Dick when are you people going to stop referring to Social Security(SS) as an entitlement!! We pay takes for both medicare and SS taxes as part of our pay each paycheck!! You spend it like it was monopoly money. There is suppose to be a Trust Fund, and the full faith an credit of the US Gov. We you guys have destroyed that and have gone as far as saying "No Problem, Let our Credit Rating go to hell, it does not mean a think. Well it does mean something to Americans who work for their money and get shit on for not being rich enough not to need to borrow. Get to work or we will VOTE YOU OUT !!!

When is government going to do something about banks selling Foreclosed Houses for what they are owed instead of close to market value? Not only does it depreciate the home values but any equity in the house is lost!

Concerning new efforts at gun control. Government needs to remember than objects are not the problem; those who commit crimes are. I cannot remember ever seeing a gun committing a crime without being held in the hand of a criminal. Anything can be turned into tool of evil when in the hands of those who would commit an evil act.

You're not going to miss a chance at taxing, are you? The IN and WI lawmakers WORKING in IL are subject to IL state TAXES.

Senator,

You must be aware the American people are not happy about the runaway spending being supported by both Republicans and Democrats. I for one will not support this behavior due to the fact I, and most of my family and friends don't have the ability to write checks we don't have cash to cover. This is simple math to a normal person like me but I am starting to wonder if there's a different way of adding back in DC?

Senator DeMint sponsored a spending reduction package this week with two items our Elected Officials need to agree to:

1. Ban congressional earmarks for at least one year so lawmakers can begin to break their addiction to pork-barrel spending.

2. Pass a Balanced Budget Amendment to the U.S. Constitution forcing Congress to balance the federal budget each year.

Will you support these two solutions that I think are the key first step in solving our problems. Come on now, deep down you don't think that spending even more money is going to help us do you?

Senator, I have a way for you to survive the Health Care trap that you are walking into. Here's the plan. Reduce the plan to enact it in just one state. Run it the way it is written for 24 months in your State and then after it has been proven to do what it is being promoted to do take it Nationwide! Would you be willing to do this?

Oh no! Unfortunately I'm in his state (unlucky me) and the dems from IL never listen to anything other then their party line. Being a Republican in IL is like being in hell.

DIITTO THAT!

Senator, What are you doing today to help keep and create new JOBS? All of the other issues for consideration in Washington DC don't matter to me!
