Tim Walz

Would you like a list of the pork in this bill? It would make Oscar Myers blush. Afganistan is a disaster and we need to get out of there Chris. Just think how much good those hundreds of billions could have done in OUR country. Im talking about the ones wasted in other countries and those wasted on the "recovery" act which has led to how many jobs... Read More created? Last I looked the jobless rate went above 10.2% and there is little proof it created that many jobs. Yes it created a few construction jobs in St Peter where I live, but who talks about the people who lost their jobs and business because people couldnt get to thier businesses.

You are absolutely right Charles. For every dollar spent by the government on a "tangible project" (which by the way has no long term economic benefit), how many dollars are wasted on pork and mismanagement? The stimulus was about political payback, not the economy. Remember the promise that it would keep unemployment UNDER 8%?!

Pretty disappointed about the Stupak-Pitts amendment though. :(

I am glad to write my own rebuttal in Owatonna's paper. Now I have column space.

Happy Veterans Day, Tim.

Thanks for your service, congressman Walz. And good work on reform.

Thanks for all you do!

I was a supporter of Walz. However, he decided to buck the district, the constitution, and the laws of economics this year. I am no longer supporting him and will write rebuttals on this forum directed at the lavishness known as pork barrel politics.

Owatonna's Peoples Press ran my first column disparaging the vote as unconstitutional and extremely costly.

Sounds good, Congressman! Please be sure to raise your voice for choice, though.

Sorry I couldnt make the press conference in Mankato. Worked all night and havent had much sleep in the last few days. Thanks for keeping us updated.

Thanks for voting yes on the bill!!!
