While most who watched you give the Republican rebuttal to the SOTU saw a sweet kindergarten teacher soothing the fears and trepidations of a concerned nation, I saw that my Representative (5th District, Washington State), was lying.
Using the “FOX” technique, what I call the “reverse scientific method” (Conclusion first, cherry pick a few “facts” to “prove” your preconceived notion), you brought up poor Bette from Spokane, what with the $700 more per month that mean old Obama would make her pay for health insurance. Gee, that sounds terrible, but alas, just not really true. A lie, some would say.
As a constituent I feel like the guy that finds his girlfriend humping the neighbor! We’ve had our disagreements but I didn’t think it had come to this. Too bad the Teabaggers have co-opted “patriot” and “traitor”. I’ll just say, “You’ve betrayed my trust.”
Maybe you could say you were just a good soldier, and somebody else wrote your script, and you were just delivering a monologue. But now with clear eyes I see that with your voting record, that could not be. And now, we’ll still be together through this autumn, how awkward.
Cathy, I’m disappointed, no, disgusted. Thanks, we're done.
