That is the bottom line. How many of you would, if you actually owned a business, as opposed to blogging all day, employ a family member? I'm sure many of you would. I'm tired of people bashing Burton for things that happen to him in his personal life. I think he's done a great job for the State of Indiana. Campaign money is different from taxpayer money. I for one, appreciate Burton's voting record to lower taxes and help small business owners. Keep up the good work Dan!!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12703782.post-62797168048568368792007-06-20T06:40:00.000-05:002007-06-20T06:40:00.000-05:00Sure thing.

I love how people get on here and complain about the people of Julia's district being a bunch of sheep for continuing to vote her into office, and yet Burton's district of voters in a much higher socioeconomic bracket get a free pass. Whether you're Red or Blue, Burton is a pig and an embarrassment to our state.Russhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11160731577636478647noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12703782.post-1597195515252119362007-06-19T10:47:00.000-05:002007-06-19T10:47:00.000-05:00Dan Burton is a great congressman! He has been a champion when it comes to family issues, he respects and appreciates small businesses, he has sided with taxpayers on many crucial issues, and he has worked to cut back on much of the wasteful spending that occurs in DC. This is exactly the kind of Congressman I want representing me.
