The Hill has a legislator's blog site. Diary entries are by legislators only, but individuals can comment.

I wanted to add this site.
http://projects.washingtonpost.com/congress/ It even divides Congress by astrological sign. -------------------- "You must be the change you wish to see in the world."
— Mohandas Gandhi "This whole tendency to see ourselves as the center of political enlightenment and as teachers to a great part of the rest of the world strikes me as unthought-through, vainglorious and undesirable." - George F. Kennan "America does not go abroad in search of monsters to destroy.” - John Quincy Adams |

Another site to easily monitor voting records as we draw closer to 2007 campaigns for 2008 -------------------- “No one can make you feel inferior without your consent.” Eleanor Roosevelt

Heard about this watchdog site today on NPR.
http://www.cagw.org/site/PageServer Citizens against Government Waste They want you to go to their earmark spending sections (flying pink piggy bank). They want you to contact your state reps to find out how those earmarked dollars spent. They feel they are to general and we need to hold congress accountable. They want everyone doing this and say also write your reps so they know your watching $$$$$$. Pass it around. Perhaps TV investigative news locally would respond to your specific inquiries. -------------------- “No one can make you feel inferior without your consent.” Eleanor Roosevelt
