Distrct 13 US Congressman Mac Thornberry was in Wichita Falls this afternoon and we got a chance to ask him about some of today's hot topic issues. Earlier we heard from the Congressman on the current health care reform bill and on sending more troops to afghanastain. We asked him about next year's election when a third of the Senate and the entire US House of Represenatives is up for re-election.

"We have government involved in more things than they've ever been involved. From car companies to banks to now health care. Energy industry through the global warming bill is still pending. And, it has a lot of people mad, frustrated and concerned and one way for them to do something with that frustration is at the ballot box next november," Thornberry said.

The government is getting involved in so many things we are becoming a police state. Make gov't more accountable with our tax dollars like no more new departments. Ive said before this health care plan is a money pit and existing departments such as medicaid expansion should be used to insure everyone has health care. I agree with Mr. Thornberry, it's time to get out and use the ballot box, people. Vote Kay Bailey Hutchinson for Gov stay conservative to keep your money in your own pocket.
