FULL DAY

FULL DAY

A morning campaign meeting, where we discussed (over coffee) advertising decisions and costs, lasted until almost noon. I grabbed a snack and was soon on my way to Indianapolis to see a friend who operates a tire recycling business. While there, he replaced my four extremely worn tires. It was nice to meet his daughter and be shown around.

I have wanted to visit that interesting business for a long time. He has used tires brought in by the truckload. They sort them into different grades of usability. Those that are too badly worn to be usable are loaded onto a conveyer and dropped into a hopper where they are chopped into much smaller pieces and these pieces are conveyed to a truck to be taken to a landfill. I enjoyed the education.

I listened to talk radio (probably mostly Rush Limbaugh who is the best available source of news)while driving around. I think I heard quotes from some political figures which resulted in me asking the following questions:

1. Did Tom Daschle say that being the wife of the president does not constitute training for the office?
2. Did one of the Clinton staff say that Obama lacks the necessary experience?
3. If this is what I heard, does this mean that two different democrat leaders agree that necessary experience is in short supply within their list of candidates for the Presidency?

Went to an evening meeting regarding the American Cancer Society and their first ever Relay for Life event to be held in Plainfield. I have previously attended these events in Danville and Mooresville and am very supportive of any effort of this type.

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.
