I am so upset with our elected U.S. representatives that I feel hopeless. So many tax dollars are spent on pork, the pigs must be choking to death. Then they go on vacation until mid April. Never mind that our troops need money soon to accomplish their mission.
I was at Dirigo Pines in Orono recently and one of the women who works there told me her husband, who is in the National Guard, just returned from Iraq and told her the news on TV and newspapers do not tell the truth regarding how much better it is over there.
In fact three of the soldiers from his Guard unit opted to stay because of the success they see. He also told her that children stand in the road when their convoys are driving to Baghdad to tell them about bombs planted up ahead. Maybe we need to get these kids to come over here to talk to our self-serving representatives who are selling out their country in order to get re-elected.
