    I have my rep and Cornyn’s phone numbers on my speed dial. Cornyn’s phone was busy ALL day. My Rep. Lamar Smith was one of the GOP (all of them) who stood up. The good news is that Michael Steele has put Snowe, Collins and Specter on notice. Let donks take over their offices, and put more REAL conservatives into office where they will make a difference! That even 3 RINOs finger prints are on this travesty of a bill just totally pisses me off!! Good on ya, GOP House and those in the Senate who stood up for my great grandchildren!

    I manned GOP phones this year, just prior to the election. My list one day was Aroostook County Democrats. I was to call and ask how they planed to vote. Some hung up on me the minute I said where I was calling from. Most answered the questions, which were simple: for whom will you vote for Pres? For whom will you vote for Senate? EVERY one of them said Obama, and made a point of bashing Republicans in general.

    But probably 95% of the ones I called voted for COLLINS for Senate. Democrats! I thought at the time that it was because she is a County girl. Now I know better.

    I will never vote for her again, in fact I will campaign against her if given the chance. I will hold my nose and vote Dem if need be, just to get her out of here.

    I think some of you people that are so quick to condemn peoples remarks need to stop and try to take into consideration why they say what they say. Politics it’s self is a very emotional subject, not to mention if your a conservative you just saw your country yanked out from under you today. Obviously that raise ones temper and rightfully so. Have you never had deadly thoughts of others in a moment of anger?

    Personally I could care less what happens to any of these socialist, anti-Americans that are dismantling my country, piece by piece. I’m not advocating “death’ on any of them, but in the same turn I could care less if they dropped dead any minute now.

    As far over stating ones self in their posts the final word comes from MM, she has the off switch for any of us. You that keep saying this is being like kos or huffington post, I seriously doubt it from all I heard over the years, myself I won’t go on those sites. They offer me nothing, in fact all they do offer is hate, irrational hate.

    A final note, taking the high road hasn’t got us any where either. When we get back in control, after these socialists bankrupt this country completely, we need to fight and fight hard, just as hard as the dems have been doing for decades.

    I apologize for the lengthy bs, I’m just upset by what happened today to our country and for generations to come. The American public is now made up of nothing more than indentured slaves, all of us tax payers.

    I’ve been delighted to see MM making numerous appearances on Fox again…. This is her very own website, with her very own name attached. If she chose to maintain a site without her name, I think we’d still have found her, because of the sincerity of her writing. But, out of respect for her time, investment, and honor – keeping our bantor to within civil bounds would be our greatest compliment to her…at any time, someone can pull a comment and link it to this website and make it appear she condons every single off the wall statement.

    That said, I cannot remember a day when I was more concerned for this country and her people. We have taken a giant leap off a cliff where no one knows how far down to the bottom it is. And, I do think, with this pre-schoolers plan, we’ll hit bottom. We need grown-ups, but I don’t see any in sight.

    FYI – if we are ever allowed to vote again, please do not consider anyone with a law degree – we need people in office from industry, small business, and agriculture.

    Anyone who voted for this without even reading it needs to be out off office and banned from ever holding a position again.

    Let me see if I get this straight…

    A lot of people lost their homes because they failed to read and understand documents containing all sorts of toxic surprises and we get a global economic collapse.

    Now Congress has signed off on the largest mortgage in galactic history WITHOUT READING THE DOCUMENTS.

    Gee, I wonder how this will turn out.

    But the voters in Nancy’s district, like Nancy, are worthless consumers of oxygen who literally enjoy urinating on people.

    I do live and work here in the bay area, but believe me, I would never vote for pelosi/boxer/feinstein or even that RINO swartzenkennedy.

    I realize you were upset and I forgive you for throwing us all in the pot together. Obviously, CA isn’t the only state who has problems with their reps & senators.

    My kids live in IL. Look what those people have had to deal with. The big cities keep electing those crooks while the rest of the state suffers and pays taxes to support all those community organizers [ACORN]. blago will be the 3rd governor in my lifetime, headed off to the big house. The voting maps show where all the major problems are, the big cities.

    Things look pretty grim but I’m not ready to lie down and let them kick me. Here in the bay area, KSFO talk radio helps me keep my sanity. I’m only one person, but with the help of my good conservative friends, we’ve boycotted code pink in berzerkley when they tried kicking the Marines out, we boycotted the jerk billie ayers when he spoke at st. mary’s university. We all have to pick and choose our battles but I think we all better pick this one. Every phone call, every fax or email, I believe it does matter. I don’t have to be vulgar to remind everyone what “pay backs are”!!!

    Im starting to get a little paranoid. I say a few things about Obama and this administration, then we have the discusssion about them tracing our IP address.

    Well…. I have discovered that the democrats have co-opted the local Taco Bell here in Denver. They have a ‘plant’ working there who prepared my food and gave me food poisoning! I’ve been out of commision and dying for the last 36 hours.

    Those libs are more conniving than I gave them credit for! I didnt know I was that big of a threat to the administration?!?!??!? They wipe me out so I miss the senate vote, I missed that the trolls being banned and now Obama is coming here to sign the bill in my face!!

    The Conservatives are what makes San Francisco and the rest of the Bay Area a viable, if not an envy-able, place to stay! There just aren’t enough of them to throw the pols out. They need help!
