How to locate your Senator & contact info: http://www.senate.gov/index.htm
First the obligatory titles:
U.S. Senator Blanche L. Lincoln (D)
U.S. Senator Mark L. Pryor (D)
Dear Senators,
I would like to address the fact that within your title is U.S. for United States and without the periods interjected it stands for US meaning “We the People.” In no way does it stand for your “me” factor, It’s all about the “We”factor. Now I don’t know if you realize this, but the Senate is 1/2 of its own branch of government. That would be the Legislative branch. You are not to kowtow to the Executive branch, bribed by the Executive branch, threatened by the Executive branch, or pressured by the Executive branch and its Czars and Czarinas. http://www.onenewsnow.com/Headlines/Default.aspx?id=583216 As a body, with the U.S. House of Representatives, you are equal to the other branches of government as laid down by the U.S. Constitution ( i.e.all Four – Executive, Legislative, Judicial and Grand Jury). But enough about history, on to the mystery….
Have you been listening to the will of the people who placed you into your offices? They are your employers. It’s time to do a performance review and it looks like the letter D after each of your names is about your Top score. Let’s put the theory to the test and see if you have even read the letters from your constituents just found here:

I personally have never received a returned phone call, but I do have great examples of canned email responses from your offices. You pretend to care about the State of Arkansas and the United of America but your voting records state otherwise. The only time your patriotism flows is when its nears voting day and colorful mailers overflow the mailbox, TV commercials air religiously, and you might be found at a big money making dinner or a feel good event. When was the last time either of you visited a Retirement home, a Veteran’s hospital, a classroom, a downsized company, a closing company, an unemployment office, tornado stricken communities and progress? Do you read the Arkansas Democrat Gazette? Do you want to hear the truth of how YOUR votes have created chaos?
Are you going to approve this Cap & Trade bill for popularity amongst your Congressional peers, Obama, and the Main Stream Media?
Or will you stand tall and with pride for Arkansas by denying any passage of such a ludicrous bill?
If you believe that all the spending your decisions you have allowed have been for the greater good, just look at the unemployment rate. That would make you a contributing factor of an F score in economic recovery. With a failing score, that would mean during our next election you will be fired and have to be replaced.

Thank you for making sense. Thank you for looking at what people do and not what they say. I appreciate the fact 912 Project is helping to remind people, WE have the power to change what is happening from the community level on up. AND, that the politicians are to serve us–personally, I am tired of the politicians becoming multi-millionaires in office, breaking laws, not upholding our laws, and overturning or ignoring our votes and our voices. Then, we still don't have the brains to vote them out. We listen to the presstitutes and let them make our decisions.
Today is a sad day for America, a good, honest, hard working woman like Sarah Palin stepped down, and Acorn arrranged a man–a very sick man like Al Franken to step up. 912 Project, you are good Americans. Thank you for a sane island in a sea of insanity.

Words from a small business owner: 25 years ago I held down 3 jobs, no social life for 2 years. I worked tooth and nail building the American dreamm. In less then a year it fell victim to the coruption rained down upon us like golf ball sized hail with no cover. Crooked lenders, lack of oversight,reckless spending, rewards for failed financials.I awoke in horor to bank line calls, one swift scoop of all working capital, payroll and savings taken by the fine print over the Thanksgiving holiday. Made no sense ? As time progressed I was left speechless as bail outs went to the big banks, the big autos for votes while I struggled to finish up contracts without working capital. To a forced downsizing. Laying off good family orientated folk. We had work but no loans, no lines while the banks got bailed the 25 years of vision, hard work and endless struggles seemed to flow away like a wounded bird left to die. After all I had no pool of votes to offer, no special interest to serve, just a small business providing jobs. To this date I given up writing senators, expressing without lines for small and medium size business there will be no one to buy autos, homes or consume. I to got the can response letters. They fail to see now our once stellar credit has fallen into the red. They don’t see that they keep seeding the clouds but it never rains. They don’t understand that if they seed the ground, small business, the trickle up effect of real job creation will grow our economy back to life, yet they spend spend spend while the revenue streams, small business dry up. Leading only to more layoffs, more bad debt, more foreclosers they offer up 35k ? Payroll foe what ? Two weeks ? Untill they realize that funding small business, the working class with real lines of 250k and up our once great nation will folf into a merky slush, so dark a depressuon would be a welcomed thought. Small business is not looking for a handout, just a loan. So we may rebuild America one worker at a time while we vote every single self serving blind elected official out of office ! 25 years of budgets, making payroll, growing a business, being competitive, being a family for what ? I ask you, for what ?

Palin is a quiter…just when her State needed her the most, she quit.
Congratulations to Senator Franken. Finally, the will of the people of MN is a reality. That gives the People a 60 vote Majority in the Senate finally bringing to an end any further possible Republican obstructionism.
Slowly but surely, We the People are making progress.
