Today, my US Representative, Peter Hoekstra, voted no on the S-Chip veto override. For me this vote boils down to one thing - VALUES. It sure looks like Pete values Blackwater and the defense industry. He values President Bush, even when his mismanagement of the Iraq War kills our American service people every day. It is also clear that Pete values needy children much less.
Pete and his followers can come off being pretty pious at times. They talk a lot about Christian values. I hope he takes the time to reread the words of Jesus Christ. "What you do for the least of these, you do for me."
It is time for our Congressional leaders to do more than mouth words about values while their hand is out for special interest contributions. It is time for us to elect people with real values.
I'm impressed with Scott Killips.

You are out of your mind. Pete Hoekstra is ONE of the best congressmen in the country. Check your facts, buddy.
Dean Anonymous,
Thanks for joining in on the discussion.
I followed your suggestion and checked some more facts on Pete Hoekstra. I discovered he is insisting on giving immunity to telecom companies that illegally gave away information about their customers.
And don't claim this is about national defense. It is about following the law. There are legal ways to get exactly this same material. President Bush decided to work outside the law and now wants lawbreakers to get immunity from prosecution for their crimes. This is just one of many reasons why he is one of the worst congressmen in the county.
