Congress repeal the payment of the $7500 loan given to 2008 first-time homebuyersPeople who purchased homes in 2008. were given a $7500 loan as a dowm payment. Then the government turned around in 2009 and gave everyone a $8000 credit. I am stuck now paying $500 a year for the next 11years because of this. I think this totally unfair. The government should appeal this so all of us do not have to pay the $500 a year back.62 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Kelly Gaudineer

This is corruption. Public financing of campaigns would make the people the funders. We need a Hamilton-Grant project for Idaho: $10 from state treasury for each voter as a voting voucher, up to $50 private contributions,:candidates opt in voluntarily but take notihing else2 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Laura Reynolds

Then how did you let these Judges have a RETAIN ALL ballot without at least a RETAIN NONE ballot too! Let's set our own term limits for them- Time to clean up and take back OUR courts-start by signing here and also read www.cleanupthecourts.wordpress.com See the abuse and the millions you are spending on nameless faces25 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Paul
