The questions you'd ask your senator.....

After attending a luncheon with my senator I queried others asking what
they would ask, given the opportunity to do so.

Here are the replies I want to share with you. With minimal editing, these 
are the submissions, which I will also send to select US senators. These
replies from people living in different states.

Thanks for your participation,
Tony


Here's assuming one gets an honest answer:

1. Is there a reason why you don't answer your phone?
2. Is there a reason why all your calls are diverted to assistants who then decide what to do with the message?
3. How much money do I have to donate to your reelection campaign in order to be able to talk to you?
4. What's the "Real" reason you decided to run for office?
5. What do YOU believe you were hired to do?
6. Do you ever really give a damn about the issues a constituent puts before you, or do you just wait for them 
    to finish talking and then carry out the promises you made to the lobbyist that paid you?
7. What is the determining factor for you to carry a bill?
8. Do you realize how unmitigatingly arrogant you really are?

When will they stick to their conservative principles
and stop compromising with Liberals, who never compromise 
with conservatives.  We don't want RINO's. 

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

How much do 59 Tomahawk missiles cost? Spend that money on a toll free 540. No toll
roads in NC. Spend US taxpayer dollars on USA infrastructure not bombing a Syrian airport.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Why won't you cooperate with Republicans?  And why do you move in lock step with your
party leaders  instead of thinking for yourselves.

However, I would not cross the street to see any of the Hawaii delegation.  I am thoroughly 
disgusted with what they are doing and with state and city politicians too.  Our state legislative
body has 3 Republicans in the house and no Senate Republicans.  Our mayor just thinks of
more ways to spend money and thinks nothing of how he will pay for his bright ideas. I have 
hope for the country but no hope for Hawaii unless people wake up and dump the whole lot
of our politicians locally.

Tom Cotton of Arkansas  
Why didn’t you smack Schumer upside his​ head 
when he  challenged you on the Senate floor?

John McCain
I very much respect and honor your service. I used to like you. 
 I want to like you.  But you broke my heart sucking up to the 
media and going rogue, then losing to Obama and not supporting 
this president.  What’s  up with you?

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Mu question: What efforts are being made to cut back waste, fraud and abuse and balance
the Federal budget as oppose to just re​-​position​ing​ the deck chairs?

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Why are you pressing for amnesty for illegal immigrants and more legal immigrant work visas
when our US Bureau of Labor Statistics U-6 unemployment rate is at 9% and even higher for
low-skilled citizens.

Have you studied the Constitution and all the Laws emanating from it?  If so why does the 
Senate have so many Rules that are not truly spelled out in the Constitution?  Is the Senate 
able to function solely without all the Rules and use the Constitution as its guide?  Finally, is 
the Constitution not a complete document?

Why don't Republicans have a healthcare plan ready to replace Obama Care?
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
When are you and the rest of the senators going to stop playing politics and start doing
something for America and not just for your party or personal gain?

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Below are a few questions I might ask:

 "I know there are various groups within the Republican Party from very conservative to not 
so conservative.  However, WHY won't the Republican Party Senate and House unite behind
our Republican President???"

"Why can't you stand up for what is RIGHT for America and NOT only what is right for the
Republican Party???

"Do you believe November election was a mandate to the Republican Party?  If not, why not???"

"A  lot of whiney, snowflake Democrats need to be told to go suck an egg. Do you have the gumption
to tell them that??"

"What is more important to you???  This country, or your job??"

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Why do you want to coddle the Democrats by reaching across the aisle?  The Dems didn't vote
for you, nor will they ever vote for you.  They rarely, if ever, reached across the aisle to you when 
they were in the majority.  Plus, you've already given in to them far too often.  If nothing else, this
 last election the PEOPLE told you we don't like the Dem way.  DID YOU LISTEN??  

Do you have the intestinal fortitude to tell the Dems to get on board or get out of the way??"

As you can tell, I'm not too pleased with our two Senators.  I believe they are in bed with special
interests and only come out to play when they wish to be re-elected.  I believe them both to be 
RINO's who talk a good game, but don't play the game they talk.  

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Tough one.  It would be how’s it hanging or why don’t you use credible efficiency experts to actually
evaluate what the value of the department is vis a vis its charter to the taxpayer.  Also I would, from
a budgetary perspective, vet the $ in a given budget and if they are value added. 

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Screw the questions.  I want to tell them to repeal the Fascist monstrosity called Obamacare and
replace it with market based  solutions that allow anybody to purchase health insurance across state
lines and that allows insurance to be portable.

Free the health care industry from the shackles of intrusive government. That said, if there is a question
it would be "Why the hell not do it?"

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"why is it you campaigned on  getting rid of obamacare, yet have done NOTHING to achieve that. 
Why are we paying you a salary? Perhaps to just sit "there"....twideling your thumbs!!!  Or perhaps 
to enhance you financial portfolio due to "insider trading"!!!

Will you do as you promised, and FINALLY leave. You have accomplished absolutely ZILCH for
citizens of NC in 20 years, yet we have PAID for your 11 trips to Europe, and we didn't even get 
a post card!!! Talk about GOVERNMENT WASTE!!!

blunt, to the point, but DOUBT either if these jackasses has a clue how despised they are....you
won by name recognition  ONLY!!! now you want to run for governor, sure, he'd be perfect "matching 
book end" for the mentally challenged guy we are stuck with now!!!!

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The same thing I already him.  That I spent a large part of my military career defending 
the sovereignty  of nations (including combat missions) that hate us; Saudi Arabia, 
Kuwait, United Arab Emirates and I wonder why the  anointed in Washington DC will not
lift a finger to defend our own sovereignty.
