Time to Vote Out Texas Congressman Jeb Hensarling (Vanity)
May 10, 2008 | no dems

Posted on 05/10/2008 5:13:17 PM PDT by no dems

If Jeb Hensarling (R) of the 5th Congressional District of Texas, is your Congressman, I hope you folks will throw his sorry a** out of office in November.

WHAT A LOW-LIFE SCUMBAG. Lou Dobbs just tore him up and the pollitical whore sat there with that crap eating grin on his face and REFUSED to stand up for consumers against the credit card companies. He has been bought off by the major credit card companies. I thought Lou Dobbs was going to reach through the monitor and punch him in his lying mouth.

BTW, they used to prescribe personal indenture for credit problems.

I'm sure you'd thrive under that system. I'd let you sleep in the pantry if you were good.

Anybody but Hensalring ~ except Moran.

There's a certain crowd in Congress that make me feel sick ~ they're in it.

BTW, the crazy woman Byrne is setting up to run in this district. Everyone in the district should get busy to oppose her.

Go Hensarling! Lou Dobbs is an idiot when he’s not talking about border security.

See, I've said ever since '06 that most Pubbies are just as sorry as the DemocRATS. This is further proof. Just line my pockets and the American people be damned.

More and more each day, you see how many republicans are owned and control by the chamber of commerce and the K street lobbyists. But they will need to get elected and it will not be with my vote, Republicans have no spine.

LOL, thanks, you are too kind.

Of course, not being an irresponsible friggin idiot with no self control, I wouldn't find myself in such a situation.

No way we will let Jeb go!! Unless Virginia and Texas form a coalition.

My heavenly days..people with good credit get a break. People with bad credit pay a price?? How fair is that? Credit card companies trap people??

Sure, some people hit on hard times. But an awful lot of people are just irresponsible.

Yep. And Lou Dobbs is all for the government saving people from themselves yet again.

No, CC companies did not hold guns to the people's head but they darn sure changed the rules in the middle of the game. Unfortunately, not all are as fortunate as you seem to be. There are millions struggling and NOT all are to blame for their financial problems.

Credit card companies have been changing due dates without notice, they raised interest rates - without notice, and the list goes on.

I believe in Capitalism, but putting the screws to hardworking American people with the help of the elected officials is absolutely unacceptable.

Do you not understand what he is saying, or you advocate the government regulating credit and consumer choice?

To be honest, I WISH we had someone like that in my state.

From your tag line...Facts are stubborn things..

You are correct, not all consumers are responsible for their circumstances. But, if you look at the majority???

But sadly, the CC companies have been stuck with the debt of people not able to meet their obligations. So it is passed on to others in many ways. We all pay whether we are at fault or not.

If you borrow money, you are at the mercy of the lender.

So therefore, we condemn democrats for voting against drilling in ANWR and forget that McCain voted with the democrats on ANWR?

I agree with you, thus the point to place regulations on thieves. Many of the CC companies are nothing more than legal con artist and legal loan sharks protected by the very people we placed to represent us (we the people), all the while, the elected officials continue to line their pockets at the expense of their constituency.

BTW, I'm tougher than you. I evaluated the appeals of large dollar value debtors to a US government agency. They were usually liars and owed the money. It was rare for anyone to escape my attention.

But is the Postal Service truly a US government agency?

I’m not sure how elected officials line their pockets Re: credit cards.

I guess one really doesn’t have to have a credit card..?

I am very much against government intervention to protect (we the people).

Possibly the FReepers are starting to see that the whole CONgress is comprised of mostly whores & they will still keep voting them back in.
