My House Representative is

[Perky]

Poll question: My House Representative is

(just curious)

[acmavm]

1. A complete ass, but that wasn't a choice so I had to take the

fundy republican selection. Lee Terry Jr.

Anybody else wonder why his little beauty queen wifey isn't in the public's face like she was for so long? Hmmmmmmmm.

[Dem_in_Nebr.]

7. He's "mine", too.

I hope we can get him out this time. Don't Happen to know what the latest line is?

Go Jim!

[acmavm]

15. No I don't. I can't stand that guy. He's in there because of who his pappy

is/was. And all these old folks around here think his shit don't stink.

[Dem_in_Nebr.]

24. Hey, acmavm

Yep, Lee Terry is not my facorite guy either. LLike you say, it's hard to convince people of that. I've got relativess that vote pretty much the fundy ticket though and they all like him, too. Won't hear a bad word against him. Drves me nuts sometimes. At least we've got someone running against him that's getting some name recognition.

Don K.

[BurgherHoldtheLies]

2. Melissa Hart (PA04) = The female Santorum

I'm not kidding...that's her nickname.:cry:

[terrya]

3. A very progressive Dem. Janice Schakowsky Il-9th.

And I'm proud to have her serving me and her other constituennts in the House.

[abluelady]

12. I Recently Heard Her Speak

I was very impressed with her. Does she have aspirations to go farther?

[terrya]

17. I don't think so.

I think she's happy being in the House. No further political ambitions. Seems like it to me.

[abluelady]

42. Well, At Least You're One of the Lucky Ones. n/t

[mcscajun]

4. Rep. Rodney P. Frelinghuysen, conservative and wingnut

AND serving his sixth(!) term.

It is a useless exercise to write to him about ANYthing.

[Coventina]

5. What do you call J.D. Hayworth?

Is he conservative or fundy?

There wasn't an option for "bloviating idiot".

[enfield collector]

36. he's conservative. I preferred him when he did the sports cast, well

actually I thought he was a fat windbag then but at least he was mostly harmless.

[liberaliraqvet26]

6. Robert Wexler. EOM.

[filer]

8. Fundy Republican, here.

Are there any other kind in Oklahoma? Tom Cole, retarded and obedient, ran unopposed for his first term in '04. Unopposed! The Democratic Party here is a pathetic remnant of it's former self.

They are showing some signs of life this year, so perhaps there's hope.

[MsKandice01]

9. Progressive Dem here...

I've got Mike Honda. He's awesome.

[goddess40]

13. Best in show

I firmly believe that I have the best representative in Congress, Dave Obey!

[wryter2000]

10. Barbara Lee speaks for me. n/t

n/t

[rumpel]

11. Waxman

[rusty_parts2001]

14. Whats Ron Paul classified as --Kook?

[Viva_La_Revolution]

16. Wu - a mod. dem, I think

even though some of his votes make me wonder.

[GTurck]

18. Fundy Republican

My representative is John Carter of the Texas 31st District; one of the winners of Tom DeLay's illegal redistricting. He is a flunky but it will be especially hard to dump him since he delivers to his followers but not his constituents.

[newyawker99]

45. Hi GTurck!!

Welcome to DU!! :toast:

[madame defarge]

19. You left out a few choices...

- Ineffective
- Dishonest
- Liar
- Pondscum

are a few that come to mind when I think of my current representative (Kirk, IL-10).

But we're going to change that on Nov. 7 with Dan Seals!

[patrice]

20. His district is ruled by a Nazarene church-cartel. n/t

[catmandu57]

21. A rubber stamping ass kissing nazi wanna be

This is a divided district, part urban part rural, part of the urban is suburbia reptile, between them and the lemming farmers we're stuck with a incurious do nothing ass kissing brain dead major league fuck up.
Know why? chucklenutz* promised them 300.00 dollars and they squashed gay marriage in 04, the diety help us if this fool retains the 6th district this year.
If I could I move the fuck out of here yesterday.

[blue neen]

22. I don't think my rep fits any of these categories.

It's John Murtha. He's a rather conservative Democrat, but he's been doing a great job trying to get us out of Iraq.

