To the editor:
Now, let's think about this. Moore is the junior member of the House of Representatives from Kansas. He is the sole Democrat in the midst of a full Republican congressional delegation. All major offices, except one, in the government of Kansas, as well as the very large majorities in the Kansas House and Senate are Republican.
One hundred and three of the 105 counties of Kansas supported President Bush and the Republican Party. That includes Riley County, home of K-State. Sadly, lamentably, disgustingly and sickenly, Douglas County joined with, of all things, Wyandotte County to vote in opposition with all the rest of the state.
So Moore votes against the Republican bill to give us back the overcharges of taxes we have been paying since 1944. Yes, that is the one and only year when the amount the U.S. government took from us was greater than now. The Democrat party of Moore was in total charge of the House for, I believe, 46 years, up to the Republican takeover in 1994 which began putting a stop to Democrat spending.
Putting the situation in the most succinct and accurate terms: The Democrat party has one singular purpose and that is to tax the successful and the producers of jobs and income in order to provide measly money payments and programs to people so as to buy votes for Democrats.
So, Moore, the Democrat, Moore the junior member of the Kansas delegation, Moore who demonstrates graphically who and what he really is as a person who puts the Democrat party and politics above principal, believes he knows more than all the rest of the voters of this state. What hubris! What arrogance! What faithlessness to the best interests of his constituents! How a substantial number of pseudo-Republicans voted twice for this mistake is beyond me. Shame on them.
