| Mark Adkinson | Warr Acres, OK | January 16, 2008 | As someone who has worked in State government for the last 15 years, I know how important it is to get fiscal conservatives such as Rep. Flake into positions of influence so government extravagence can be reined in. |

| Denise Kuhl | Creston, IA | January 16, 2008 | One of the keys to winning the Presidency is fiscal conservatism. Jeff Flake represents that to the nation. Appointing him to this position would send a loud message that Republicans are serious about changing Washington's ways of "old".Please appoint Jeff Flake. |

| Corey Fernengel | Cincinnati, OH | January 16, 2008 | GET THE PORK OUTTA HERE |
| Barbara McArtor | Beaufort, SC | January 16, 2008 | As one of the many constituents 'back home', I sincerely hope our elected Republican members in Congress remember we want smaller government and true fiscal responsibility. I shudder to think what voters will do in this next (extremely important) election if our leaders continue to spend like a Democrat: when lines blur remember, voters may become confused on which candidates promises to believe. |
| John Demma | Chandler, AZ | January 16, 2008 | Help us stop the crazy spending in Washington! Make it Flake! Thank you |

| RJ Manning | Newport Beach, CA | January 15, 2008 | Earmarks are a breeding ground for corruption and are part of a culture that has transformed our national government into a casino for narrow interest groups. Major reform is needed to restore the credibility of the federal government that it is serving its citizens well. I registered as a Republican because it advocated limited, effective government, individual liberty and fiscal responsibility. The Reagan Presidency and the Contract with America Congress were proud times for me. However, the GOP seems to have abandoned these values. There have been numerous disappointments over the last several years as the GOP has become a second party committed to big government. My hopes are with Republican leaders such as Jeff Flake and my own Congressman, John Campbell, who work for limited government and fiscal responsibility. Jeff Flake is the Congressional leader in the fight against outrageous earmarks. Those of us who oppose earmarks do not have a voice or a vote in the House Appropriations Committee. I urge you to appoint Jeff Flake to the committee and thank-you for your consideration of my request. |
| Marius Popa | Plano, TX | January 15, 2008 | Give Jeff Flake a chance in the House Appropriations Committee! |

| Greg Perry | Mountain View, CA | January 15, 2008 | The GOP needs their brand back. Flake is a big step in the right direction. |
| Lisa Samuelson | Twin Falls, ID | January 15, 2008 | Republicans are starting to resemble Democrates. Please get back to fiscial responsibility!!! If a state cannot fund its own bike paths they don't need my money to do it!! I DO know better how to spend my own money. |
| Richard Brengman | Gardnerville, NV | January 15, 2008 | I am sick of watching "good republicans" buy office with the taxpayers money! I have been a strict republican voter for 30+ years. If Mr. Flake is not selected to help reform the pork, I will be voting independent or libertarian this election, I truly am sick of the hypocrisy on display by our so called "conservative" congress! |

| Sharon Ford | Nashville, TN | January 15, 2008 | If Republicans fail to appoint Rep. Flake to this committee then Republicans have confirmed they no longer stand for anything different than the Democrats. I have refused to support the RNC for years because they have left their principles. PLEASE for once, DO THE RIGHT THING!! Learn from the past mid-term junta. |

| Lawrence Rutherford | Animas, NM | January 15, 2008 | As a former Barry Goldwater worker and also supporting Ronald Reagan's successful bid for governor of CA. and of course, his very successful presidency, I only have one comment concerning the present Republican congressional group...ENOUGH IS ENOUGH. I am a conservative and I'm tired of Congress trying to run my life and steal my money. My wife and I consider ourselves Independent voters in this election. |
| John Biddle | Clearwater, FL | January 15, 2008 | The Republican Party needs to return to being the party of limited government and stop competing with Democrats to be the party of unlimited spending. Adding Jeff Flake to the House appropriations committee is an excellent way to show how seriously you take the concept of fiscal conservatism. |
| Harvey Bond | Milford, OH | January 15, 2008 | Appoint Jeff Flake to appropriations. We need a tough stance on spending and earmarks. |

| Joshua Walker | Osceola, IN | January 15, 2008 | Republicans are spending as much as Democrats! We should be ashamed that we led spending get out of control as it has the past several years. Jeff Flake has a proven record of standing against earmarking and unnecessary government spending. |

| margaret Kimes | Homeworth, OH | January 15, 2008 | The conservative base is an important part of the party. Many of the discouragement conservatives have been feeling is due to lack of reps in positions of importance. Jeff Flake is what conservatives need!! |
