It all started when Trump was elected and many of us were incredulous. We sensed that something was way off. The EKG of truth was flat-lining. Then came the news that Russia had intervened in various ways. I gathered the signatures of over 200 constituents in Utah and was able to get an OpEd published in the Salt Lake Tribune late last year. The op-ed asked Jason Chaffetz to quit investigating HRC and get on with investigating the real criminal.
For 3 months now, he has ignored this request, which loudly resounded through the auditorium when he came to our Town Hall. We were not worth his time because we were “paid protestors.” We listened to him divert and dissemble practically every question, and then lie about it afterwards.
I began to feel a calling -- as one feels called to be a doctor or a minister. In fact, I am a doctor, and I have felt called to deliver some very strong medicine to Jason Chaffetz. I have met with many people who all assure me of how difficult it will be to achieve a victory in the 3rd district. Our entire State was gerryandered in favor of the Republicans. I live in Eastern Salt Lake County, but we were conjoined with Utah County to render us powerless. In fact, an organization known as the Sutherland Institute actually maintains that it is a good thing that the relatively liberal Salt Lake County was drawn and quartered. The Sutherland Institute states that rural areas are more “inherently moral” than urban areas. Every urban slice of Utah has to have a rural chaperone.
And so I am turning to the readers of the Daily Kos to see if you can help me raise funds to begin my campaign against Chaffetz. Here is my CrowdPac page where you can read about me and contribute to my Medicine Chest: www.crowdpac.com/...
