WE NEED TO MAINTAIN PRESIDENT BUSH'S SURVEILLANCE PROGRAM TO STOP TERRISTS. TO EVEN CONSIDER ALLOWING ANY CHANGE IN THIS CURRENT POLICY IS LUNACY. WE'LL BE BEHIND EUROPE AND AND THE ONLY COUNTRY IN THE WESTERN WORLD WITHOUT INTEL? WHAT IS THE LOGIC BEHIND THIS, TO DELIBERATELY DISABLE THE AMERICAN PEOPLE? WHY DOESN'T CONGRESS UNDERSTAND THAT YOU WORK FOR US, YET YOU DICTATE POLICIES WHICH "WE THE PEOPLE" DO NOT SUPPORT? I DIDN'T VOTE FOR SOROS, I DON'T CARE HOW MUCH MONEY HE HAS AND I SAY "NO" TO LUNACY!
Is this not a board for comments about John Tanner? I thought when I clicked on this link that I would find meaningful infromation about my representative, but all I found was your garbage on a page of personal importance to me. I will thank you if you will abstain from any further comments not relating to Representative John Tanner. Thank you.
I would like to Thank Mr. Tanner on his NO vote for H.R.2454 American Clean Energy and Security Act of 2009.
