The Part That Frightens The Hell Out

I'm Addicted To The Internet. I Admit It. It Has Transformed The Way I Work As A Senator, Communicate With My Children, And Keep Tabs On News And Cultural Developments.... The Internet Is A More Direct Communications Link Between Legislators And Their Constituents....i Constantly Work At Fusing My Senate Work Into My Office Home Page To Make It As Useful, Timely, And User-friendly As Possible For Vermonters And Others Who May Visit.....i Look At My Web Site, As My 24-hour Virtual Office, Where Visitors Can Send Me An E-mail Or Search For The Information They Need Anytime, Day Or Night.

We Have A Whole Lot Of The President-elect's Nominees That Have Not Filled Out Their Ethics Disclosures. I Can Never Remember A Time When Anybody Was Voted On For A Cabinet Position Who Hadn't Completed Their Ethics Report, And Certainly Nobody Should Be Allowed To Vote Until That's Done.

For The Church To Say That Abortion Is Not Acceptable For A Catholic Is Fine. To Say Directly Or Indirectly That On Something That Is A Church Teaching That You Must Also Vote According To That - That's Not Acceptable In A Country Based On The First Amendment.
