A typical DeLauro rant: she complains about the elimination of Saturday postal delivery “at a time when our economy can least afford it.” That's because in DeLauro's vote-pandering fantasy world, government services are an endless freebie. In "DeLauro-land" we'll just let the NEXT generation pick up the pieces when the govt. no longer can afford to offer ANY services—because careerist politicians like DeLauro will have spent our govt. so deeply into debt there will be nothing left—except monthly govt. checks sent off to our Chinese creditors. While her pandering secures her own endless political career—which garners her an annual income of c. $2 million per year—she can continue to make unrealistic promises to stay in her lucrative office. Because, thanks to a lifetime of cronyism, her OWN retirement savings ARE endless: http://rosadelauroexposed.wordpress.com/

"It is time for Congress to act and put the postal service on the path to financial solvency."

Cut it by 50%.

Upside: Fiscal solvency achieved.
Downside: The remaining 50% of the emp's will finally have to put in an 8-hour day.*

(* I worked one summer in the post office while a college student back in the '70s and I know of what I speak.)

Quit trying to protect the union drones, Rosa, and try working for the taxpayer for a change.

What a hypocrite. She comes to the aid of the US Postal Service yet all her correspondence with her constituents is by e-mail only. I do not live in her district but have tried several times to contact her office. Her website is specifically designed so that only residents in her district can correspond with her office.

All she's trying to do is protect Government Employee Union jobs. If it were cuts by UPS or FEDEX she could care less.

It seems to me that the USPS is desperately trying to find ways to become solvent, such as consolidating facilities, eliminating Saturday delivery etc. And yet our elected representatives do everything they can to thwart these efforts. How disappointing, if not unexpected.

Rosa DeLauro is a devote Socialist. She's also one of the richest members of Congress with a net worth in excess of 17 million dollars. Within 5 years and during one of the greatest recessions since the Great Depression, Congresswoman Delauro has increased her wealth from 5 to 17 million dollars while her constituents are in constant fear of loosing their jobs and declaring bankruptcy.

She has had a consistent self dealing relationship with her husband Stanley Greenburg's polling firm Greenburg/Quinlan/Rosner Research. In essence she raises money for her campaign only to re-direct it into her husbands firm. She is the "Champion of the Safety Net" while at the same time amassing a fortune for herself and her husband.

She has yet to reveal her tax returns during a Congressional Election.

She is a champion and at the forefront of contributing to Obama's gigantic national debt and out of control spending. During this same period her personal wealth has increased 250% and yet she has voted to increase the national debt 200%.

She and her husband own a multi million dollar townhouse just blocks from the U.S. Capitol which is ideal for entertaining her Democratic Party friends. She entertains several times a month spending close to a quarter of a million dollars on Catering and Wines from 2007 to 2010. The funds for these lavish parties comes from her Democratic Future Leadership PAC. She's a champion at spending other peoples money and not her own.

She's a champion at trying to solve hunger and poverty in this nation while she sits in her study at her million dollar mansion at 49 Huntington St. in New Haven.

Last June Congresswoman DeLauro introduced a bill requesting 128 million be spent to help control risky manipulation of derivatives. Why did she spend 20 years in Congress before they finally banned insider trading by members of Congress. I wonder how much she took advantage of that little loophole???.

In her 22 year tenure in Congress DeLauro sponsored 30 Bills of which NONE were ever passed into law. She Co-Sponsored 270 Bills of which 11 saw the light of day. Her annual salary is $174,000.00 p/year. If I were that productive in the private sector I'd be fired in a New York minute.

Over half of her PAC money and Campaign Donations come from out of state and from special interest contributors. In her last million dollar campaign only $60,000 came from individual donations. The only problem Rosa DeLauro is trying to solve is getting re-elected. She's not trying to solve the problems of her constituents.

Rahm Emanuel, Obama's former chief of staff and current Mayor of Chicago lived for 5 years in a rent free DC Basement apartment owned by Rosa DeLauro. The townhouse is located on 816 E. Capitol St. NE Washington D.C. It's zoned and taxed as a 1 family dwelling making a basement apartment illegal. The arrangement violated congressional ethical guidelines in that Emanual should have listed the apartment usage as income and did not.

It's impossible to find out where she will appear next. When she approaches the podium it's always with a well rehearsed 3 ring binder for which she NEVER diverts from her script. Catch her off the cuff and she's a blabbering idiot. http://youtu.be/xTsaoPyQxRe

Her motto! Vote for me and I'll make sure Government takes care of your every need. I'll eliminate every incentive for self-improvement, since big Government will do everything from pay your rent, pay for your food, and give you a job. We'll pay for it by "Taxing the Rich" so life is "fair" because "it's the right thing to do".

DeLauro's indoctrination into Socialist Ideology came from her education at the Fabian London School of Economics. It's part of the Fabian Society which is a British Socialist organization whose purpose is to advance the principles of Democratic Socialism via gradualist and reformist, rather than revolutionary means. (Google Fabian Society)

Here are the real issues of the 3rd Connecticut District which DeLauro Represents.
1. Unacceptably High Unemployment
2. Deficit Spending
3. Exploding National Debt

These are the major issues which Rosa DeLauro refuses to address. In fact she is a major contributor to these continuing problems. As long as Rosa DeLauro remains in office the recession will continue, unemployment will continue to rise, the national debt will rise, and Social Security/Medicare will be bankrupt.
