| Winifred Fuller | Port Hadlock, WA | January 12, 2008 | It has been truly disappointing to see so many Republicans in Congress acting like Democrats these past years. We who have been faithful Republicans are tired of watching our representatives say one thing to get re-elected and another to spend our money. We need people like Congressmen Boehner and Flake - and many more. |

| Les Tewell | Fallon, NV | January 12, 2008 | WE CAN NO LONGER AFFORD TO SUPPORT THE EXCESS PORK THAT PASSES AS LEGISLATION THESE DAYS!!! PLEASE APPOINT CONGRESSMAN FLAKE TO ASSIST YOU IN MAINTAINING HONESTY IN THE HOUSE APPROPRIATIONS COMMITTEE! THANK YOU!! |
| Carolyn Ann Widmer | Jefferson, GA | January 12, 2008 | Congressman Boehner, the logical appointee to the House Appropriations Committee is Congressman Flake. The electorate is completely disgusted by earmarking and it is time to put an end to it. Perhaps by appointing Congressman Flake to the Appropriations Committee this goal may be reached and it might help restore confidence to the voters in this election year.

| Dick Bain | Williamsburg, VA | January 12, 2008 | Congressman Boehner; You are respectfully requested to appoint Congressman Flake to the House Appropriations Committee. It's time that earmarks were abandoned as a way of life in the Republican Party. Dick Bain, Williamsburg, VA |

| Evan Bailey | Pearisburg, VA | January 11, 2008 | The Republicans, of all parties, should not take part in pork-barrel spending. The Congress is actively spending our superpower status away. Jeff Flake is one of only two I would trust in this position of power and influence. |
| Cathie Bell | New York, NY | January 11, 2008 | Everyone in Congress is acting like democrats--spending sprees beyond one's wildest imagination. It's time to return to the Constitution!!!! A beginning is ending all this irresponsible earmark spending. Another would be to end all the irresponsible warfaring. |
| John Di Marco | Bridgewater, NJ | January 11, 2008 | I met Jeff Flake at the Americans for Prosperity Foundation's Defending the American Dream Summit in October. I could not think of someone I would want more on the Appropriations Committee to speak on my behalf than him. |

| David Reese | Venice, FL | January 11, 2008 | I know this may fall on deaf ears, or it wouldn't be necessary, but if enough of "we, the people" notify you folks that we are tired of business as usual, you will have to take notice. Adding Mr. Jeff Flake to the opening in the House Appropriations Committee would be a good start to redeeming yourselves. Thank you. |

| Martin Capehart | Gentry, AR | January 11, 2008 | Please, appoint Jeff Flake, so the Party can, stop all the Pork, that us tax payers, are paying for that is, going for pet projects to fill the coffers of the Greedy congress Representatives. |

| Charles Moose | Baltimore, MD | January 11, 2008 | Any earmarks should show full disclosure and be able to be located in a searchable data base. Pass legislation that any appropriations bill must show how each item is consistent with the tenth amendment of the constitution. |
