Congressman Jerrymander: Re EPA Lead Ban CC Letter

Dear Mr. FightinBluHen51:

Thank you for sending me a copy of your recent letter to the Administrator of the Environmental Protection Agency regarding a possible ban of lead in sporting ammunition.  

I feel very fortunate to be able to communicate regularly with the people of the 3rd Congressional District.  I travel home every evening – an opportunity many Members of Congress do not have – and find that I am able to do my job much better because I am in daily contact with the people I serve in the Congress.  I also appreciate hearing many different points of view as I consider issues in the House of Representatives.  I appreciate you letting me know of your concerns and hope that your correspondence elicits a satisfactory response.

Again, thank you for taking the time to contact me.  If I can be of assistance to you in the future, please do not hesitate to get in touch.



Sincerely,
John Sarbanes
Member of Congress

I LOVE MY CONGRESS CRITTER!  (sarcasm)  What a tool!  Obviously, he wasn't forced to take a stand or issue an opinion since they backed down on their lead ammo ban.  Writing to me to tell me that you enjoy keeping in contact with your constituents just because it's what, good Congressman business practice?  Yeah, ohhhkay.  I knew I wouldn't expect to see a whole lot said by this no load, but don't patronize me with boring drivel. 

"Elicits a satisfactory response?"  You didn't say ANYTHING about the topic at hand.  You find it fortunate for your reelection bid that 1) you have your daddy's name, 2) you're in a district Jerrymandered for your benefit, 3) and the EPA did you a favor and spared you having to take a position on this issue.  Look dude, we know your anti-gun, anti-hunting, anti-American tradition stance on damned near everything before you, so it isn't a surprise you jacked your we-we up into a whooo-haaaa and sat on the fence for this issue.  We wouldn't expect real leadership from you on any matter, just more 99% party line voting. 

Face-palm!  Is there anyone out there who can unseat this guy?  Hell, I'd take another Dem over this yahoo!  Seriously!  I might even consider switching my registration!  Yes, I actually said that.
