First off, let me thank the many of you who contributed to my Personal appeal and my blog mate wvablue's fundraising appeal.
I am very humbled by many of the comments. I really appreciate the support. I really want to turn my district blue.
Unger is very close to the fundraising goal set for him and as my blogmate Clem posted earlier there's a matching fund set up for contributions received today. We tried heartfelt and colorful graphics. Now it's time to break out the kitten.
- If vulnerable Republican Rep. Shelley Moore Capito wins again, she might celebrate by throwing this kitten (pictured above) into a pool of water filled with sharks with frigging lasers attached to their fins. Now I do not know this for certain, but as Republican Rep. Patrick Henry would say, I have NO evidence that it is not true so here it is. So it is speculation on my part. But as WSJ columnist Peggy Noonan would say, it would be wrong not to speculate.
- Democratic challenger John Unger loves animals.
- Shelley Moore Capito has taken money from Tom Delay and Bob Ney. I bet her father has contributed to her campaign too. She's voted more than 80 percent of the time with George W. Bush. Do we need a representative with this many ties to law breakers and suspected law breakers?
- John Unger worked with Mother Theresa as a volunteer in India to help the poor and the invisible of society.
- Big oil companies gave Shelley Moore Capito money they took personally from me and many of my friends. The bastards.
- John Unger favors investment in clean, alternative energy sources.
- Shelley Moore Capito claims to support the troops. But she's voted with George W. Bush to keep them in Iraq forever.
- John Unger wants to bring the troops home as soon as possible with set deadlines and funding tied to bringing them home.
- Most importantly, the kitten whose life might be at risk from Shelley Moore Capito is named Markos MoveOn.
- John Unger would never throw a kitten into a shark infested pool.
Save this kitten here.
