House Minority Whip Roy Blunt, Bush lapdog, friend to big oil, lobbyists, and any corporate interest, is paying close attention to the campaign of Richard Monroe. Normally absent from the district until late in the election, Blunt has to tear himself away from K Street to make a few appearances with the voters of the seventh district this early in the campaign.
Richard Monroe is the Democratic candidate for Congress in the seventh district of Missouri, running against the neoconservative House minority whip Roy Blunt. A former lawyer with the United States Army, and a county and federal prosecutor, Mr. Monroe represents true change for the voters of traditionally Republican Southwest Missouri. Richard is on the campaign trail daily, and is drawing great crowds throughout the district
as he educates the citizens of Blunt's non-conservative voting record, which benefits only big business and corrupt lobbyists.
I encourage readers from the seventh district and throughout the state of Missouri, as well as nationally, to examine Richard's positions at monroeforcongress.com, and to provide financial and/or individual support for his campaign. His experience as a prosecutor makes him a friend to law enforcement, and he opposes the actions of the Bush Administration regarding Iraq, torture, illegal wiretapping, secrecy, and energy. Again, check his website for his stand on the issues. You will not be disappointed.
