MY RESPONSE:
Somehow I knew you would appreciate but disagree with
my concerns. Gonzales is a man who supported torture
and given the climate of this country at present I can
see why he has been made attorney general. Rather
fits in with the whole patriot act, guilty until
proven innocent mentality so prevalent nowadays in
Washington.
While you may find it an honor to be in the senate,
rest assured you have never,not once to my knowledge
served me or my interests.
As our freedoms are torn asunder and Mr. Gonzales
takes his place in this administration I'm sure the
republicans are happy to have the time to turn their
attention to the ripping away of the security of
social security and enriching the pockets of the
corporations who will be awarded the private accounts.
Will the administration be investing that money in
Halliburton by chance? Maybe Pfizer?
PLEASE, PLEASE whoever reads this to do NOT bother to
send me back an "I appreciate your concerns BUT" email
or letter.
Warmest regards,