[ktowntennesseedem]

23. Conservative GOP is about all we'll ever get in my E Tenn district.

But I'll be honest, John Duncan does earn my respect for standing up a voting his conscience, even when it means going against the rubber-stamp brigade. Granted, his conscience is usually perfectly in step with the right-wingers running the show, but he has going against the tide on more than one occasion, not the least of which was a vote against the Iraq war (something those I supported for Pres and Vice-Pres in '04 can't say!)

He gets my respect... he'll never get my vote, but he gets my respect.

[meldroc]

25. On behalf of all 4th District Coloradans, I apologize...

for inflicting the Pentacostal fundie Marilyn Musgrave upon this nation's Congress. I'm definitely looking forward to firing her this November...

PACCIONE OR DEATH!!!

[immoderate]

26. Debbie Wasserman-Schultz is my rep.

And I couldn't be more proud!:loveya:

--IMM

[havocmom]

27. A GOP lemming

There's the choice I needed. He will do/say whatever they tell him. For us at home, he is the invisible man, Hollow Man Edition.

[Ikonoklast]

28. Sherrod Brown, soon to be SENATOR Sherrod Brown

from Ohio, a true Progressive Democrat. Look up his record.

Now, be jealous.
:hi:

[TahitiNut]

29. A total Fascist (Joe Knollenberg)

While he certainly exploits fundies, throwing out little tidbits of bigotry, he's not one. There's nothing "conservative" about fascists - 'exploitation' and pillage do NOT equal "conservative."

[datasuspect]

30. is the beneficiary of a gerrymandered district in texas

they redistricted this small patch of formerly red to include parts of suburban houston (places 90 - 100 miles away).

[melissinha]

31. Fundy reptile replaced Progressive Dem through redistricting

May Tom DeLay rot in a jail cell soon for infringing upon the rights of the enitre city of Austin to be properly represented.


Man I HATE Tom DeLay!!!!!!

[Habibi]

32. The one, the only

Louise Slaughter!

[ms liberty]

33. NC 5th District: Virginia Foxx, Republicultist old witch...

in her first term...she's being opposed by Roger Sharpe, a somewhat conservative Dem. But polls seem to show her with a slight but fairly solid lead. I'm hoping we'll be surprised, but I don't really expect it.

[hack89]

34. Patrick Kennedy ...

who has been progressively more erratic - here's hoping he gets his sh*t together soon.

[rep the dems]

35. Mike Fitzpatrick

:scared:

[lpbk2713]

37. My House Rep won a recent Opie lookalike contest ....... j/k.

That's him in the middle trying to kiss Jeb on the earlobe while Krazy Katie praises Chaysuss.






(Adam Putnam)

[Tierra_y_Libertad]

38. Progressive enough to get my vote. Generally thought of as "liberal".

Brian Baird SW Washington. He plays politics but usually comes down on the left side of important issues like Iraq, Abortion, the environment, etc.

He's in the "not nearly as bad" catagory, as opposed to the "not quite as bad" DLC types like one of my senators who won't get my vote.

[MissMarple]

39. Joel Hefley

soon to be replaced by progressive Dem Jay Fawcett or Lamborn who never saw a regressive, fundmentalist issue he couldn't wave a banner for, or a fundamentalist or Focus on the Family person he couldn't suck up to. "Lamborn has godlike qualities" and "Have no candidate before thy Lamborn" are two of my favorite phrases that just about sum his hypocritcal, shallow, unethical little personhood. The dishonest, lying twit.

At least Hefley stood up to DeLay, sort of.

[StrictlyRockers]

40. Barbara Lee Speaks for Me!1

She is about as progressive as they come in Congress.

SR

[elocs]

41. I am afraid that mine is more of a DINO than a mod Dem.

At least he counts on our side of Congress.

[emdee]

43. Marsha Blackburn - a brown-nosed fundy Republican. nt

nt

[NoPasaran]

44. Lloyd Doggett

Until re-re-redistricting a few weeks ago it was wingnut asshat Lamar Smith.

[newyawker99]

46. Anthony Weiner serves my section of Brooklyn.

:bounce:

[bmbmd]

47. Three years ago,he was a dem.

Now he is a pub.
