Dear Senator Murray,

 

I for one am getting seriously tired of being embarrassed by your continual in-your- face politics with this administration.  Between your support for a man that killed 3000 of our citizens, and now this I cannot tell you how happy I am that we will finally get the opportunity to fire you.

I am sick of getting up to and reading articles such as the one that follows where your name or another name from our state is connected with the Anti American, Anti- Bush campaign put on by the party I used to support.   

You are an embarrassment to our state, which I have been a resident of since I was two.    If I don't start seeing some change in attitude toward the Estrada Nomination by the end of this week, with you joining other Democrats that have moved to support his nomination I am going to start a web campaign to fire you, McDermott and Cantwell.

It won't be pretty.   In fact this letter will be posted to our website today.   Did you people not get the message in the last election or is it that you are incapable of seeing that we are fed up with liberalism?  I will be notifying all the talk radio programs in this state about the website and our campaign to remove you from office.

Bush- a- nomics? Give me a break.   If it had not been for what you people sadistically called Reagan - a - nomics in the 80's Clinton would have been like Carter swimming in a sea of high interest rates, higher taxes and lowered national security.  As it is you have failed to protect this country when you were in power.   It is obvious to any thinking person why that was the case. 

Perhaps you failed to notice that immediately after Clinton took office the Boeing Company was forced to lay off thousands of employees due to the loss of several major defense contracts?  Perhaps you failed to notice that our economy has been hurt by the Democrats far more than by the Republicans for years?

Do not attempt to place the blame on the current administration for Boeings recent decline in new aircraft orders either.   Had "your" president dealt with the terrorist behind the 9-11 attack while he was in office the airlines would not have been in trouble, and the resulting  domino effect created by the airline crisis rubbed off on Boeing and other major businesses to affect our economy.  

I am nearly positive as I sit typing this that Democrats think that the minorities are stupid and will continue to support them endlessly despite their lack of ability to do anything for them, and that all other's who have now become either Independents or Republicans are too stupid or brain dead to remember history as it happened rather than the way Democrats would like us to believe it happened.   

The new website will be entitled Dump Washington Democrats, and it will be from the perspective of someone who used to support your party.

 

Democrats Sharply Criticize Bush's Economics
Sat March 1, 2003 11:07 AM ET
WASHINGTON (Reuters) - Democrats on Saturday gave President Bush's economic policies a failing grade, saying the president needed to do more to help Americans feel secure and improve the lackluster economy.

In the weekly Democratic radio address, Sen. Patty Murray of Washington said the economy is worse off than it was in 2001 when Bush pushed through Congress his $1.35 trillion 10-year tax cut promising that it would help boost growth.

"Each week we get more proof that Bush-a-nomics is failing American families," Sen. Patty Murray of Washington said in the weekly Democratic radio address. "This week, consumer confidence plummeted to the lowest level in nine years."

She said Bush's proposed $695 billion economic plan, that would accelerate income tax cuts scheduled in the 2001 package and eliminate dividend taxes, did not make sense. She also said that Bush was not being completely honest in touting his plan to the American public.

"Last week the president claimed that the Blue Chip survey of economists supported his plan, but then he had to backpedal because those economists never endorsed his plan," she said.

She also criticized White House claims that taxpayers will get an average $1,000 reduction in the federal tax bill. The reality, she said, is that that half of U.S. taxpayers will get $100 or less.

"The president needs to level with the American people," Murray said. "No wonder public support for the president's economic policies is at its lowest level ever."

Republicans in the Senate and House of Representatives this week formally introduced Bush's tax cut package, launching a drive to enact the plan. Republican backers say accelerating income tax cuts will put more money in the hands of consumers and that the tax cut on corporate dividends paid to investors will help boost the sagging stock market.

But the plan faces an uphill battle, particularly in the Senate where some of Bush's own Republicans say they are worried about its impact on budget deficits.

Democrats have strongly criticized the Bush plan. They say it is mainly geared to the wealthy, will do little to provide an immediate economic boost and will add to long-term deficits that will lead to higher interest rates.

They also argue the dividend proposal will hurt cash-strapped states who link their tax structures to the federal system and also make it harder for them to sell tax-exempt bonds.
