Well, H.R. 2749 came to a vote today.

The supposed ‘Food Safety Enhancement’ bill. (That Isn’t)

There was fortunately a 2/3 majority required -

280 yeas - 150 nays Failed to meet required votes.

Got the word directly from my Congress Critter’s District Coordinator as I was raking her over the coals... (Blackberry message to her) Since getting home, I checked and he was one of 50 Republicans who voted FOR it - so I fired a stinging email off.

Well, at least for now, we are going to be able to garden, preserve and sell our product without FDA being given carte blanche to our homes, businesses, records, etc. whenever they want! And no $1,000 license required. But watch these buggers - they will try again!

Today, I made a decision - after being told on Friday that the Congressman would never quote Council for American Progress as reason to support Cap and Tax - I took a printout of HIS press release quoting John Podesta’s CAP organization as reason to support it - I gave her a copy of Heritage Foundation’s evaluation - she said ‘But they are a Conservative organization.’. Anyway, my decision is to pound the State Republican Chairman that we want a CONSERVATIVE REPUBLICAN running!!!!!!!! (Starting TONIGHT)

To my surprise, he even touts being an “Independent” on his official issues page.
“Proud to be an independent voice for Delaware in Congress”
So, let him run as an Independent!!!!!!!

Only good thing she said was that ‘so far, he has voted against the health care bill in committee’. He better dang sight vote against it on the floor!

That is the best news that I have heard in a long time.

Next it will get attached to the medical bill and sneak through.

We need to clean out congress and all the elected fools who are doing as they wish, the minute they are elected.

There have been throw them out movements in the past, maybe it is time to work at it in earnest.
