Why none of them voted against their pay increase?
I wish I could get a 5,000 dollar year pay increase for doing nothing.
Current pubbies are not a solution they are part of the problem.
Get rid of all incumbants and rats.

GREAT, this is just what we need.
Another idiot grabbing our wallet.
If you want to donate, fine.
Keep out of my pocket.

Warren, you can sit in a corner and THINK GOOD THOUGHTS if you want but in the real world, it takes MONEY and VOLUNTEERS to win campaigns....
To: Warren
How do you figure he's in your pocket, moron. If you don't want to donate....don't.

Thank you dts, that's very helpful. More to the point, Gopher is right. Send money. Me, I've contributed to Thune, Forrester, Talent, Chambliss, Ganske & Coleman. The future of the country is at stake. Get in the game!
To: Gopher Broke
I was under the impression that fundraisers and solicitations of this sort were verboten on Free Republic.

I agree. Why should I help them implode? The day they stand up for Republican beliefs and put viable candidates on the ballot will be the day I give them money. Not before.

Like I told PBS, you still get tax dollars, then you don't need any more from me, cause you have my contribution.
I figure anybody that wants to spend millions for a job that pays 130,000 with perks, is an idiot.
Why would I want to put more in the senate?

Thanks for the push.
I just gave $100.00 - so much is at stake.

Put up or shut up? I'll do neither, thanks. Go pi$$ up a rope. Pi$$ up a rope, BUMP! If I opened my wallet everytime one of these RINO bozo's came begging, which BTW is a constant thing, I'd be broker than I am. They gave themselves raises during this economic "slowdown", let them donate to themselves. Only a fool would give hard earned money to millionaires. Blackbird.

Spoken as someone who truly does not understand the system at all. Each elected official in Congress has dozens of paid aides. If an incumbant loses his seat, guess what? The old aides become the new aides. Congress cannot become "fresh" by voting out incumbants, it can't become "fresh" at all due to the sheer size and volume of the rules and procedures. Aides are needed to guide Congressmen and Senators through the maze of protocols and issues, and only through experience serving in Congress does the reliance upon those un-elected rulers become lessened.
Throw out the incumbants! Term limit Congress and the Senate!
With that battle cry you give the reins of power to the un-elected rulers of D.C. and make elected officials figureheads of our government.
Our goal should be to make sure that there are more liberal (i.e. Democratic) aides working at Starbucks waiting for the next election cycle than there are conservative (i.e. Republican) aides doing so. If you don't believe this is the truth, then you do not understand Washington, D.C.

Who says I don't?
I won't come on the internet & broadcast
my noble cause though. Some of us don't
need to show how much we care publicly.

I have given in the past and it's apparently never enough. They will call you EVERY night even when you tell them you HAVE already given. Telephone solicitation at it's worst.
