E-mail from Patrick Murphy
Today, I received a bulk e-mail from Patrick Murphy. I must have gotten on his e-mail list from my online feedback to him on the issues. The subject line read “Cutting Waste in Washington and Saving Taxpayer Dollars”. I thought it was a joke, at first.
It went on to talk about how he is looking out for us by:
- Reducing government waste and inefficiency – He says he voted for $16 billion in cuts including the F-22s the Pentagon said they didn’t need. He forgot to mention the TRILLIONS of dollars of additional spending that he also voted for.
- Eliminating Medicare Fraud – He talks about introducing the “Improving Medicare Policy for Reimbursements through Oversight and Efficiency (IMPROVE) Act”. This is the bill to require electronic deposit of funds. A token act that will do little.
- Voting Against the Congressional Pay Raise – With the leadership PAC money, who needs a raise.
- Providing Tax Relief for the Middle Class – Talks about the Making Work pay tax credit of $400 for singles and $800 for married people. So, he saved a family $800, but put them all in an additional $15,603 of debt. Gee, thanks!
The spin has started. Do you think yesterday’s election in Massachusetts had anything to do with this e-mail?
The people are awakened and will see right through this spin. Can’t wait until November!
