MID WEEK/MID WEAK

Wednesday came right on schedule and Linden was still not 100% and when you have less than 100% of Linden, you often don't have much at all. Had a very good campaign breakfast meeting with Lloyd and Lamoura and went directly to the Study Buddy session with the first grade student. He informed Linden that Santa Claus, The Easter Bunny and The Tooth Fairy are not real! And, to think, he is supposed to be learning from Linden!

Then came a visit to the book store where a May 3 book signing and CD introduction event is being planned. Then, short visits with the printer and the auto mechanic. Exchanged emails with daughter, Julie, we had each failed to connect by phone. In less than two weeks, Linden should have another grandchild. Exciting times!

The evening brought a good meal at Church although Linden was not hungry enough to really enjoy it and a really good program followed the meal. Donna Thomas has been involved in missionary work for much of her life and has been in many, many countries. Her talk tonight was on the subject of reaching out to immigrants to this country. Very good!

The TV was turned on to the democrat presidential "debate" while Linden puttered around preparing for tomorrow. The more seen of those two, the less presidential they appear. It is baffling how each one can still generate a bit of excitement in some others. Perhaps one should check on the definition of "trite" and "tripe."

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.

Illinois 12 East St. Louis – One Found?

Massachusetts 1 Berkshire, Hampden, Hampshire and other Counties
Massachusetts 2 Springfield area
Massachusetts 3 Bristol area – One Found?
Massachusetts 4 Bristol area – One Found?
Massachusetts 5 Essex, Middlesex and Worcester Counties
Massachusetts 7 Middlesex and Suffolk Counties
Massachusetts 8 Middlesex and Suffolk Counties

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.
