Here is an update to my column entitled “Where is Dan’s Voice?” from earlier this week. My anonymous writer, who now says to just use his name, recieved a less than adequate response from his Congressman. And, keep in mind, this Congressman and the writer are both Republicans. Enjoy! Hello Elizabeth: Let me first say thank you for responding to my concerns. I reviewed the links you brought to my attention with the assumption th…

…or what is probably the longest time in my career. Beside deciding whether it’s really advisable to relocate to Michigan (the new promised land for jobs), I’ve now got to find a proper way to scold my Senators and Congressman for not reading – maybe at all – the bills they seem compelled to vote on even before they are in print. Such bills are usually well over 1,000 pages. Can somebody offer a little help here? I’m …

… seemed on the superficial level to offer continuity, it was actually an ideological reversal, back to the Liberal wing of the Republican Party. Though he lambasted his opponent Michael Dukakis, tarring him with the “Liberal” label, which Reaganism had turned into a dirty word, Bush himself was every bit a Progressive. His admitted trouble with “the vision thing” prevented him from continuing with Reagan’s unfinished work: shrinking government, e…

…te my conscience on it, I probably would not. I probably would still vote for the health care bill at the end of the day.” http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=URr68joWr1E&feature;=player_embedded So it appears that most of Congressman Stupak’s recent rhetoric was simply theater. What we are left with is a $1 trillion new healthcare entitlement for every American, regardless of their ability to pay. The president has said that this legis…

…source material. It is being used with permission of the writer. However, I am withholding the writer’s name to protect his privacy. Hello Elizabeth: You may recall that I visited with you and your staff on August 14 at Congressman Lungren’s office. To put a face with this email, you may remember me as a Kaiser employee, motorcycle rider, private pilot and last year’s Folsom Music Boosters President. When we met, I expressed my …

…it has become evident that Democratic Congressmen see the writing on the wall. They are beginning to announce their retirements. As of my last count, four have decided not to seek reelection. The most recent being a long term Congressman from Tennessee. Will 2010 be a repeat of 1994? Or, will it be even worse for the Democratic Party than 1994? Who knows? I can just say for the record I would not want to be running for reelection as a member of …

…collective disappointment of McCain among Republicans since 2008, McCain was able to win a 2010 re-election in Arizona by a 56 to 32 percent margin. So, McCain’s support of Romney in Arizona will go a long way. Gingrich and Congressman Ron Paul have signaled that they are in this nomination battle for the long haul, if not taking it all the way to the convention. But should Romney have wins in 78% of the states going into Arizona, then Arizona…

… it immediately”. Shortly after the speech Wilson did just that and called the White House and apologized for his “inappropriate and regrettable comments”. The next day President Obama told the cabinet meeting he accepted the Congressman’s apology. End of story right? Well not quite. Republicans and Democrats alike have said the apology by Wilson was not quite good enough. They wanted him to do it in the place where the crime occurred…Congress. D…

…not care about the behavior of his cabinet or the behavior of Congress. They are in power. We can only do one thing: Vote them out in November. The only thing I would like to see investigated more are the allegations made by Congressman Sestak in Pennsylvania in which he said he was offered a position by the Obama Administration to get out of the race against Arlen Spector. Attorney General Eric Holder should hire a special investigator immediat…

…been so clearly demonstrated as with health care reform. What may be less clear is the hypocrisy in thinking that liberals represent enlightenment while conservatives are of lesser intelligence. Case in point. When Republican Congressman Eric Cantor brought the 2400 page Senate bill to the health-care summit in order to reinforce his position, the president criticized him for using it as a “prop”. Democratic Congressman Louise Slaught…
