Does anyone else notice the lack of Democrats that are listed?

Where the hell are the representatives from Idaho!? I am so damn sick of my "conservative" reps here!? A$$holes!

Sybolic only.
As long as a dem is in control of anything, this legislation will go nowhere.
It would be great, but it won't go anywhere.

 

[Scott]

Montana has got ONE on there....so far. YEAH RIGHT. He's going to be the only one sponsoring that one. LOL.

 

[ccoleman77]

I'm fairly surprised non of Wyoming's are on there. IMO they do a very good job in most instances and this aligns with their views

I had the exact same thoughts as i looked at the list.

The US is a corporation. Even if the government doesnt have stock or work for the corporations, all the congressmen and representatives work for the corporations.

Democrats = Republicans

they are the same party
