Confused Americans for Truth - Phone Call from Deluded Democrats

by Ferdinand T Cat

BoundaryLine.jpgBruce lives on the border between the district of Democrat Melissa Bean and the district of Republican Peter Roskam. Due to a clerical error, the gerrymander designed to put his house in a Roskam's Republican stronghold missed and grabbed his neighbors across the street instead. In the attached photo of Bruce's driveway and front yard, the garage and the foreground shrubs are in Bean's district, while the rose, the maple, and half of the pine bush belong to Roskam.

Anyway, because of his precarious geographic position, Bruce gets at least one call a week from either Peter Roskam or his opponent, and he has been letting the answering machine take the calls because he is not one of Roskam's constituents.

Today, he made an exception. This time, the call was from a Democrat special interest group who was expressing outrage that with Families Everywhere Hurting Because of High Gas Prices, Roskam chose to vote down the Consumer First Energy Act a law that would increase taxes for oil companies.

I am not distorting anything here. It was a recorded message, so the same words went out to everybody, and the talking points they chose were a windfall profits tax and fewer corporate tax deductions. Nothing about price relief, nothing about solving the problem, just more taxes and revenge.

Okay, so the Democrats think it's more important to punish people than to solve problems. This is not new. But more important than that is the fact that Peter Roskam sits in the House, and the Consumer First Energy Act is a Senate bill that failed cloture, so Roskam never had a chance to vote against it.

THIS is the group of lunatics to whom you entrusted your fates in 2006, people. I warned you again and again that the Democrats could not be trusted to run the country, and YOU DIDN'T LISTEN.

So, when you're considering how to vote in November, keep in mind that the Democrats chose to solve the oil crisis by raising taxes and increasing regulation, and their much-lauded ethanol subsidies haven't taken one dime out of the price at the pump. Instead, food is more expensive.

Don't ignore my advice a second time.

Respectfully submitted,

Ferdinand T. Cat

I've been listening. But the last elections were before my 18th birthday, so there wasn't much I could do to stop people like Melissa Beanbrain et al. from getting into office. I'm definitely going to vote this year, though. I just wish there was someone better to vote for than John McCain...
