I can only shake my head sadly when I see stuff like this. Are they merely incompetent or being obtuse?

George,
This was the reply to the following:
Senator Cornyn,
Please consider a challenge to the eliglbility of candidate Barack Obama. It is your duty to uphold the the U.S. Constitution, in this case, Article II – Section I – Clause V specifically, requires that “no person except a natural-born citizen of the United States” can hold the office of President. – Obama is not a natural-born citizen of the United States…and may not even be a legal citizen of the United States. So, how can he be President? S.R.511 States that John Sidney McCain, III, is a “natural born Citizen” under Article II, Section 1, of the Constitution of the United States. S.R511 passed by a 99-0 unanimous consent of the Senate, with only John McCain not voting. The basis was – “Whereas John Sidney McCain, III, was born to American citizens;” – a condition not met by Barack Hussein Obama II. – Co-Sponsors DNC Presidential candidate Sen Clinton, Hillary Rodham [NY]; DNC Presidential candidate Sen Obama, Barack [IL]; Sen Leahy, Patrick J. [VT]; Sen Webb, Jim [VA]; Sen Coburn, Tom.

Dear Mr. XXXXX:
Thank you for contacting me regarding privacy. I appreciate having the benefit of your comments on this important matter.
Privacy is an essential part of the freedom that makes America great. Our Constitution protects privacy by securing our homes and property against unreasonable government searches and seizure. It is the duty of Members of Congress to uphold this constitutional protection while also ensuring the safety and security of Americans.
Technological innovation has not only driven incredible economic growth in the United States, it has improved nearly every aspect of our lives. But new technologies also make available a great deal more information about the lives of American citizens, and thus raise privacy concerns. The same tools that enable our mobile phones to access the Internet from anywhere can be used to track those phones; unmanned aircraft systems can track terrorists and criminals, but also innocent citizens; and conducting more of our personal affairs through online tools gives companies an increasing amount of personal information. Our laws must continue to foster technological growth, but must also respect the privacy rights of all Americans. You may be sure that I will continue to work to ensure the privacy rights of American citizens are protected.
I appreciate the opportunity to represent Texas in the United States Senate. Thank you for taking the time to contact me.
Sincerely,
JOHN CORNYN

He can only shake his head. That’s it? The oath they took was to shake their head. Nice

If you’ve been reading this site for more than five minutes, you would know that I have done a lot more than shake my head in the past.

I GET THIS KIND OF POINTLESS, UNRELATED RESPONSE FROM A SENATOR IN PA NAMED CASEY
Nancy Russell, 5 months ago
I have written to him on several occasions…and basically, received a “generic” letter. They DO NOT care. Once they are in POWER, they do NOT care.
Elaine, 5 months ago
Yeah, that’s an example of the spammed/canned responses I’ve been getting from our “so called Representatives” too.
It’s criminal that this administration is aiding and abetting this treason that has been perpetrated against this nation and its citizenry.

If this letter does not tell everyone that we have a criminal complicit gov’t in DC nothing will.What BS.
Steve Phillips, 5 months ago
Why do people keep voting for these criminals,how stupid is America.UNBELIEVEABLE
Steve Phillips, 5 months ago
My reps often write me back after I tell them I dont like something and thank me for agreeing with them that they have to do it. Whats new. They arent even writing the answers. They hire people to put words in their mouths. And those people probably all come from the democrat party.

Getting increasingly hard to discern any difference.
GeorgeM, 5 months ago
What the hell was he talking about,is this crazy,sure sounded like it to me,maybe it’s just me.
Steve Phillips, 4 months ago
Possibly some clerk sent the wrong form letter. Or, they are deliberately avoiding answering the question.
GeorgeM, 4 months ago
KAK COMMUNIST, ANYBODY?
Is this slime brain in the Feinstein Fold? Sure as hell looks like it.
It’s time to STOP using walls just to hold the paint up … and
THROW ALL THE BASTARDS OUT!

I get the same unrelated, irrelevant responses from the WY Congress reps, too. I would think their staff people could at least read incoming e-mails so the response could match the issue cited!
