| Lars F . | Charlotte, NC | December 5, 2008 | We need someone in the Republican Party and the U. S. Senate to stand up against Senator Christopher Dodd, who is at the center of the problem for creating the banking and mortgage crisis along with Representative Barney Frank and remains the Chairman of the Senate Finance Commmittee and has not recused himself from that position, and that person seems to be Senator DeMint. |
| Charles S . | Onalaska, WI | December 5, 2008 | x |
| Gerald C . | Santa Cruz, CA | December 5, 2008 | We need common sense and respect for the taxpayer in Washington. |
| Steve H . | Hazelwood, MO | December 5, 2008 | It is time to CONTROL spending and BALANCE the Budget. Can't people see that sooner or later our society will COLLAPSE under the weight of it's own DEBT!!! |

| C. B. M . | Sun Lakes, AZ | December 5, 2008 | Those of us that are stuck with two houses in a dead real estate market--and the double bills that go with that--and investments worth half their former value that we worked all our lives to accumulate, are sick and tired of so-called 'bailouts'. We've had enough of politicians spending OUR money to fix the mess THEY made to be 'kind to the poor.' They are making us ALL poor! Subsidies or BAILOUTS just encourage MORE bad behavior. If you want more of something, subsidize it. If you want less of something, tax it. Maybe we should TAX all THOSE IN CONGRESS for creating the mess we're in. Jim DeMint will, hopefully, stop the runaway spending in Washington. |
| James & Eleanor W . | Hudson, IA | December 5, 2008 | x |
| Kevin & Diana O . | Las Vegas, NV | December 5, 2008 | It is imperative that true, principled conservatives be appointed as members of committees. All need to abide by our Constitution of the U.S. |
| Mark F . | Lynnwood, WA | December 5, 2008 | Senator Demint is the conservative Republican leader that this country needs on the finance committee, if we're going to get serious about reining in pork barrel spending and reforming failing entitlement programs. This is the part of the Republican message that was lost in recent years, and that grass roots Republicans and independent voters can get get behind, if there are serious minded leaders in Congress like Jim Demint. |

| jim (libertystudygroup@gmail) m . | charleston, SC | December 5, 2008 | "End all unconstitutional Federal Departments NOW!", is the only sensible rally cry - any other is less than honest in it's demand. However, in practice, after the moment of such a decision it would take a decade (or more) to completely wind up all such operations completely. |

| Donald V . | Corinth, MS | December 5, 2008 | Sen. DeMint is the kind of leader we need on the finance committee. |
| Monica B . | Fresno, CA | December 5, 2008 | Senator DeMint is a wise choice for the Senate Finance Committee. We all need someone who remembers the taxpayer and cuts wasteful spending and remembers the boundaries set by the constitution on our government. Our country needs it, we need it, our children and grandchildren need it. |
| Gloria B . | Canton, GA | December 5, 2008 | Please appoint Senator DeMint to the Senate Finance Committee. We need someone to fight for taxpayers fiance protection. |
| Shulan L . | Dublin, OH | December 5, 2008 | x |
| Deborah C . | Mercersburg, PA | December 5, 2008 | We need people like Senator DeMint on our Finance Committee.I would like to see "The Full Story" of our national financial crisis exposed,and the guilty parties doing time in prison.This nation is more important than the pleasure of the agenda driven,power maniacs.Save the best Nation on earth for our children and grandchildren. |
| Richard M . | Davidson, NC | December 5, 2008 | Sen. DeMint is one of the few conservative voices left in the Republican Party. He should be given a leadership role to get our party back to it's core conservative values(which does NOT include bailouts)! |
| Jim G . | Douglasville, GA | December 5, 2008 | Dear Senator McConnell, Put Senator Demint on the finance committee. And next time you see senator John McCain tell to stay on the other side of the isle the next time he crosses it to shake hands with the liberals. Jim |
| John S . | Springfield, VA | December 5, 2008 | Please add Sen. DeMint to the Finance Committee. |
| Marilyn D . | Celina, OH | December 5, 2008 | Senator McConnell: Please appoint Senator Jim Demint to the Finance Committee. Also, it's time for all you Congressmen to ELIMINATE the huge budget deficit. You HAVE to get this country back on track. Pare down the size of government. Make a meaningful difference in the future of this country. |
| Patricia S . | Stillwater, MN | December 5, 2008 | We need people to fight the pork spending. Put Jim DeMint on the Finance Committee. |
| James L . | Corsicana, TX | December 5, 2008 | Please put Senator DeMint on the Senate Finance Committee. If we do not return to our conservative roots as republicans we are going to see our party continue to diminish in Congress. Without conservative leadership to balance the liberals, there is no balance in Congress and we as Americans are in a heap of trouble. Do what is right for the American people and for our children and grandchildren. |
| James D . | Sherwood, AR | December 5, 2008 | x |
| Ronald & Carol S . | Fayetteville, GA | December 5, 2008 | Not many members of Congress thinks of the American people who sent them to Washington when comes to WHAT IS BEST FOR THE PEOPLE or COUNTRY like Senator DeMint, therefore I hope you will appoint him the the Finance Committee. |
| Modesto G . | Cornelius, NC | December 5, 2008 | Dear Senator McConnell, the elections of 2006 and 2008 have made the need for bi-partisanship compromise moot, since overwhelming Democratic majorities in Congress make the bulldozing of an ambitious liberal agenda the path of least resistance. America needs the few of you on Congress to make taking that path, all the time, less "easy". Senator De Mint will do this, by forcing the chorus to make their case, and by forcing it to hear those who dissent. |
| Joan W . | Holbrook, NY | December 5, 2008 | x |
| stuart t . | arlington, TX | December 5, 2008 | Less Communism, more Federalism. |
| Scott L . | Riverside, CA | December 5, 2008 | Dear Senator McConnell, It is time for Republicans to return to its principles. Senator DeMint never lost his. If all Republicans had stayed with their core prinicples and beliefs like Senator DeMint, the election debacles of 2006 and 2008 would not have occurred. Please appoint Senator DeMint on the Senate Finance Commitee. |

