What a Hack!! He made a complete fool of himself being interviewed recently on TV - Yes we have "tillable land" and "potable water" - Yes that makes up for a full-time job. He has no more concern for the middle class than any other millionare Republican. Do not be fooled! Those Irish eyes are smiling for a reason - you've just been duped into voting for Mike Kelly! <br /><br />Cheryl WistAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14858576.post-19956057313805369342012-05-29T05:51:26.705+02:002012-05-29T05:51:26.705+02:00I found many postings from "Anonymous" e...I found many postings from "Anonymous" extremely offensive. What is your beef with the Phillips name? Why drag ALL of them through the mud. They have done an enormous amount of philanthropic work in your community! Ungrateful! FYI: Not ALL Phillips family ancestors are rolling in cash, buddy!!! I'm Victor Phillips' granddaughter and believe me my parents are hard working, never asked for a handout from him. And we are not so-called Oil magnates or heirs to some crazy sum of a fortune you seem to think. As for my Uncle George, he is the kindest man you will ever know, if you'd grow up and try. And he married my Aunt out of love, not money. You have no idea what you are saying, just plain character assassination of a good, hard working, family man. He sold cars, who cares? Focus on his politics, not attacking him or his family personally.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14858576.post-69331488635968088692011-08-15T17:52:26.146+02:002011-08-15T17:52:26.146+02:00Liberalism built this country.

I would like to nominate ...Kelly dodging dialogue<br /><br /><br />I would like to nominate U.S. Rep. Mike Kelly for the Most Unresponsive Member of Congress Award. For more than seven weeks, a group of his constituents in the 3rd Congressional District has been trying to get answers from him regarding his vote on Medicare, but Kelly is nowhere to be found.<br />The measure to which I am referring is the budget plan unveiled by U.S. Rep. Paul Ryan of Wisconsin. Under the Ryan proposal, Medicare would be changed to a voucher-type program but would not impact anyone over 55 at the time of the measure’s passage.<br />Kelly doesn’t even pretend to care about his constituents’ concerns by sending a written response or even a form letter.<br />According to his staff, he does not keep regular office hours in his home district offices, and his town hall meetings are few and far between. Finding Kelly is like playing “Where’s Waldo?”<br />It might be news to Kelly, but elected officials are supposed to represent all of their constituents and care about their concerns. Kelly clearly does not.<br />During his campaign, he criticized former U.S. Rep. Kathy Dahlkemper for not holding enough town hall meetings at the time the health care bill was being considered when, in fact, she held 19 in the month of August 2009.<br />Where are the town hall meetings Kelly promised to hold, if elected?<br />It might be news to Kelly, but he was elected. So, he should come forward and give the people what they want.<br />He always says “don’t dance around me.” Well, we’re not dancing. We’re stomping.<br /><br />Jon Tirk <br />ButlerAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14858576.post-14840020954375206372011-06-23T22:23:16.697+02:002011-06-23T22:23:16.697+02:00Lawmakers’ help sought

The equipment and machinery will be moved to other Reynolds plants in the United States, and some products that were produced by the workers in Mercer County will be produced overseas.<br />Even though some of their jobs are being shipped overseas, the workers of our plant have been denied retraining under Trade Adjustment Assistance (TAA).<br />U.S. Sen. Bob Casey has been writing letters in support of the workers since Reynolds made the announcement of the plant closing. When Casey’s office was informed that the workers had been denied the opportunity to be retrained, Casey asked that the workers’ appeal be reconsidered by the Employment and Training Administration, since workers at another Reynolds facility had been certified for retraining. The circumstances at that other plant were very similar to the situation at Grove City.<br />No one is asking for a handout, just help in learning new job skills.<br />The offices of U.S. Sen. Pat Toomey and U.S. Rep. Mike Kelly have been contacted, but neither their offices nor the two lawmakers have responded.<br />The displaced workers of Mercer County deserve more than just Casey working on behalf of their interests. All of our federal representatives should be working hard for equal treatment of our workers.<br />Kelly talks the talk about wanting to bring jobs to our area but is doing nothing to help the workers in question.<br /><br />Anna J.

I like them just fine, it's the ideas of this new wave of far, far Right people I have trouble understanding. Science is bad? The wealthy have your best interests at heart? Sorry, I must be stupid because I just don't get it! Even the patron saint of Conservatism, Ayn Rand, finally broke down and went on social security, a program she wanted with all her heart to crush and throw away. If you think social security is socialism, then in the end she was a socialist. Why would you think that government is the enemy or that we are wasting money on social programs that keep your fellow citizens, possibly even your own family, from starving to death, from getting sick and dying in the streets from a curable and/or preventable disease or condition? Really, do you think it is better to build up Iraq and Afghanistan, or to even have gone to war in Iraq or Lybia and spent precious blood and treasure, when our own nation is falling into the crapper? Why? No, really, why? Why do you think Paul Ryan's plan is the best? Because it does away with social programs you hate, because you do not understand that a healthy nation that takes care of its own is a good place to live? Some scream "American Exceptionalism" and fail to realize that will soon come to mean that we are the only nation amongst the industrialized nations to have a death rate almost as great as that of the poorest nations on Earth. Do we want to see the return of TB and diptheria and other diseases because we fail to provide affordable health care to everyone? I believe that if Paul Ryan and others were seriously seeking ways to bring down the debt and deficeit, they would look beyond the programs they target. Why do we spend huge amounts of money keeping troops in Iraq and Europe? Why do we seem to want to bomb or invade anyone and everyone whom we deem unfit for running a nation? I don't like the Lybian regime, and I sure as heck did not like Saddam Hussein, but we have spent billions, if not trillions of dollars, have lost far too many lives to make those places only marginally safe or free for their people, but we have not yet spent a lot of time and effort on ourselves. Please think before you espouse causes you think are good but which are not. Think about making the USA a better place before you worry about us becoming "socialist", a word many of those screaming loudest seem not to understand at all. And if social security, medicare and medicaid are socialism, I can live with that. Maybe I can live longer because of that. Maybe you will too.
