Pssst.. Hey Blue Dogs! Listen up! Your constitutents are NOT corporations
but the people of the district/state you represent.

Got it?

Good.

Now do your job, or risk being thrown out in '10 or whenever your term is up.

1. Check out Arkansas
That state has run out of stupid signs.

The problem for many of them is not corporations.

http://www.fayettevilleflyer.com/2009/08/25/less-than-half-of-arkansans-think-obama-is-a-us-citizen/

"..poll conducted by publicpolicypolling.com released today revealed that less than half of Arkansans think President Barack Obama is a citizen of the United States. Just 45% of those polled believe that Obama was born in the US, with 31% stating they believe he was not, and 24% answering “not sure.”

55% of the respondents also said that conservative talk show host Rush Limbaugh’s vision for the country is better than Obama’s, in spite of the fact that of those same respondents, only 35% of them have a favorable opinion of Limbaugh, compared to 44% “unfavorable."

This state also gives the highest rating to their Dem Governor, 68%; who has his own health care reform proposal that includes many of the policies in "Obamacare". And more of them voted for John Kerry than voted for Obama.

We've got a bigger problem than corporate money.