| Robert B . | Coppell, TX | December 5, 2008 | I am a YRC Worlwide employee who is about to take a 10% pay cut. The other option is that YRC would go bankrupt now instead of two years from now. I will also be required to take a pay cut so that the Democrats can bailout the UAW. So, I will Never again buy a UAW made car. |

| rigoberto m . | orlando, FL | December 5, 2008 | Please do not bail out the car companies. All they need to do is for the CEO's to take a pay cut. Not fire thousands of people. And not bail out other big companies. Help main street. Bailout Main street. |
| Hellen R . | Prince Frederick, MD | December 5, 2008 | x |
| Stanley Y . | Staten Island, NY | December 5, 2008 | When did the Banks ever bailout the taxpayers accounts??Automobiles of today get the same or lower gas mileage than those of 100 years ago (1907 Columbia-Simplex, 25 Miles per gallon)!? Auto makers have long been in bed with Big Oil, let them choke on their own failures!! Why should responsible Citizens have to pay the tab for irresponsible borrowers?? Wall Street CEO's rip off Millions of dollars and we have to bail them out?? Congress has an unlimited credit card and every month WE get the bill!! The answer is to vote against ALL incumbents!! With a 90+% rate of return of a 12% approved Congress, we can expect more of the same Tax and Spend lunatic stupidity!! |

| Paul F . | Fords, NJ | December 5, 2008 | x |
| Steve & Cris B . | Lynden, WA | December 5, 2008 | We are very alarmed by the spending frenzy that Congress has entered into with all the "bail-outs" they have passed and are still considering. We want Congress to become more fiscally responsible and to reduce taxes on all segments of the country. We strongly urge you to appoint Sen. Jim DeMint to the Finance Committee. |

| Leo T . | Baltimore, MD | December 5, 2008 | I think it time to put real conservatives in aleadership positions in Congress. |
| Bradlee S . | Clearwater, FL | December 5, 2008 | America is all about people freely producing products and services and exchanging them with others. It is what makes a government of the people, by the people and for the people possible. Somehow that idea has gotten twisted in Washington. The idea that a class of people could survive off the production of others while producing nothing of value in exchange has destroyed other great civilizations, and could very well destroy this one. I believe Senator DeMint understands this. |

| Paul.D. W . | Houston, TX | December 5, 2008 | It is time the big spending stopped. This includes those sneaking over the borders and for those of us paying into Social Security and others receiving benefits that never contributed. If the U.S. would stop all food supplies, money & our technology give aways for at least 6 months. We then could reaccess as to who are our real allies. We wouldn't need excessive military power as thee countries without our support would not "bite the hands that feed them". I have more contributions I could offer if our Party is interested. |

| Ralph G . | Gainesville, FL | December 5, 2008 | Mitch McConnell should be on the finanace committee. |

MAKE HIM PRODUCE A REAL AUTHONIC BIRTH CERTIFIC. HE DO NOT HAVE A ATTORNEY LICIENCE IN ILLIONIS OR ANY WHERE ELSE. MAKE HIM SUFFERE THE CONSQUENCE OF A NORMAL AMERICAN ILLIGAL ILLIGAN. BE DEPORTED OR APPLY FOR AMERICAN CITISENSHIP. |
| Charles L. M . | Trenton, MI | December 5, 2008 | The GOP needs to get back to the basics of true conservative government: lower taxes, less federal spending, reform government, etc. Senator Jim DeMint would be the shot in the arm the GOP needs in the U.S. Senate in bringing sanity back to a spending-drunk Congress. He is quite articulate on the economic issues and backs it up with facts. I cannot think of anyone else among your Senate colleagues who is more deserving to be on the Senate Finance Committee and lift up the rationality of the conserevative voice. You are a great Senator in your own right, as well as being quite an effective leader in the Senate, and I do hope you will strongly consider Senator DeMint for this committee assignment. Thank you and God Bless! |
