| Jonathan Love | Dana Point, CA | January 14, 2008 | If Democrats and Republicans are going to take us to the same destination with big government, high spending, and high corruption then I have NO reason to vote for Republicans. If a congressman wants to spend taxpayer money, at the very least, he should be required to write a bill and get passed by peers on an individual case by case basis. No Flake= no money and no votes! |

| Carl White, Jr. | Duluth, GA | January 14, 2008 | The 2006 election had nothing to do with the war in Iraq. It was about Republicans who acted like Democrats. Get this appointment right or ELSE!!!!!!!!!!!! |

| , | January 14, 2008 | Im for flake | |
| Charlene Sprehe | Chandler, AZ | January 14, 2008 | We are footing the bill and so we should have the deciding say on this. |
| Louis Whitacre | Auburn, WA | January 14, 2008 | Appointing Congressman Jeff Flake to the House Appropriations Committee would be a much needed step in the right direction. I have a tremendous amount of respect for the Congressman and know he would work very hard to rehabilitate the tarnished reputation of my party, in the house and on a national level. |
| William Hinman | Hayfork, CA | January 14, 2008 | x |
| Alva Lund | Chadds Ford, PA | January 14, 2008 | His appointment will tell the story as to whether Congress has gotten the message from the American People or "back to business as usual" |
| michaele anderson | friendsville, TN | January 14, 2008 | x |
| Brian Barr | Scottsdale, AZ | January 14, 2008 | Put Rep. Jeff Flake on the Appropriations Committee |
| fred rose | minneapolis, MN | January 14, 2008 | Republicans strayed from the mantra of the party and began legislating like Democrats. That is why we lost the majority. Please regain the reputation as watchdogs against prolific wasteful spending by appointing Rep Flake to the Appropriations Committee. |
| Doug Martin | Dallas, TX | January 14, 2008 | Just say NO!...To Pork. |
| Debra Krupp | Gold Canyon, AZ | January 14, 2008 | x |

