To the Editor,
I’m proud of the Republicans here in town, taking every opportunity to obstruct (Rep. Gabrielle) Giffords’ filthy, degenerate liberal agenda. It’s about doing whatever it takes to restore our rightful place of power in Washington.
If that means temporarily going against the welfare of the country as a whole, so be it. It isn’t treason. It’s just politics.
It’s our political duty to use every weapon we can on our enemy, no matter how devious and dirty. Never forget that party always comes first. Let Democrats pretend to care about the country. They don’t fool us with their dirty tricks.
