Kay Hagan! Do what you were elected to do!!
I watch MSBNC almost every night....and several hours of the day when I'm home. I've been listening to Rachel Maddow talking about the "Conservadems" and I am really ticked off.
In case you don't know....this is a term to represent a group of Democrats who are attempting to undermine President Obama's agenda. At least in my case, and I think in most others, these people were elected because we wanted a change.....and they promised to help pass President Obama's agenda....an agenda he was quite clear of during the campaign. They cannot possibly say they were not aware of what Mr Obama wanted to accomplish!
Right now I am really upset. I voted for Kay Hagan in North Carolina because I wanted to elect someone that was in agreement with what was supposed to be a change for America. If I wanted business as usual, I would have voted to retain Mrs Dole. If I wanted to continue the Republican agenda of cutting taxes and then slashing public programs I would have voted for Dole.....but I wanted someone who believed as I did. I wanted someone that would work to change the way our country is run!
Kay Hagan ran as a Democrat. She repeatedly stated that she represented change. She repeatedly told us that she would follow the President's agenda. She did not run as a conservative, fiscal or religious!
There is an online petition to call for these so-called Conservadems to change their ways.....find it here: CONSERVADEMS You Should Be Replaced! and please pass it on!
Oh yea....here's a list of the Conservadems. If you voted for one and are angry, sign the petition and give them a call:
TOM CARPER (DE)
BLANCH LINCOLN (AR)
MICHAEL BENNET (CO)
MARK BEGICH (AK)
KAY HAGAN (NC) (CALL: 202-224-6342