| Susan Bennett | Maidens, VA | January 14, 2008 | Republicans lost in 2004 because of their profligate spending - we need to start acting like republicans again and support fiscal discipline. Appounting Rep. Flake to the appropriations committee, encouraging him to expose waste and then backing him up, will be a first step in the right direction. While fiscally bad, earmarks also contribute to corruption! |
| Robert Suomala | Green Valley, AZ | January 14, 2008 | Jeff Flake will restore the now tarnished image of the Republican Party and show the public there is an alternative to the Democrats' excesses. |
| Bruce Roosa | Lorena, TX | January 14, 2008 | We've got more Pork than a truck load of pigs! |
| David Ensley | Jefferson, GA | January 14, 2008 | x |
| Wayne Hyden | Shreveport, LA | January 14, 2008 | This is imperative for the future of the Republican party. I have supported the party financially up to last year. I am currently discouraged where the party is going. Pork and immigration are my highest concerns. |
| Carol Allen | Gilbert, AZ | January 14, 2008 | x |
| Jeff Pettett | Phoenix, AZ | January 14, 2008 | x |
| michael anderson | Mesa, AZ | January 14, 2008 | x |
| Dennis McConnell | Surry, ME | January 14, 2008 | My hope is that the Flake appointment to Appropriations will give me sufficient reason to support the Republican Party once again. |
| I Like Pork | Washington, DC | January 14, 2008 | Define shadowy special interest projects. Let's call "earmarks" economic development for our country through congressionally directed spending. Even the President does it through political appointees who set application formulas for grants. A couple of year's ago, the Department of Homeland Security did several hundred million in fire department grants of which 2/3 went to Republican districts. |
| theresa ferritto | euclid, OH | January 14, 2008 | x |
| william demand | cleveland, OH | January 14, 2008 | smaller government |
| angela christopher | cleveland, OH | January 14, 2008 | someone who cares about the people, for a change |
| Sherry Cooper | Washington, PA | January 14, 2008 | x |
| Sean Lion | Hillsboro, OR | January 14, 2008 | I'd suggest that earmarks be included only as a single issue. That would suggest the request for our tax dollars will have stand on it's own and be debated and decided upon according to it's merits. |
| Reece Epstein | Encino, CA | January 14, 2008 | x |
| Bill Meyer | Rockville, MD | January 14, 2008 | John Boehner; Use your leadership to appoint Jeff Flake to Appropriations. |
| John Barratt | Randlett, UT | January 14, 2008 | Congressman Boehner, Please quit playing politics. Conservative Americans are tired of our government lying to us. If you want to stop earmarks and other government waste give the job to Mr Flake ahd then support him. |
| Sam Tucker | Starkville, MS | January 14, 2008 | x |
| jack swift | houghton, MI | January 14, 2008 | fiscal responsibility is something that ordinary americans (taxpayers/voters) once recognized as a difference between republicans and democrats. when republican legislators spend like democrats they lose that important differentiation and must campaign on 'touchey-feely' issues which they always lose. |
| Timothy Jones | Lovingston, VA | January 14, 2008 | Please make this happen. We need to stop this extravagance and abuse. |
| Ken Rolseth | Kingman, AZ | January 14, 2008 | Earmarks are destroying the integrity of the congressional budget process. Appoint Jeff Flake to restore confidence to your constituencies. |
| Alene Berkowitz | wilmington, DE | January 14, 2008 | x |
| Cary C | Oronoco, MN | January 14, 2008 | Take a stand and stand firm! |
| Dan Peterson | Apple Valley, MN | January 14, 2008 | x |
| gayle skjerven | minneapolis, MN | January 14, 2008 | I want Jeff Flake |
| Kent Smith | Burleson, TX | January 14, 2008 | Republicans need to act like fiscal conservatives and earn the trust of the American people again. Jeff Flake can help you do that! |
| Roger Hanner | Sioux City, IA | January 14, 2008 | Please appoint Representative Jeff Flake. Let us make a difference. Let us return to limited government before it is too late. Thank you. |
| patrick neid | san francisco, CA | January 14, 2008 | As a party the Repubs have been a disgrace these last seven years in regards to fiscal restraint. Despite the rhetoric, you and your colleagues have been an embarrassment. It's not by accident that you lost both House's and probably the Presidency in 08. Yours was the party of the bridge to nowhere. At least Dems are honest about their pending pilferage. While cutting spending has not been what you personally prefer, please for once in your life put the country ahead of the party line. |
| Paul Setaro | Glendale, AZ | January 14, 2008 | It is time to do something about PORK. Appoint Congressman Flake to the House Appropriations Committee. |
| Patrice Maloney | Williston, VT | January 14, 2008 | Return to fundamental conservative principles! |
| Neera Goitein | New York, NY | January 14, 2008 | Dear Representative Boehner, Please put Jeff Flake on the House Appropriations Committee. This may turn out to be a year where the Republicans need all the help they can get - giving Rep. Flake a position on this Committee is a way of demonstrating to your people that their voice is heard and thus there is no need for them to stay home and stew on election day. On the contrary, they'll come out in droves and bring their friends. Thank you for your attention, Very sincerely yours, Neera Goitein |

| James Lansford | Mountain Home, TX | January 14, 2008 | x |
| Pam Jerzak | Brookfield, WI | January 14, 2008 | Enough is Enough. I'm so tired of paying for everyone else while my family makes sacrifices to support a government that's suppose to be working for us, not us working for them. Quit the spending. My house if falling into disrepair while our government is worried about frivolous things like bike trails, artwork, outrageous pay for professors, country club type schools, etc. U get my point. Fix it!! |

| Gene Greco | Metuchen, NJ | January 14, 2008 | without this appointment I will find it harder to send any money to the RNC in the future, I need this as a sign that the Republicans are serious about controlling PORK. |
| Michael Mumford | Rockwall, TX | January 14, 2008 | It is clearly long past time to address the earmark issue. Jeff Flake should reside on the committee. |
| Gerald Johnson | South Euclid, OH | January 14, 2008 | x |
| Robert Cole | Liberty Twp., OH | January 14, 2008 | As someone who has worked for you Mr. Boehner, I ask you to seriously consider Rep. Flake for the Appropriations Committee. This will start the process of returning the Republican Party back to the party of fiscal responsibility. |
| R Lange | Blanchard, PA | January 14, 2008 | Republicans need to take a stand on this and Flake is the one to do it. Make us proud! |
| Renie Smith | Rapid City, SD | January 14, 2008 | This looks like an opportunity to put someone on the appropriations committee who understands the need for financial responsibility. |
