To Bailout or Buyout or Sellout

Governor:

 

Following is a note I sent to both Sen Alexander and Corker. I am not known to be tactful but I try.  I believe the voters have had their fill of our representatives forgetting why they are in Washington.  Anyway, since I saw an article in The Mountain Press where you addressed the subject of the bailout I thought I would send you mine. Let's face it political parties that will spend close to ½ billion dollars for an office that pays less than ½ million dollars a year, cannot be considered fiscally conservative or very bright. This year, 2008, the candidates will spend close to $1 billion why do you suppose the parties are willing to spend so much? I suspect the parties are expecting huge returns on their money as are the contributors.

 

Anything you can do to help the voters will be appreciated...

 

Regards,

Senator:

 

We the people will remember what you do in the next days and weeks. You and your fellow Senators have failed in your duty. You have either been negligent in your responsibilities or you have become so intertwined with lobbyists and mismanaged corporations the only word to describe your actions is corrupt. Of course you can always claim ignorance which interpreted means stupid, your choice.

 

You do not vote for what is in the best interest of the United States, and you do not vote as your constituents, we the people, want you to vote. You vote as instructed by your party with the intent of your party seizing power. Lacking instructions to the contrary you vote in the best interest of those who give you money. This must stop, NOW!

 

Any corporation receiving money from the federal government must be prohibited from associating in any way with lobbyists. Senators (you) must be prohibited from receiving money from any corporation that falls under the jurisdiction of any committee of which they (you) are a member. Any money loaned or given to these bankrupt businesses means we the people own those companies. And we will do everything possible to sell the company. Senior management must be removed without severance and without bonus. Criminal charges must be investigated.

 

You should remember your oath of office.

 

The eyes of the country are upon you and we the people will remember what you do and what you do not do.

 

Be careful for whom you vote………
