For Mr. Leon Lucas of Kenly North Carolina and my Liberal Friends
First of all I do not want to start a war of words but I do want to point out some facts. First of all I have investigated Mr. Etheridge and have no doubt that he is a fine gentleman and never did I say he wasn’t and also I have no doubt that he has done some good for the 2nd Congressional district. But my question did not question if he was a good man or not it was very simple question, if major Democrats leaders were asking President Obama to veto this stimulus package so why should we believe him that it was a good thing for us. Now as more and more is being revealed and we are finding that these leading Democrats who were against this are now being proven correct in their concerns. A good example is the bonuses paid out to AIG, for we have now found out the Obama administration ask Democrat Senator Chris Dodd to insert this loop hole into the bill. Also what about the money that went to foreign banks? Is that another loop hole the administration asked for? As for Republicans not having answers; what about the last eight years when all the Democrats did was complain and blame everything from the common cold to the planes flying into the World Trade Center on Bush? Never once did I hear any solutions from them only complaining. When Bush on 13 different occasions during his eight years in office kept on asking Congress to regulate Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, leading Democrats like Congressman Barney Frank and Senator Harry Reid said there was nothing wrong with them and that the Bush administration was over reacting and just trying to hurt the poor. Now we have a crisis that could have been prevented except for the Democrats and yes the Republicans are as much at fault as the Democrats on this one for they lost their backbone. Also, when I criticized Senator Dole because I felt she was forgetting she was the Senator form North Carolina or when I questioned President Bush for not knowing how to spell VETO when it came to spending bills there was no out cry, but ask a Democrat a simple question and oh my God the Liberals go crazy. So sir you need to get your facts straight.
