How many members of Congress does Huntsville need?

Congresswoman Terri Sewell is Huntsville's New BFF, Greene, Choctaw, Sumter, Marengo, Dallas, Wilcox, Perry and Hale, Jefferson, Tuscaloosa, Clarke, and Pickens counties, not so much.

After attending a fundraiser hosted for and by the democratic elite(aka deep pockets)Representative Sewell *ahem* toured Huntsville and promised support for defense contractors.
Mayor Battle says Congresswoman Terri Sewell is Huntsville's new best friend because of her commitment to keeping NASA and Huntsville in the forefront in Washington.


That's nice, but what is she doing to help the people in her district? You know, the people who don't have deep pockets and government contracts? To para quote Janet Jackson, what has she done for them lately? According to my sources, not much.

Is Sewell signaling she will vote with the republicans (Mo Brooks included) and against her fellow Harvard Law Alums' proposed defense cuts to reduce the deficit without hurting the middle class and the poor?

President Obama entered the debate about the national debt on Wednesday after months on the sidelines, offering a plan to trim borrowing by $4 trillion over the next 12 years by combining deep cuts in military and domestic spending with higher taxes on the wealthy.

In a stinging rebuke to Republican budget-cutters, Obama acknowledged that the debt must be tackled faster than he has previously proposed, but he rejected GOP calls to make fundamental changes to Medicare and Medicaid and to scale back his initiative to expand health-care coverage to the uninsured.


So, Alabama's top Democrat is all over the Huntsville media market and not one word about WienerGate, The Bingo Lynching, the recent passage of the mean spirited, racist illegal immigration law, or the assault on women's reproductive freedoms.

The power of the press.

Kudos to you for writing this, if this would have been Aderholt LiA would have joined you but they are hacks, more than you/

You mean this Aderholt?

"As the Republican nominee, Aderholt faced a considerable challenge against State Senator Bob Wilson Jr., who called himself a Democrat "in the Tom Bevill tradition". In a culturally conservative district, Aderholt didn't hedge on cultural issues. This was a seriously contested district, receiving a deal of national coverage and significant support from the Republican Party. Newt Gingrich personally visited the district during the campaign. Aderholt won narrowly, 50%-48%, and hasn't faced serious opposition since."

The one Newt Ginrich and probably you were hacks for?
