Recently, I had an email from my (one and only) Montana congressman, Denny Rehberg. I signed up for his email newsletter because I like to respond to his polls and then add comments like: "hell has a special place for you." (Not that I believe in hell...)
He was boasting -- BOASTING -- about his success in defunding the Health Care Law. This after I had written, begging him to reconsider his position because it would mean that I have no hope. This, on the same evening that I received thousands of dollars in medical bills in the mail because I have no insurance since becoming unemployed. I had assured him that none of my family or friends would ever consider voting for him in his run for U.S. Senate unless he changed his position. The original reply to my email was, "Thank you for your input." And then I received this horrible, boastful piece of email trash that wounded me so badly that my head throbbed and my vision blurred and I thought I might pass out. He claimed he was doing the bidding of the American people (which ones, exactly, because I am beginning to wonder if he actually knows any). To brag about the harm he had just wrought made me wonder if my crazy brother-in-law is right and Rehberg is not a human at all, but rather some lizard-creature from outer space.
The threefold law is my only consolation. He will receive threefold what he has perpetrated. In my imagination this involves things like David-Copperfield-ish poverty along with wicked and icky boil-ish diseases that eat his flesh.
