Wow, nothing like a bunch of good little right-winger's being there like jonny on the spot's to pile on an issue with their talking-point falsehoods cause the facts don't matter--they just need to do what their told. So the union's happen to back Democratic candidates and expect them to back legislation that helps the common man--it's called serving your better interest my friends. On the other side, you have corporate thugs, who bankroll lobbyist groups, that bus in folks from other districts to town hall meetings for the explicit purpose of disrupting the local politician's efforts to communicate what the Democratic plan is to the people. Labor and the Union's are the only political block that stand up for the common man and his ability to make a living wage. Take a look at the numerous pieces of legislation that the GOP has tried to pass that explicitly tries to eliminate the ability of Union's to donate monies toward political campaign's--it's ridiculous!! The downfall of this country began when Ronald Reagan used his power of office to bust the Air Traffic Controller's union. Since then, America's percentage of unionized worker's has went from 28% down to 7% nationally. And yes, we would all be better off if the wishes of this 7% were to come true!!
I don't care who needs to bendover and take it--this project needs to be completed and up and running for the good of all! You just don't quit loaning money to a job that's 75% complete, will earn it's investment over time and will stimulate the local economy when it's most in need.
Good for you Nevadan's! You may have an assclown at the helm, but he's not allowed to steer the ship into the iceberg thanks to your votes in 08' that put the right people in right places to put the cabash on da b.s.!!
American's did a pretty good job of voting out Republican clowns like this guy in the last election, but the ones that are left have been making so many headlines in the negative that it's more than obvious that there's still some work to be done! Why this moron thinks he can maintain credibility with the people is beyond ridiculous and those of you who think he serves your better interest's in the Senate despite his shortcomings really need to get a clue.

Democrats caused this problem? Took over Congress 3 years ago? Wow, are you misinformed, no maybe not misinformed--I'm thinking just plain ignorant! I'm thinking this all started almost ten years ago when an Idiot from Texas stole his second term as President, gave the tax breaks to the very rich, started two wars and had his counterparts in Congress passed trade legislation that made exporting our manufacturing base to third world countries legal. You wanna cry and wine about policy? Try calling Gov. Gibbons office and telling him to release the Stimulus monies so some of these projects in NV that are waiting for them can get going...
