Laura Bush is coming to Radcliff, KY 11/01/06 @ 11:20 for Ron Lewis

Just got one of those automatic caller thingies asking me personally (How personal is an automatic call? Irony lost on Lewis I guess) to come to a free and open to the public rally with Laura Bush for Ron Lewis.

I sure would like to see a bunch of Dems show up and protest Pickles and Lewis. Will be at Colvin Community Center, need to be there by 10:30 to get in.

I hate Lewis with a passion that burns white hot. He's a fake Christian preacher that is pulling his own scam by putting his wife on the payroll where she is pulling in $75-80,000 a year for doing nothing. I knew stupid Kay when she was the lady who sits out front at an information desk at First Federal Savings and Loan here in Elizabethtown telling people where they need to go. Would love to see a comparison to Ronnie's financial statements before he hit DC and right now. Bet this House gig has been very advantageous for the Lewis. He was also swept in during the tidal wave of stamping out corruption in DC (cough, cough) and singed on to the "Contract With America" and promised to limit his terms but now, like so many repugs, has an excuse why that shouldn't apply anymore. But I digress...

Anyone interested?

please hold up a big sign saying "101 in October."

Will appreciate a report from the site if you can.

(big sigh) -- The count is 105 for October.

I'm afraid you've been detained!?

battling breast and bone cancer since January so when she calls, I go. She called on Tuseday and asked if I could come over (I live about 45 miles away.) I would have really liked to have gone and hassled Pickles just for the grins and tickles. But even the pleasure of laughing at Lewis and Pickles could never replace taking Mom to the doctor and doing some errands for her. My mother has more smarts, integrity, honesty, dignity and grace in her little finger than the whole damn repug party could scare up in the state of Kentucky.

On the up side I was "polled" today by Ron Lewis' bunch of "morans." Wanted to ask me who I was going to vote for. Softened up the call first by asking me to remember that Lewis "kept Fort Knox open" and other pork barrel BS. I told them in no uncertain terms I would be voting for Mike Weaver.

In a shocked (shocked I say!) voice they asked why I would vote for Weaver I told them a multitude of reasons but, to name just a few, because he still supports Bush and any person that supports Bush is not a decent, patriotic American, that Lewis promised to limit his terms and now has gone back on that promise, that he employs his wife, Kay, in a very dubious position she is hardly qualified for a lot of money, that he doesn't care about our troops or the vets by cutting their benefits, that he can't balance a budget, he can't keep his nose out of my family's business or bedrooms, he doesn't mind watching people die from terrible diseases because he is afraid of science, that he doesn't care 50 million people do not have health care and that he has been an active member of a party of horrible, awful, mean-spirited partisan politics every year he has been in DC and I think he has outlived his usefulness to anyone in Kentucky. I asked him if he wanted me to go on. He just hung up.

Dang, I was just getting started.

We hope. That's tough about your mother, such a rugged road to be on.
Take care.
