Unfourtnetly, the yahoo's that we have sent to congress will do only what they want! They do not vote the way we want them to. The only thing I can recommend is to throw the whole rotten bunch out! They can not pass up a dollar in their pocket from any source, legal or otherwise!
Really all of them?

About This Legislation:
Washington, D.C. is often referred to as "Inside the Beltway" or
"Belly of the Beast." A more appropriate reference, however, is
"The Twilight Zone."
In 1961, there was an episode of "The Twilight Zone" titled "The
Obsolete Man." In that episode, the government finds a librarian
to be obsolete and sentences him to liquidation.
Has that eerie bit of 1961 fiction become a chilling reality today?
Congress, the president, and the Supreme Court have, with the Bipartisan Campaign Reform Act of 2002 (McCain-Feingold), found political speech by average American citizens to be...obsolete. What will government mandate next...liquidation?
On February 11, 2004, Congressman Roscoe Bartlett, along with
several other members of The Liberty Caucus, introduced the "First Amendment Restoration Act" (H.R. 3801). This legislation would restore Americans' First Amendment rights by repealing sections of the McCain-Feingold law that forbid issue-advocacy groups, such as The Liberty Committee, Gun Owners of America, American Conservative Union, Concerned Women of America and the National Rifle Association, to inform their members about important issues and votes relative to incumbent candidates during the 30 and 60 days before primary and general elections.
So during that 30-60 day period when the U.S. Congress takes a vote on abortion, immigration, gun control, United Nations, taxes, treaties, etc., we won't be able to tell you about it without committing a federal crime and risking jail time! Even a simple
E-mail alert will violate the law!
McCain-Feingold, passed by Congress, signed by President Bush, and affirmed by the Supreme Court, muzzles the average American who doesn't have a high-priced lobbyist to represent his views in our nation's capital. Under the guise of "cleaning up our political process," incumbent politicians increase their job security by making it illegal for average Americans to participate.
The Liberty Committee strongly supports H.R. 3801 and encourages you to speak in favor of this critical legislation -- while you still can. Don't let the political elite make you "The Obsolete Man."
Don't be such a drama Queen!
I agree. They have no interest in America remaining America. It's most about power and money and all about control.
