Bean hiding from Democrats' record

At times you wonder: What is a candidate hiding? or better yet, Why is a candidate hiding? Joe Walsh on multiple occasions has requested debates with Melissa Bean. Ms. Bean has not responded to any of these requests.

Most recently a debate was held in Round Lake Beach, all three candidates were invited but only Joe Walsh and the Green party candidate came. Why has the media been mute on this point? Why is Ms. Bean hiding? What is Ms. Bean ashamed of? Maybe it's because since she and her party took over Congress in 2007, the unemployment rate jumped from 4.6 percent to now nearly 10 percent! In the past two, years she has voted for programs that have added nearly 3 trillion dollars to the national debt.

Ms. Bean admitted to not reading but ended up voting for the president's stimulus bill as well as the cap-and-trade bill. The stimulus bill was to keep unemployment below 8 percent, which it failed to do.

Cap and trade, if ever signed into law, will cause an increase in everyone's energy bills and be a job killer.

The goodies are starting to come out on that bill.

Companies have started to reduce coverage, ask for waivers and Insurance Companies have just stopped issuing new policies.

As more of this Monster is unveiled what other problems will it cause.

Ms Bean does not care or is just plain clueless! We need a Person in Congress who will read what is put in front of them. Joe Walsh has promised to never vote on something he has not read or is not Constitutional.

Joe Walsh has promised to only serve Three terms in congress.

Joe Walsh has promised never to add an earmark to any bill.

Joe Walsh has promised to be accessible to all of his constituents, not just the ones that agree with him.

It is time for a change in Illinois 8th Congressional district.

We, in the 8th need a new person in Congress to represent us. That person is Joe Walsh.
