Throw the rascals out

Dear Editor,

Is this the best the two major political parties could do, Obama-McCain? You can’t even vote the lesser of two evils – they’re both evil.

Obama is a socialist-Marxist who has ties to the corruption in Chicago/ Mayor Daly-type stuff. McCain is a crazy man, unstable and unfit to be president.

Also, have you noticed you don’t see Vietnam ex-POW’s forming clubs to elect McCain? And, ask the families whose sons didn’t come home from Vietnam and how bellicose and ugly McCain was to those families when these people petitioned the government to help find out what happened to their suns. Ask them what they think of McCain.

Both major parties are to blame for the present state of our nation. We’re bogged down in a war that is impoverishing our nation. Our troops are constantly breathing the wind-strewn dust of depleted uranium from our own munitions. Two trillion dollars is lost in the Pentagon and unaccounted for.

We’re to swallow that we’re fighting “the terrorists,” but if that was really true our borders would have been secured immediately. How are the “terrorists” going to get here to do us in since they have no navy or air force ... fly commercial airlines to Canada or Mexico and walk on into our country! Whose going pay for this federal government that has tripled in size over the past eight years?

And, don’t you just love NAFTA and GATT they gave us? Ross Perot was right, that “giant sucking sound” was, indeed, our jobs fleeing this country. They have ruined our money. Today’s news tells me you can buy gasoline in Mexico at $2 less than the U.S. and the final insult is this – if you purchase their gasoline with their Peso, it costs even less! Their peso is worth more than our dollar!

Friends, throw these rascals out of office and don’t vote for them. They don’t deserve our votes. Look for other party candidates, write your name in, if necessary, then let’s recall them.
