The recent passing of HR 3962 is the most irresponsible act of Congress in our history. It is unconstitutional and a real threat to our liberty. It is our moral obligation to vote anyone who supports this bill out of office in 2010 and 2012.

It's about time that the special interest groups with all of our money at their disposal lose the ability to control the public and their fortunes. Next we should go after Wall Street and the big banks who use us as puppets and enslave us for their own personal gains.

The President spent part of Wednesday spouting lip service to our vets. Then on the same day announced that he does not accept any of the Afghanistan options, and will further delay making any decision on troops.

I would just like to thank Bill Foster for being so ignorant and uncaring as to vote for a health care reform plan that will bankrupt this country.

Richard Cohen's article about Sarah Palin, was in my estimation in poor taste and roared from the Left. Why can't he say, "This the voice of the Left?"

Well, Bensenville Village President Soto is the latest lilly-livered official to roll over for King Richard of Chicago. Now the pollution-belching airport will intrude farther into our suburban neighborhoods.

Dear U.S. Rep. Peter Roskam, I am very upset to learn you voted against the Affordable Health Care Act for America. I fear you have aligned yourself with the insurance companies rather than the people in your district.

I am writing to thank Congressman Mark Kirk for voting no on the $1.2 trillion government health care takeover bill. While I am proud of every representative (Republican or Democrat) who stood up for our health care, I want to single out Congressman Kirk for special praise.

Here in Illinois we have a new, almost empty, prison that costs taxpayers millions of dollars. If this is turned into a federal prison, with a small section used by the defense department to house Guantamo Bay prisoners, it will create sorely needed revenue for our state and create about 3,000 jobs in an economically depressed area.

There's only one thing dumber or more unstable than the idea of trying enemy combatant terrorists in New York. It's those who are stupid enough to believe the liberal propaganda that it is a way to showcase our noble and perfect justice system to the world, that stands in awe of it.
