Words of Encouragement

Politicians need encouragment when they do the right thing, I think.  I sent this along to my state senator:

Senator Tomlinson,

I writing to thank you for standing up for fiscal responsibility in the state budget, and to encourage you to continue to stand up to the Governor and his allies in the General Assembly on this matter.

Thanks,

Even when I really would have like to have written this:

Senator Tomlinson,

I’m writing to thank you for voting to not raise my taxes and to keep state spending under control.   I know it’s hard when we have a tax and spend weasel in the Governor’s Mansion, and a bunch of newly elected worms in the General Assembly who seem to seem to lay awake at night counting not sheep, but new ways they can spend my tax dollars.  Keep up the good work, and if you see Governor Rendell, please give him a swift kick in the nuts for me.

Thanks,

Sebastian
Langhorne, PA

But it’s always better to be nice, I suppose.
