I applaud and commend Congressman Ross
for his call for a clean 'Zika' bill - and I specifically make reference to
you, Joni (but I do not mention you by name), and I also reference you, Jim, as
a possible recipient of my vote come November 2016 in House race, U.S. District
15.
Since I mention Dennis, Joni
(anonymously, but by reference) and Jim Lange (by name), I am sending all 3 of
them a copy of my comments -- they are linked above, referenced in several
social mediæ (plural of "media"), it is only fair I send you a link (and see the
attachments, where it is in 3 different formats).
My email subject line had the word
'Thunderclap' in it because of the use of numerous social media all at once, and
as a cumulative effect from past op-eds, columns, & editorials.
When posting to The Lakeland
Ledger's forums, I had to break up my comment into "parts," due to
character ("word") limitations.
I like Jim, really, I do, but he will not
get my vote this November if Dennis acts on the 2 bills in question, signing on
(cosponsoring HR449 or a similar bill) as well as the Loan Limits bill I made up
out of thin air (and attached - also - in this email, in a reprise of my
prior call). -- I appreciate Dennis' attempts in past bills, but, really, things
like HR1911 -- that bill was horrible, and, as one other Congressman put it https://BobbyScott.house.gov/media-center/press-releases/scott-statement-on-hr-1911-the-making-college-more-expensive-act he
titled his blog entry as "Scott Statement on H.R. 1911, the "Making College More
Expensive Act," and frankly, I agree, and that is a chief reason why
Conservative Review here https://www.ConservativeReview.com/members/dennis-ross/liberty-card/ gives
Dennis such a low score.
In particular, Dennis voted "for" HR1911
http://clerk.house.gov/evs/2013/roll426.xml but
Conservative Review held that **against** him https://www.conservativereview.com/members/dennis-ross/issue-votes/
-- it's pretty bad when some miscellaneous Democrat (Rep. Bobby Scott, D-VA-3rd)
is more conservative than Dennis. -- Even if HR1911 'helped' interest
rates, it's the *principal* of the loan that's the problem, not the interest. --
I know time is short, but really... how
long does it take to cosponsor an existing good HR449 bill, one with
bipartisan support - and possibly introduce my reverse-Boehner
bill?
-- Things like this alienate most voters,
struggling under heavy college debt, where a congressman puts on a horse and
pony show, but does nothing of substance. Dennis really cares about us, and I
have faith he can honour his commitments - and do better. College students
have gotten victimised by Unconstitutional bankruptcy law for far too
long.

"First, they [Nazis] came for the Jews. I was silent. I was
not a Jew. Then they came for the Communists. I was silent. I was not a
Communist. Then they came for the trade unionists. I was silent. I was not a
trade unionist. Then they came for me. There was no one left to speak for
me."(Martin Niemöller, given credit for a quotation in The Harper Religious and
Inspirational Quotation Companion, ed. Margaret Pepper(New York: Harper
&Row, 1989), 429 -as cited on page 44, note 17,of Religious Cleansing in the
American Republic, by Keith A. Fornier,Copyright 1993, by Liberty, Life, and
Family Publications.
Some versions have Mr. Niemöller saying:
"Then they came for the Catholics, and I didn't speak up, because I was a
Protestant"; other versions have him saying that they came for Socialists,
Industrialists, schools, the press,and/or the Church; however, it's certain he
DID say SOMETHING like this. Actually, they may not have come for the Jews
first, as it's more likely they came for the prisoners, mentally handicapped,
&other so-called "inferiors" first -as historians tell us-so they could get
"practiced up"; however, they did come for them -due to the silence of their
neighbors -and due in part to their own silence. So: "Speak up now or
forever hold your peace!"-GWW
