I have been receiving a lot of requests to complete political surveys as I am sure you all are. I know it's just a way to make you think you are participating in the political process but it's really just for the money. I decided with the last one I was going send a letter along with my answers, with no money.
Congressman Tom Cole:
I appreciate the opportunity of responding to the Congressional Survey. However, I think the questions are not the ones you should be asking the voters. You should have known by now why the Republican’s lost the majority two years ago. If not let me remind you. 4 years ago we expanded the majority in both houses. And the only thing you did was spend, spend, and spend. You’re EARMARK levels were only exceeded by this years spending. You lost because of the spending and the corruption within the party.
Now to the questions:
1. Did the Republican Party spend too much money on things that weren’t needed to run the County?
2. Do you think Henry Brown should fight to make all EARMARK approbations visible to the voters, especially his?
3. Do you think the rest of the S.C. House delegation should make their EARMARK approbations visible to the S.C. voters?
4. Are you satisfied with the way the Republican did their job when they had the Majority?
5. Do you think the House Republicans promoted the correct Immigration Bill?
6. Do you think that all the House Republicans should sign on and cosponsor the SAVE immigration act?
7. Do you think the House Republicans should support the Fair Tax Bill? Or at least show us what their plan is.
8. Do you think the House Republicans should send out their plan for comprehensive education and healthcare reform to the voters?
9. Do you think the House Republicans should receive any money from the voters based on job they did when they had the Majority?
10. Do you think the House Republicans should send the voters their voting and approbation spending records and ask the question on how well they did on each one?
There are plenty of other questions you should have asked us but let’s face it this is for the money. I think you guys should get serious about serving the voters putting the party before the people has gone far enough. I think you will lose more seats in the next election if you aren’t touch with the people. You should be showing us what you did, how you voted and how much you spent.
Thanks again,
