McCotter does NOT Rock
“McCotter Rocks” is a newly created site in praise of the 11th District Congressman essentially to help bolster the re-election chances of Michigan’s most vulnerable incumbent Congressman. Representative McCotter argued passionately last fall that Republicans lost big in November 2008 because they “lost their way” by supporting things such as the $700 billion Wall Street bailout.
But for someone quite willing to lecture his fellow Republicans for failing to stick to their principles, McCotter seems to be more of a “do as I say, not as I do” kind of guy. Sure, he voted against both 2008 bailouts, but he was also the only GOP Congressman from Michigan to vote for card-check in 2007. And McCotter is apparently going to support the 2009 version as well. He has also voted to expand the government’s role in health care by supporting S-Chip’s reauthorization in 2009. This after saying on October 3, 2007: If the GOP doesn’t battle Dems on SCHIP, the party will “not only lose the next election. It will lose its soul.” And of course McCotter was arguably the most outspoken advocate of the domestic auto industry receiving a “bridge loan” from the federal government. RLCMI would suggest that the fine Congressman take a little of his own advice, “seize freedom” and start anew with a better voting record.

I dare you to find one politician who’s served a few years that has a ‘perfect voting record’. Let’s don’t pick on Thaddeus who is about the only one who fought loud and tough against Obama Care in Congress - there is a video of it on You Tube. He attended our Tea Parties and is actually on the side of the people.
I think he’s a great Representative and so do all my friends.
Perhaps you should look at HR 5108 (2009-10) The Cyber Privacy Act, to prevent websites from publishing “information about an individual” (Maybe Mr McCotter’s voting record?)
or
HR 3501 (2009) The Happy Act, makes pet expenses tax deductible (Mr McCotter must have gotten a big donation from the Humane Society)
Both pieces of legislation introduced by…guess who…..Thad McCotter!
Surely our Congressman can find a better way to waste his time and our money. You’re right, no legislator is perfect, but Congressman McCotter needs to concentrate on meaningful legislation. Its time to stop listening to his poetic speeches and rock band music, and start paying attention to his legislative skills (or lack thereof) and his voting record!!!!
visit http://www.campaignforliberty.com to view his miserable record. It you can tolerate the truth!
I just hope Thaddeus is more diligent this time around in looking at the Constitutionality of teh bills before he votes on them. Because we will be watching him.
