Hopefully we can find someone strong for Reichert's seat....We need another Jennifer Dunn! Is there any way of knowing how many of the Microsoft Techies have contributed money to Reichert? My guess is that money talks...and these folks must have been giving a lot to him and to Obama...That's why Bellevue, MI and many places on the E'side are going left instead of right... Still from Rush's site, this site seems to be one we should check out in general... Rush has several links and pieces of info tonight that everyone who cares about America and our own future would be wise to check out, and spread the word….. rushlimbaugh.com Take Action on Taxes The new administration recently sent Congress a budget proposal that included $400 billion in new taxes and fees on the U.S. energy sector—a plan that will put an economic burden on hard-working Americans and their families. As Congress considers this proposal, it is critical to look beyond political rhetoric and focus instead on the reality behind these new taxes. Higher industry taxes would send ripples throughout the economy, discouraging business expansion, investment and job creation. They will also lead to higher costs for consumers—taking money away from American households and families. Historically, higher taxes have resulted in less domestic energy because taxes make it more expensive to expand or initiate new exploration and development programs. In today’s economy, that could stifle recovery and make Americans more dependent on other countries for our energy supplies. A majority of Americans support domestic access, and the oil and natural gas industry should be encouraged to develop our nation’s vast energy resources. This would improve America’s energy security, create jobs and provide federal, state and local governments with more than $1.7 trillion in new revenues. Let your voice be heard. Tell the administration and Congress that American families and businesses can not afford higher taxes. More at this website: energytomorrow.org
