You wrote this powerful letter to the Salt Lake Tribune:
You didn't get mad:
>when the Supreme Court stopped a legal recount and appointed a President:
>when Vice President Dick Cheney let energy companies dictate energy policy:
>when a CIA operative got outed:
>when we illegally invaded a country that posed no threat to us:
>when we spent $800 billion on said illegal war:
>when we tortured people:
>when the government illegally wiretapped Americans:
>when Bush rang up $5 trillion in debt:
>when we gave the filthy rich half a trillion dollars in tax breaks:
>when we had the worst eight years of job creation in decades:
>when 200,000 Americans died because they had no health insurance:
>when poor oversight caused Americans to lose $12 trillion in investments, retirement, and home values:
You finally got mad as hell when a black President decided that Americans deserve the right to see a doctor.
Yes, illegal wars, lies, corruption, torture, millions of job losses, stealing tax dollars to make the rich richer, and the worst economic disaster since 1929 were all OK, but helping fellow Americans to stay healthy ...oh hell no!
Thank you Sharon Davis

Thats pretty good. Admitted. Nice catch!
Welcome to the republican America, where the promotion of death is more important than the promotion of life particularly when money is involved.
Great letter. It sums up exactly how hypocritical all these people are. Like, deficits are suddenly EVIL when it was fine when Bush was doing it.
This needs to be repeated often!!
Please pass this letter around. It needs to be read far and wide.
Wow...the truth is sobering!
I am a sucker for passive-aggressive writing
Give them Hell Peggy!
IOKIYAWR, remember?
Attention all you Kindle owners, lend me your ears: My liberal/progressive rock-n-roll novel, American Zen, just went up for sale on Amazon Kindle yesterday. So if you own any of the 10 varieties of Kindle, please give my novel some consideration. If you like what you read on my blog, you'll love American Zen and its take on love, life, politics, etc. There's also an option on the right side of my catalog page that enables you to see a 45 page sample and if you don't have Kindle for PC, you can d/l one for free. TIA.
Thanks for giving Sharon Davis a verbal kick in the ass. I encourage you to send your editorial to the paper.
