Dino Rossi Too Nice?

Email to Dino Rossi,

I am an independent. Your website does not mention four critical issues.

1) Do you believe all Congressional bills should have to meet the requirements of the United States constitution?
2) Do you believe in 2 term, term limits?
3) Do you believe all Senator and House members should by law be required to read and understand the bill?
4) Do you believe representatives of the people should be required to listen to the will of the people in town hall meetings?

Next:

You are too nice. Your videos do not show the excitement and the emotion that the American people are feeling who have lost jobs, lost opportunity, watched government leaders blow money we don’t have, watched billion dollar fiascos turn into trillion dollar deals as if billions were a drop in the bucket, and watched the drive to be number one be subverted by people who think we all need to cut back.

This is the time for a dynamic leader to take charge. A man or woman of principles who believes and follows the United States constitution and believes the United States is, and always will be, the shining place of opportunity in the world.

I want to see “we’re number one”, “we’re number one”.

I want to see you beat the drum of “abusive spending” by the current senator Patty Murray. Walking in “lockstep with her party no matter the consequences”. “Supporting legislation she knows is not good for the country” “The Healthcare Bill”. “Supporting legislation she knows is not good for Washington state” “Tarp and stimulus fund”. You have the opportunity to pick every wasteful spending bill she ever supported for 18 years and drum it into the Washington voters mind. You have the opportunity to stand on principles and tell us the voter what you will do for Washington state and the Country.

Please work on the dynamic part. You have the content. Does what you say really come from the heart? Every word I have written here comes from the heart.

I will not support Patty Murray, but I would like better reasons to support Dino Rossi.

Global Warming Fact or Fiction?

Whether global warming is caused by man may be debated by both sides, but the fact that the earth has been far warmer at the time of the dinosaurs and far colder during the glacial periods than it is today is a matter of scientific fact. The United States and the U.K. like to use computer models to forecast the future. The Russians like to use paleo history to forecast what warming trends or cooling trends may cause. Core samples of the earth at different warm or cold periods tell a lot about the life on our planet at that time. They also tell us about rising or lowering sea levels.

If you would like to determine whether global warming is man caused or not, please check out the resources below. By the time you have read them all, you will be convinced that we really don't know, and can't prove it one way or the other at this point.

Why not focus on energy and the benefits of unlimited renewable energy? Utilize fossil fuels, coal reserves, hydroelectric, and nuclear to keep us growing, but invest in more nuclear plants, solar technology, windmills and fuel cell technology to take us forward. According to BP experts and their latest report, the world has proven reserves of oil - 40 years, natural gas - 60 years, and coal - 130 years. At some point we will have to find other non polluting sources and make them available at affordable prices. Let's make it happen now.

The time is now to become energy independent and pollution free. Make energy our new Manhattan project, our new mission to the moon, our answer to 9/11, our answer to building jobs and stimulating the economy.

Republican Pledge To America

The Republican Pledge sounds hollow and is delivered with little real emotion. The preamble is based on our constitution and is designed to be all inclusive.
1) "A PLAN TO CREATE JOBS, END ECONOMIC UNCERTAINTY & MAKE AMERICA MORE
COMPETITIVE"
2) "A PLAN TO STOP OUT OF CONTROL SPENDING & REDUCE THE SIZE OF GOVERNMENT."
3) "A PLAN TO REPEAL & REPLACE THE GOVERNMENT TAKEOVER OF HEALTH CARE"
4) "A PLAN TO REFORM CONGRESS & RESTORE TRUST"
5) "A PLAN TO KEEP OUR NATION SECURE AT HOME & ABROAD"

Let's put some real punch in the Pledge!

1) We will hold every idea up to the light of the United States Constitution. We will not allow the Constitution or the Bill of Rights to be usurped by any arm of the government. We will represent the will of the people who elected us. We will prosecute anyone who knowingly violates the Constitution of the United States. We will be required by law to read the bill. We will be required by law to understand the bill. We will be required by law to make all bills standalone.
2) We will create jobs through an energy independent mandate. We will build nuclear power plants. We will drill for oil. We will use shale oil. We will use clean coal technology. We will use cost efficient clean solar, wind, geo-thermal,and hydro-electric. We will encourage electric car technology. We will encourage fuel cell technology. We will quit pumping 600 billion dollars a year out in the form of imported oil.
3) We will stop funding pork barrel projects for states. We will stop spending money we don't have. We will balance the budget. We will mandate the federal budget be balanced. We will stop sending foreign aid to governments not friendly to us. We will reduce the size of government. We will kill departments not necessary to the running of our government. We will give back tarp funds and stimulus money that has not been spent.
4) We will repeal government healthcare. We will offer private health insurance to all who are not able to pay the full amount.
5) We will reform Congress. We will do away with the current committee system in the House and the Senate. We will do away with seniority. We will form Committees at the beginning of each term by a vote of the current house and senate members. We will give freshmen House and Senate leaders the same chance to represent their constituency. We will set term limits at 2 terms maximum. We will require House and Senate leaders to attend town hall meetings when called in their respective states.
6) We will build a fence across the Mexican border. We will enforce our immigration laws. We will re-enact our temporary worker green card identification system. We will know every person that crosses our borders. We will prosecute every religious organization, company, city, state, or federal entity that hires illegals without a work permit. We will keep our country secure.
7) We will make Amercia the most competitive place to work. We will treat our companies like businesses. We will manage the tax climate companies are able to work in in the United States. We will be competitive with all comers. We will remain secure by returning our manufacturing capability. We will not be raped of the technology we build in the United States.

Election Commonsense

The people are fed up with their government. The question is why and what do we want changed. We want the representatives changed, but we don't want more of the same. We want people who stand on principles and follow the constitution. We want people who read the bill. If the bill is too complicated, then simplify the language and cut the size of the reading material down.

We don't need comprehensive healthcare (2000 pages). We don't need comprehensive immigration. We don't need comprehensive energy(cap and trade legislation). We don't need stimulus money thrown against the wall like a paint art project hoping something will stick and get us out of this mess.

We need jobs. We need simple solutions to healthcare costs implemented item by item. We need simple solutions in the energy arena implemented item by item. We need our congressional leaders and senators to think first about America and second about any global initiatives. What will do that is incentives for businesses to stay in the U. S., incentives for energy companies to produce cost efficient energy in the U. S. With jobs and energy in the U. S. we will be in a better position to address all of the other ills of our economy.

The government is out of touch with our primary need which is jobs. They seem to think they can write a blank check for their personal pet programs and we the taxpayer will foot the bill.

This is a republic. That means representative government. When the senators and congressmen of our country and the states scoff at the will of the people, they need to be kicked out of office. They need to be replaced by representatives who will do their do diligence before passing any bills and if we the people disagree with the direction they are headed, they need to listen. What would solve this problem? Term limits.

If you are only in office 4 to 8 years, or in the case of the senate 6-12 years you are more inclined to vote your conscience and not worry about your career election. You are more inclined to listen to your constituents, because you don't have a powerbase and economic base in Washington to get you chosen for the democratic or republican primary.

Summary:
1) Kick current leaders out of office this November.
2) Elect leaders whose campaign promise is to listen to their constituents and read the bill.
3) Focus on jobs in the United States has to be their number one promise. Not government jobs. Let businesses create jobs through incentives.
4) Set term limits. No more than 2 terms for any position.
5) Energy Independence for America now. This is the goal. Make it a reality just as we did when we went to the moon.
6) Make the United States and its interests your number one concern.
