Mr. Voinovich,
Please do not support S2636. It is an irresponsible answer to an urgent problem. We need stablility, and we need to stem the foreclosure wave in this country, but S 2636 will destroy the markets and plunge us deeper into housing crisis. HUD is considering having lenders & banks order appraisals. If this happens, the overvaluation problem may self correct. Perhaps what we need are interim steps to allow lenders & banks to accept partial payments with out changing the loan terms. That could help prevent the multiple penalties on the mortgages.-Please vote no on 2636!

That could help prevent some of the multiple penalties from the defaulted mortgages.-Please vote no on 2636!
Homeland Security Satellites dangerous to all U S Citizens.
Fear has gripped the Government and many people of The United States, causing havoc among all citizens. Not in history of civilization has such atrocities been realized. Spying and torture has become a common practice to any individual not living the productive life, people who live peacefully, people who are satisfied with their lives.
Once the Government considers a person or persons unproductive, they are considered alien and a danger to the society. The government fears these people for their disrupting the overall progress of the American Way. Growth and prosperity has become a major concern to those people dwelling in luxury and vanity, while individuals who are satisfied with the common way of living are scrutinized and condemned for being lazy and indifferent to any advancement.
America is the product of devastation to the planet Earth, and to the realm of outer space. The government has sold-out to the destruction of the planet with endless violations, removing the material resources and destroying natural environment, ending nearly all ecosystems of other forms of life.
The End
Are your people hungry enough yet for the unemployment extension?? Not enough folks living in the streets or in back alleys in their vehicles? wake up and help America
I hope that you are reading on www.opencongress.org all of the THOUSANDS of comments on the two unemployment extension bills.
THESE are heartbreaking stories and mine is another one - I have worked so hard for so long and there are no jobs out there for us over 50!!!!!!
PLEASE have compassion - we are LOSING EVERYTHING we've worked all whole lives for!
Please vote in favor of H.R. 6049. If gas prices don't do it, maybe this bill will encourage people to do less driving and more cycling to and from work.
