Maybe RINO Fraud palin will get the hint..
Oh well, shit. according to the list I’m seeing above she’s doing ok.
But at 71%? Yeah, she’s a monstah! Burn her! We need someone more like 31%. A true republican RINO. LOL.
She’s doing better than J-Linds, McCain and Flake.
The tears Trump is going to cause the left is immeasurable. I love it. I just wish I could capture their tears so as to bottle them and sell.
Her rating is low compared to what I’m reading about her on the issues.
Maybe there is a rogue misstep here and there that I’m not seeing.
But for the most part she’s not at all like what I was told Trump was going to be doing with his cabinet.
According to some slobbish, dimwit editors, Trump was supposed to appoint liberals to prominent posts, keeping in stride with his “liberal, New York values, progressive bona fides.”
This Rodgers lady is WFB compared to what I was told to brace myself for.
I couldn’t find any issues on which I disagree with her.
She seems OK, considering the world we live in. She takes a “let’s have less of this” stance on issues that I’d prefer to eliminate entirely, but I know my preference ain’t gonna happen. So, again, she seems way better than average, and I’m with BFH in not understanding those rating given her record.
The Dept of the Interior includes. . .
Bureau of Indian Affairs
Bureau of Indian Education
Bureau of Land Management
Bureau of Ocean Energy Management
Bureau of Reclamation
Bureau of Safety and Environmental Enforcement
National Park Service
Office of Surface Mining, Reclamation & Enforcement
U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service
U.S. Geological Survey
I didnt realize it encompassed so many “bureaus”. Loads of places to start cutting.
Hey, if it upsets the Libs then she must be doing something right. I especially like the fact that she supports a cross state standard for concealed carry. If I qualify for a driver’s license in my state and can drive legally in the other 49 states (or is it 56?), then I should be allowed to legally carry a fire arm in the other states if I am licensed in mine.
But then according to the Second Amendment, I shouldn’t have to ask anyone’s permission to carry a firearm to protect myself.
She is my Congresswoman for the 5th district here in Eastern Washington. My daughter also worked for her for a year and a half or so as a paid staff member before going to graduate school. I personally like her but she’s also been a congress critter for 12 years now and just won reelection for a sixth term in November. And I believe it’s time for her to move on, we need new blood here as our representative in Congress, I believe she’ll make a very good Sec. of the Interior. But as I write the cruds are already coming out of the woodworks trying to replace her, our City Council President Ben Stuckart, a left wing loon with an enormous ego wants her seat. God forbid the guys an ecoweenie par extraordainaire, I don’t think he has much of a chance. And I heard that our local Sheriff Ozzie Knezovich wants to run as well. I hope that there are better choices because neither guy are people I like a whole lot. We shall see and hopefully we’ll get a good congress critter to replace Kathy McMorris Rogers.
What are we waiting for? Sign her up!
She was a Boehner lapdog.
