Get a grip. I'm sick of this nonsense. There are some people in Congress who've been standing up for our country and for us, and half of FR is ready to kick them to the curb because "fire them all" is a snappy slogan...

I agree, maybe we should save all 4-5 of them that at least showed a some conservative tendencies... keeping in mind that the point is to punish those who have violated their oaths... which ALL of them have done at one time or another if the move suited them or their careers.

One that I will always remember is Sen. Coburn, mr. conservative incarnate, the conservatives conservative stand up on the floor of the Senate speaking so eloquently about the complete unconstitutionality of the TARP bail-out, how wrong it was for congress to be doing this, how senators should stand firm and follow the Constitution... Then in the next sentence said he will would vote for it, and he did!

So yeah, the "fire them all" works for me.

Thank you, that’s the sort of case I’m making.

I don’t remember each and every detail for each and every state (and as someone said, yeah, my Congressman works for me, and he sucks and I need to deal with my state.... BUT...) every one of them have either caved or walked away or AROUND something important to you. To let it go as “Ok, well, he was just doing his job” is fine.

If that’s the CASE then release the Navy SEALS immediately.

Investigate the cast of Fort Hood.

Fire every single person who voted in both houses of Congress for that abomination they are calling “Health Care Reform” (Yeah, fine, which 3 or 4 voted against it again?)

Why are we letting these people sit in our names when they haven’t even BEGUN an investigation in the Major at Ft. Hood - and yet we KNOW people were concerned about him for YEARS. The Army didn’t just screw up, it got innocent people killed. Betcha MONEY the Commanders that let this all go were Obama supporters....
