My new Congressman not only hates women...

...he hates kids too! He voted against expanding SCHIP yesterday. Congressman Roe, seen here getting ready to cast another ballot against the working people of our Congressional district,
is a disgrace to his office and he's yet another in a long line of Republicans who feed at the federal government trough but don't want anyone else to share in that meal. It's time I wrote him an email demanding he resign, maybe if I'm lucky someone will read it to him.

Do it. Do it. Do it.

Given that the national mood has turned against Reublicans and greedy oil companies, I'm hoping like crazy the House Republicans follow through on their pledge to shut the government down so close to the election. And holy heck, I hope Bush McCain keeps backing them. Yeah baby, show those swing voters just who's side you Republicans are on.

Waiting

This tiny little man is my Congressman:
His name is David Davis. He's a rock ribbed conservative hard right wing Republican. He's so far right he makes Dick Cheney look like a damn dirty hippie.

I recently sent him an email asking him to introduce legislation that would strip all contractors doing business in Iraq on behalf of the US government of any and all immunity from prosecution. I asked him to do this so that the people in Blackwater and KBR who are murdering innocent Iraqis and raping their female co workers will be brought to justice. I also asked that after he introduced such legislation that he then resign so that his seat can be taken over by a person who will do the people's business in Washington DC and not be a tool of the multi national corporations.

It's been over a month since I asked him to do these two small things for me. He has done neither and he's not even bothered to write me a letter back telling me why he refuses to do what I asked. It's down right rude of him not to at least reply to me, don't you think?
