Small business association gives Edwards award
By Michael W. Shapiro
U.S. Rep. Chet Edwards was among the members of Congress to snag an award from National Federation of Independent Business.
Members of Congress who support the NFIB’s position on at least 70 percent of key votes in 2009 and 2010 earned the “Guardian of Small Business” award, and Edwards scored of 86 percent.
The congressman helped himself in the eyes of NFIB with votes against health care reform and cap and trade.
245 members of Congress in total (42 senators and 203 representatives) received the award, according to an NFIB release. The honorees were predominately Republicans, including Sens. John Cornyn and Kay Bailey Hutchison, as well as all 20 Republicans in the Texas House delegation. Edwards was the only Texas Democrat to get the award.
Sod oh 1-1= whatever just does not get it. His feelings are hurt because he gets deleted by the people whose views are different then his. He is going to take his toys and got view the Hometown News in Bellmead online
Yep bashing ol Chet may be blacking a few Repubs eyes but shame on them for having the under the table deals with him. Yep some of those good ol boy repubs are scrambling just like ol chet is! Gotta love it. How u like that 1+1=2 too confusing for ya?
I have had all the hope and change I want Chet.you can keep it
Buddy is in desperate need of a buddy. Its ok buddy Obama has hope for you and so do I.
Your comments 1-1 are depressing and says alot about your direction of your party of socialist. You are not even funny and just like your president who apologizes to everyone for everything. I am tired of it and so many Americans are. Things will change in November and then we can set this country on the right path. You will then have to change your handle to something like, I was wrong!!!!!!
1+1=chet...got friends in high pl;aces? Your name and all the names you post under is right back in your face buddy. Enjoy
1-1=clueless How do you come up with all of those names my friend? Obama black book? Thought so enjoy it because after election that book won't be free
Its in the book, give what you can and the government wont have to give it for you.
Emo, I think youve done been licked my boy. Everytime you say something you end buashing yourself instead, its embarrassing son.
You know youve lost when you cant address simple but true facts emo
Elmo states its bigger than d vs r but then says im just a d....LOL, way to argue against yourself AGAIN elmooo
1-1+Chet. You are so far in left field you are outside the field my friend. When you get over this D and R thing get back with us because the issues are larger then this but then again you are so blind from your yellow dog D you can not see..
Do all of you realize that when you knock Chet for receiving this award you are knocking Republicans(mainly republicans)HILARIOUS!!
Amen Bob! A do nothing award. Chet is in a position he has never been before where people just don't believe his photo opp's no more! ha!
NFIB is a wimpy organization. They simply endorse incumbents; and, they don't give them any money. They survive on kissing up.
Your headline is misleading. A 70% voting record may be passing, but it's a "C" no matter how you spin it. In our economy, any vote against business is a bad vote. Any tax increase, increase "fee", or additional regulation (that costs businesses time and money), is a bad vote. It costs jobs and increases costs on consumers. Chet did nothing to stop the worst bill to impact business - Obamacare. Standing by Pelosi, Read and Obama as a back-up vote if needed is hardly working on behalf of his constituents who clearly wanted him to actively oppose the bill. It's time to let Chet experience the challenge of getting a job in the economy he and his buddies created. Maybe if he is out of work for a while, he might begin to understand why the American people are so upset with Obama, Pelosi, and Read! It's time the American people fire the politicians who are not listening and acting on our behalf!
Who? Wow.....best ole Chettie can do
