What's the ideology of your U.S. Representative?

[mvd]

I'd put my Representative, Jim Gerlach, in the neo-con category. Not quite as bad as Bush, but follows him on most everything. I checked the congressional outlook for my district, and it just leans GOP. I'm crossing my fingers for a Murphy victory! Lois Murphy sounds like a mainstream Democrat (at least she wants Medicare to stay strong.)

[rene moon]

1. My Rep. is the most liberal guys out there.

check him out: www.house.gov/grijalva/

[TransitJohn]

2. Barbara Cubin

Bush style. Royal Bitch. Won't even send me form replies anymore. It's tough being a liberal in Wyoming.

[RichardRay]

8. Yo! Transit John!! What part of Wyoming?

I'm not talkin' to the Birdman by any chance?

The only GOOD thing about Wyoming and the House of Representatives is that we've only got one of them.

RichardRay - Jackson Hole, WY

[TransitJohn]

17. Never gone by

birdman, man. I live in Laramie. When I work, I go out to the field (geologist by trade), currently on the Mesa by Pinedale. Gorgeous.

[RichardRay]

18. OK, I know a guy here in JH who could easily

go by the moniker Transit John, and he's got the Wyoming state paragliding distance record at 100+ miles - thus 'Birdman'. I don't know his politics, so I thought I'd ask.

I feel for ya over there in Laramie, but the Mesa is pretty nice. I live in Wilson where about 99% of the other Dem's in Wyoming are located. At least we have some hope of carrying one little town at the bottom of Teton Pass!

Richard Ray - Jackson Hole, WY

19. Laramie is heavily Dem

due to the University being there, and so is Green River/Rock Springs, because of all of the unionized labor. But, it sucks knowing that our 3 electoral votes will be going the other way every four years for the forseeable future. I just hope that the general vote percentages shift a little.

[NV Whino]

3. You forgot "other"

The saying around the valley is that my rep is the best democrat the republicans have.

[mvd]

4. That would be a liberal Republican

:hi:

[davidinalameda]

5. Nancy Pelosi

what do you think

:thumbsup:

[friesianrider]

28. You're so lucky...

She's incredible!

[bo44]

6. Dickie Pombo Chairman of the Amway Caucus

Fucking little prick wants to kill the endangered species act so his rich dairy farmer uncles can sell off their land for development.

[ronnykmarshall]

7. Henry Waxman!

[BrotherBuzz]

16. Lucky you!

At times I think Waxman is the only person in Washington doing their job.

[skippysmom]

9. Solid Dem

That would be Bill Delahunt of MA-10.

[demosincebirth]

10. Fortney (Pete) Stark

Watta ya think?

[pscot]

11. Rick Larsen, 2ND Washington

Moderate Democrat reflects his district. Good on conservation and free speech issues. Shows some initiative. He's a team player in a delegation that tends to pull together.

[Buck Rabbit]

12. Earl Blumenauer, pure Portland Oregon liberal

Not even bothering with a campaign for his own re-election, he knows we'll take care of him, he is working full time for Kerry and against the ban on gay marriage amendment.

[BayCityProgressive]

13. I dont know how to classify mine

Congressman Kildee. He voted against the war and against the patriot act but he votes anti-choice unfortunately.

[oldlady]

14. Tammy Baldwin

you know...you met her in Farenheit 911! Seeing her tomorrow at the Rolling to End Poverty Bus Tour, here in my neighborhood!
peace

[DavidFL]

15. Mine, Ginny Brown-Waite (FL-5th), definite neocon

Her accomplishments to date have included rubberstamping all of Bush and the neocons' legislation, introducing a bill to disinter the remains of American soldiers buried in France after France refused to go along with the Iraq war, and she was the sponsor in the House of the constitutional amendendment banning gay marriage. Things done for her district: ZERO. I really hope she loses in November, but I haven't seen any advertising or campaigning by her opponent.

[nonconformist]

20. Hal Rogers *shudder*

Total raging neo-con. Running unopposed, too.

[Tierra_y_Libertad]

21. Brian Baird - SW Washington. Pretty solid liberal.

Voted against the IWR. Generally good on most issues. No problem voting for him.

[GlenIL]

22. Lane Evans a Progressive

In a highly Gerrymandered safe seat.

[Character Assassin]

23. Sam Farr - dim bulb interdimensionally trapped bit of blah

[TheDonkey]

24. Murtha of PA? Is he conservative, or moderate

don't hear much about him

[WMliberal]

25. I think Rep. Randy Forbes barks at the moon

His Kool-Aid is extra strength.
I'm hating living in the 4th District of VA.

