in aligning with Sanders. One senator, Ohio's Sherrod Brown, would receive an A in Socialism 101 by virtue of his voting record and numerous co-sponsorships. Brown voted the socialist party line, with Sanders, 96% of the time and cosponsored a bill to raise taxes on small businesses and another that would mandate banks to make favorable loans to businesses that meet certain left-leaning ideals."

This is one of my Senators, I am ashamed to say. He does not listen to his constituents and votes his own agenda rather than that of the citizens of Ohio. In today's climate, definitely a one term pony. Let's vote him and the rest of the Socialists out of office as soon as possible.

According to Mr. Brown on nomination of Sunstein, he heard concern from many constituents, but voted to allow him anyways. What happened to listening to the people that put you in office? He votes the Socialist way and won't listen, he does what he wants. Not supposed to be that way. Vote him out in 2012, to bad that is so far away. He is going to do so much damage in the next 3 1/2 years. God help us all...

BROWN'S MY BOY!!!!

I love you Senator, you can always count on my vote.....provided your voting remains satisfactory....

AND IT IS VERY SATISFACTORY


YEAH BROWN WOOOOOOOOOOOOO
