Have you seen your representative during the break?? Many of them are holding town hall meetings in their home districts. 2014 is coming and they need you and I to feel that they are doing their best for us so we will give them another term in DC.

I would appreciate Congressman Jim Jordan supplying us with a list of the lobbyists, corporations and PACs that have donated to him previous campaigns. I know he is considered the most conservative in Congress. but I am not convinced of that.

Why is it that, whenever I hear that a bill will benefit the middle class, it is later revealed that the middle class has been kicked in the butt? It’s the “unintended consequences” of these outrageous attempts to “help” that are hurting us. Either that, or their definition of “middle class” vastly differs from mine. I think “middle class” means those of us employed and making between $25 and $100,000. We are the “tax base”. Every give away program, every tree huger, clean air, clean water, anti-coal, green energy regulation, drug research, education grant, salary & pension plan for government workers and government (O) domestic and foreign     “investment” is covered by OUR MONEY!! Every thing runs on OUR MONEY!! Shouldn’t WE have more say over where our money goes??

Someone recently reminded me that my representative, Jim Jordan, is well educated and a lawyer. He was noting that running against him would be an uphill battle unless we had a female, very well educated (lawyer), to run. Well, Congress is over flowing with well educated, lawyer types – they seem to be doing an awful job. What we need are candidates who TRULY believe in, and support, the Constitution – educated and intelligent are not synonyms.

If you still don’t think you are over taxed and under represented; wake up – there is work to do!! This content provided courtesy of Politics are Personal. Contact the author at PoliticsArePersonal (AT) Gmail (DOT) Com