[sangh0]

26. I'm confused

Mine is a repuke who acts like a moderate, but votes 100% with bush*

[friesianrider]

27. Gerlach is SATAN!

This guy looks like he's straight out of a Brooks Brothers ad and he's in his campaign commercials hauling hay around...it's HILARIOUS to see this preppy try and act like he's "just like" the rural hicks that live around here.

Where are you located? I'm in Bernville - just outside of Wyomissing/Sinking Spring. I'm not in their district though; we've got Holden where I am. Just missed the cut-off to vote for Lois. She seems really great - met her at the Edwards rally a few weeks ago in Phoenixville.

[KellyPaDem]

29. One of each

Pa a state that will vote for Kerry has one of each a Specter not good but not terrible. But just in case you like your politics with a little more hatred, religion, and nerdiness we have Santorium (sp?). That little Bigot has got to go.

[pfitz59]

30. Jay Inslee - Bainbridge Island WA (1st LD)

One of the best!

[MisterP]

31. Gary Miller's head is full of peanut brittle; fie and bah!

[Tangledog]

32. Connecticut 2nd (eastern third)

Rob Simmons is an unapologetic B*-co hawk on Iraq (but he also spent time in the military). Tends to break from the herd on social issues (abortion, gay rights, &c; they're not part of his agenda either way), and tends to make a big deal of his "independence" on the campaign trail. He voted with B*-co either 87% or 67% of the time, depending on who's counting :). In the poll I called him a "mainstream (Spector) Republican", though he's not quite as full of his own righteousness as that insufferably pompous Keystone gasheaded twit.

I've volunteered some time for his opponent, who isn't a Kucinich but has a progressive heart and a good chance to win.

[jbm]

33. Ike Skelton....

I chose 'moderate democrat' but I'm not really sure how close I am.

[jono]

34. "Baghdad Jim" McDermott - member of the Progressive Caucus

:loveya:

[since72]

36. Dana Rohrbacher

The Orange County Taliban, nuff said.

[BlackVelvetElvis]

35. Mel Watt-definatelly a liberal dem! n/t

[Maestro]

37. It used to be a good democrat in Martin Frost

Now it is this a$$hole, neo-con





Smokey Joe Barton


I can't stand the man.

[Kal Belgarion]

38. Sherry Bohlert--Liberal Republican

Sherry's a RINO. Been in congress for 20 years under the Republican label, so the moron Republicans in my district vote for him anyway. He hated The "Contract for America", and hates Bush (although he *has* to pander to the Republican base occasionally). He's the best kinda Rep I could hope for in my heavily Republican district.

[GOPNotForMe]

39. Corrine Brown!

And I love her to death! I even have a signed picture of her that my friend got for me when she was interning for Congress.

[Spiffarino]

"Chainsaw" Charlie Taylor

A lying, hypocritical, greasy, neocon if ever there was one.

Don't get me wrong, though. Taylor isn't an ideological neocon...that would imply having principles. No, Charlie is driven only by power and profit. And mostly profit.

Charlie may be one of the wealthiest people in Congress, but don't let that fool you...he really isn't very smart. In fact he's so stupid, he's afraid to debate his Democratic opponent, Patsy Keever. Apparently, Charlie is not just dumb; he's also afraid of girls.

Naturally, that hasn't stopped him from coming out with lie-filled attack ads against her. One of his "real-people" ads tells an outright lie which was debunked within about 90 minutes of its first appearance. Surprise! He's still playing the ad.

:nuke:

[yellowdog]

40. Jim Nussle

The guy sobs himself to sleep every night because Newt is gone.

[TahitiNut]

41. Joe "Goëring-Is-My-Hero" Knollenberg

Just as bad a J. D. Hayworth and Duncan Hunter

[walldude]

42. Bob Beauprez, Colorado

Total Neo-Con. Can't stand him. I will give him this though, I sent him a few e-mails and I got letters back every time, and the return letters mentioned specific things I wrote about. So at least he or someone on his staff is reading his mail and not just sending out form letters..

[BiggJawn]

43. You left out "Fascist Nazi Pig"...

I have Steve Buyer for a Rep....

[underseasurveyor]

44. 5th district of IA......Steve King (R-puke)

Because after all the torture of prisoners in Abu Ghraib by a few soldiers amounts to nothing more than "hazing."
http://www.house.gov/apps/list/press/ia05_king/pr_040513.html

Steve King sickens me.

[against all enemies]

45. You forgot -Mainstream moderate Republican -when campaigning,

but joined at the hip Tom Delay boot licker when voting. AKA Nancy Johnson- proud sponsor of the Prescription Drug Bill, 5th CT.
