STATE OF THE UNION
Before starting with today's subject matter, I would like to call your attention to our "title the photo" contest announced in yesterday's posting.
-----
Linden believes that President Bush appeared very presidential in his report last night. In spite of serious disagreements with several approaches he has taken, there has never been a doubt about his honesty, sincerity, decency or love of Country. His accomplishments overshadow his shortcomings.
What I found most striking about the speech and the surrounding events was the dour appearance of the democrats attending. They all sat on their hands when the following items were presented:
Make tax relief permanent.
Will veto a tax increase.
Earmark curtailment.
Consumer choice not Government control of health care.
Up or down votes on appointments.
Addressing entitlement problems.
Immigration control.
Fully funding our troops.
The time to act to safeguard intelligence is now.
The speech was a good one but what made me most proud to be a Republican was the attitude of the democrats. Rarely have I seen those I found to appear less impressive than Pelosi, Rangel, Kennedy, Obama, Clinton and Reid. You supporters of this group and this party - what are you thinking? Or perhaps better, are you THINKING?
In closing, Linden thought he heard a "newscaster" refer to Bush's "tax cuts for the rich." Linden is not rich; Linden received a very welcome tax cut. "Newscaster?"

HELP WANTED
It appears that in the last general election there were no Republican candidates in 39 districts scattered across 15 states. These positions offer much more than just good pay. Some of these districts are listed below in State, District and general location sequence. Please help find a Republican candidate in these districts. Even if these districts can reasonably be considered “lost causes,” the effected taxpayers need to have a choice.
California 20 Fresno area – One Found?
California 31 Los Angeles County
California 33 Los Angeles County – One Found?
Georgia 5 Atlanta area
Maryland 5 Calvert, Charles & St. Mary’s Counties – Three Found?
Maryland 7 Baltimore & adjacent Counties – Two Found?
Michigan 13 Wayne County area
Michigan 15 Detroit area
In recent ratings, the Council for Citizens Against Government Waste considered 32 of the present officeholders (democrats) to be hostile, 6 unfriendly, and 1 lukewarm to taxpayers. The National Taxpayers Union granted a grade of “F” to 36 of this group while 3 of them rose to a “D”.

WHAT IF?
Surely you believe that the liberal dominated news media is very, very selective in what “news” they will print or report. Have you noticed the absence of reporting about the improved situation in Iraq? There are, of course, other examples but Linden will assume that you can think. WHAT IF, you complained to the lackluster “news” provider and, if satisfaction is not obtained you then call those who advertise in that medium? Your message could be something like: “ I am disappointed that you choose to advertise in or on …. Who will not report…. Perhaps this approach would pay dividends in the form of less biased news coverage.
