Brownback disappoints
As a lifelong Republican, I can only express my disappointment in the
Republican Party. From president to dogcatcher, the Republican Party has
failed its constituency. What a bunch "we the people" placed in power! Of all
the problems wrought by my party of choice, the biggest disappointment is Sen.
Sam Brownback. I remember shaking hands with the incumbent senator in front
of Wal-Mart years ago, and the elation I felt with his election.
Now, all I see is a politician pandering to an increasing population of
illegal aliens in the hope of garnishing votes at the expense and welfare of
his fellow citizens. This is a man who took his Washington phones off line
during a vote on "immigration reform" to thwart the outcry of fellow Kansans
to vote against what amounted to amnesty for people who entered our great
nation through illegal means.
In my view, Brownback has placed the status and welfare of foreign nationals
above his own country men and women and has begun embracing positions of
groups that were once referred to as the "loony left." We see in Brownback a
disturbing thing that happens to many politicians who have held office too
long: They forget they hold office to serve their constituents, not their own
re-election.
To paraphrase Al Gore, it's time for him to go.
