Editor, Times-Union: “My way or the highway” is a catch phrase that Joe Donnelly deliberately likes to implement while campaigning across the Hoosier state in a feeble attempt to paint Richard Mourdock as an uncooperative extremist.
However, while running for Congress, Donnelly’s spokesman said, “He would dutifully support the ideas that the Democrats put forth,” and that he did 90 percent of the time. Nonetheless, Donnelly went on record and stated that “Obama can change the character of Washington; he can provide leadership on energy, health care and job creation, and he will also labor hard to solve the problems in the Middle East.”
In truth, Obama has done more to nurture the upheaval in that region by appeasing to the Islamic terrorists while condemning the United States as being insensitive to their prophet Mohammad. The frame of mind of Democrats and their policies is beyond reproach and is something that must be feared; furthermore, their world view is reckless as well as irresponsible. In addition, the Democrats had the majority in both Houses of Congress for the first two years, and they never even entertained the thought of working with Republicans in a bipartisan manner.
Obama arrogantly told the Republicans that, “I won the election.” Keep in mind, Joe Donnelly said, “The nomination of Barack Obama would change the tone in Washington,” and Joe Donnelly has the temerity to call Richard Mourdock an extremist. To the point, unemployment has never dipped below 8 percent and we were promised that the $800 billion tax-funded stimulus would prevent high unemployment, also, the cost of petroleum has risen by more than 100 percent, median income has fallen by $4,000 per household, and the passage of the Health Care Bill has already begun to increase premiums.
Sadly, all this will directly impact the middle class, and yes, Joe Donnelly voted for all of it; my way or the highway, Joe? Joe Donnelly advocates bipartisanship, but has a voting record that unquestionably proves that he is nothing more than a Washington insider and undoubtedly a partisan member of Congress. Obviously, Joe Donnelly has no interest in changing neither his temperament nor his biased perception of government. In last, can we respectfully and deliberately afford to send Joe Donnelly to the United States Senate to represent our interest in a reasonable and impartial nature?
