As soon as I heard about this crap last week, I fired off a note to my congressman saying two words: NO WAY.
This is more than just an attempt to reduce the public’s perception of the size of each side of the aisle. It is the beginning of (.)bama’s 2012 campaign. From hope and change we are going to move onto united we thrive. This to replace solid proposals with something whimsical. No worry about the economy, fiscal policy, foreign policy or health care. Why discuss real problems when you can throw a bag over them and propose something nebulous. Write directly to your congressperson. Tell them no. Write letters to the editor exposing exactly what this is, a demoRAT trap being set.
To Repubs...Doing this makes us work against you and donate to your opponent in the next election. The “new tone” needed in WDC is to stop anything the LIBs attempt and to reverse or defund anything they have done.
