    What a bunch of grandstanding BS in an election year. There is nothing here that would actually do anything for the people. As far as being "bought off," yep, you bet. Let's roll up I-44 and I-70 and take them back to the Fed, along with lots of other dollars and infrastructure.
    This is just another attempt to buy cheap votes in an election year. Do something for the people or get our of the way for someone who can.

    5:45 AM: Jump right in there tiger. You've got an interesting grasp on reality. The period to file is February 23 through March 23.

    So far, seven or eight good people have come forward with a desire to serve in Congress. I can't imagine you've ever stepped forward to serve on the Extension Council, your church, the school board, a special road district or volunteer fire board, or in any elected or appointed position. But, you've got all the answers.

    Just to reply, no I am not an elected official. I am too busy working for a living. But I have served my community plenty. All I am saying is that this is a cheap stunt by politicians who care more about their names than their constituents. Vote for one of those good men or women who have thrown their hat in the ring, but who have not tried stuff like this. We will never thrive again as a country until we step up what we expect of politicians. And that only happens when we have an electorate smart enough to see through this sort of BS. 9:37 clearly doesn't make the cut. -- Tiger out

    "There is nothing here that would actually do anything for the people," states 5:45

    Providing a way for Missouri to retain states rights and create a way to reduce federal expansion does nothing for the people?

    Or, taken another way, you want the government to do more for you?

    Is it your view that this is a 'cheap stunt' instead of the legislative process with public hearings on issues the people have reported are important to them (i.e. unfunded federal mandates; the size of government; and, federal debt)?

    Get on your scooter 4:47, and continue to run down people we elect to keep track and work for us in government.

    Hey Tiger, you sound like you learn better with visuals. Check out the YouTube Randy Turner posted on this subject. Makes sense to me.

    My employer went to him on an issue that he helped resolve. No BS involved.
