Congress Critters from both parties work against what is best for the
99% of working people who just want to raise their families, have a
decent job, and get a bit of fun out of life. I side with the party who
champions working people most. But this came in my mail:
Democrats
who shill for corporations at the expense of their constituents. We
must let them know we are watching and won’t forget when it comes time
for re-election. I'm disgusted that I sent money to five of the people
on this list and I've let it be known I won't send another dollar. That
is a Republican bill trying to gut the DODD-FRANK protections from
another Wall Street melt down.(It didn't pass, by the way.)
The
second one is the Keystone Pipeline. The Governor of North Dakota keeps
touting the jobs it will bring, some say exaggerated numbers, but no
mention is made about the town flooded with oil from a pipeline leak
that ruined their wells and made them evacuate their homes and
businesses. Leaks, we are told, happen all the time in these pipelines.
Gas is at its cheapest in years and we don't need that pipeline. It is
an environmental disaster as we get cleaner and cleaner energy.
I can't say they are ALL TOTALLY bad, but it needs watching.
And,
since I'm on the subject of congress critters, I should apologize for
this, but these people are holding public office. All are newly elected
Republicans for 2015.
There
are a lot of good Republicans out there, but, are there so few good
ones around they vote in people so out of touch with reality?
My information came from Daily KOS.
Well, I've had my rant for the day. Hopefully tomorrow I'll have something more positive on my mind.
