Carson if she lives long enough to run again. Tully and his ilk are complicit in getting her re-elected time and time again. For him to now criticize her in this manner is pure hypocacry.<BR/> She is our "representative", Matt, because of you and others who put their political partisanship ahead of the good of this community.<BR/> Where was this critical analysis before the election???Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12703782.post-43528392326025169542007-02-12T22:04:00.000-05:002007-02-12T22:04:00.000-05:00Amy H: Agreed.

If your party doesn't have a candidate you feel will represent your wishes in government, why vote for them? Last election I voted Democrat, Republican, and Libertarian. <BR/><BR/>I'm glad you don't censor Wilson. He always provides me with entertainment. Not sure why the Democrats don't shut down his mouth because he can't possibly be helping them, but then they also let Carson ramble on.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12703782.post-46601157224728773502007-02-11T11:47:00.000-05:002007-02-11T11:47:00.000-05:00The election was 3 months ago!

Julia Carson [D-IN]: I do thank you very much, Representative Davis, for your courtesy and your indulgence, especially being from Illinois, the Chicago Bears. And the Bears have been overcome by the Colts. If you watch the Animal Planet channel, you can see that the Colts are not to be pushed around. So I want to thank you very much for your courtesy.<BR/><BR/>I come to the floor today to join my colleague, Danny Burton. We have contiguous districts. I am fighting over mine because the Colts' headquarters and the team is in my district, but I am sure he doesn't mind that at all. I heard the wonderful remarks that he made yesterday about the Colts, about Tony Dungy and Bill Polian and Jim Irsay. I want to thank him for it.<BR/><BR/>I come today to congratulate the Indianapolis Colts, who are in my district. See, we have good things in my district. They are not all drive-by shootings. The Indianapolis Colts have made us extremely proud. Here is a man, Tony Dungy, who incurred major tragedy, who hung out about a week or two, and then he came back and got back on the plate. I admired him for that. He sets an example for a lot of our young kids to follow that your setbacks can be your setups and your stumbling blocks can be your stepping stones.<BR/><BR/>Tony Dungy was determined to lead. He lead in a very positive way. He could have stayed out, moaned and groaned about what had happened, but he didn't do that. He incurred his spirituality and kept on moving.<BR/><BR/>I heard somebody mention the NASCAR a few minutes ago. We lost Paul Dana in NASCAR out in Indianapolis, and he fought successfully to get race cars to use ethanol. In 2008, all the race cars of NASCAR will be fired up and fueled up by ethanol. I want to be sure and mention that.<BR/><BR/>I rise today to recognize the Indianapolis Colts, the Super Bowl champions. The path they took was not easy, but they made it look easy because they operated as a team. I think that is an illustration of what we can become if we operate in unison as a team. When one member faltered, two others would be there to fill the gap. And after a long season, they filled the gap on a rain-soaked field in Miami to claim the title of world champions. Tony Dungy, game MVP Peyton Manning and Robert Sanders have all earned the title of champions.<BR/><BR/>I am proud that Indianapolis was represented by a very classy team with character. In a day when so many athletes are questionable examples, this team shows that you can be an active citizen and a winner at the same time.<BR/><BR/>This is a championship of firsts. This is the first Super Bowl win for the Indianapolis Colts, and the first time an African American head coach led the team to an NFL title.<BR/><BR/>Congratulations, Indianapolis Colts, and team owner Jim Irsay and President Bill Polian and all those who have supported this team through the years. I want to thank Lovie Smith, class act; Chicago Bears; and all my friends in Chicago for a wonderful Super Bowl.<BR/><BR/>You go, Colts.<BR/><BR/>I yield back to Danny, and I won't take my district away from him right now.<BR/><BR/>Thank you, Mr. Burton.<BR/><BR/>Translation? Julia must go!!!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12703782.post-42980631486140734462007-02-11T11:11:00.000-05:002007-02-11T11:11:00.000-05:00Old NEws paper clippings Wilson ?
