wow, I guess I should read the local paper more often....
I just found out the Akron Beacon Journal published my LETTER TO THE EDITOR. I will post the link but here it is...and I had just woke up without a shower when I wrote it. That link that was posted MONDAY Morning the 22nd (it let you batch send a LTTE and emails to each of your three representatives) really worked!!!

Hope old Stevie LaTourette choked on his coffee when he got the Email, and the old guy; George Vonovich....wondering if he even reads EMAILS??! I am sure Sherrod Brown is paying attention, he is a real person...you know, a DEMOCRAT!!


No Corporate Welfare for the Greedy

Corporate welfare for people who lost their shirts because of their own greed needs to stop.

I am hereby asking Congress not to grant Corporate Leaders a blank check, because it is obvious now that we need new oversight and regulation to keep them from further destroying the mortgage, banking and investment industries.

The idea of privatization of Social Security should now be permanently forgotten. Thank goodness, that idea was never put into place before this latest meltdown.

The bill for this mess is going to be paid for by the middle class, so wake up America, the Bush regime just raised all of your taxes for generations to come.

It is time for Republicans to be voted out of office.

3. That letter should get the town talking about this disastrous bailout.
The writer did a good job.
