To the editor,

Just when I thought there was hope for Don Ewing, he blows it again. In using examples of rich people denying the poor some help he eventually arrives to blame the president! Not the obstructionists, the president! His first implosion occurs when he whines about the president supposedly caring more about his political ideologies than people. What a pantload! The president's original jobs bill put before the floor of the House was defeated while the CBO, Moody and many more financial institutions claimed about 2-million MORE jobs would come of it, which would stimulate the economy. What the GOP offers is like scraps compared to the president's proposal.

Cryin' over a pipeline delay! Then Donny Boy blames the president for rising energy prices! Sheesh, it never ends! Ever hear of Wall Street speculators? Ya know, Don, the ones you don't want to ever regulate that are the cause of high energy prices? Ever hear of Middle East turmoil which always drives prices when the speculators get their hands on the crisis. Iran's latest threats about blocking oil exports through the Straits of Hormuz sent the price over $101 after the speculators got to work.

It's the GOP that is playing the cheap, conniving, heartless scrooge. What about those rich folk the GOP are protecting in order to put the weight of change on the backs of the middle class families, the poor, the sick, and the disabled? Just a tiny hike in every dollar made over a million dollars would fund the latest demand-side tax cut for working families. But those who smoke the poison tea just don't care. The GOP spends a whole year fighting any pragmatic useful rise in the taxes of the wealthy but then are the first to stop middle class tax relief and the extension of jobless benefits. Unemployment compensation stimulates the economy (even better than some tax cuts), so the Republicans surely want to kill it. If it will help the economy recover, the tea party GOP wants to kill it in order to defeat the president. Get it yet? Its the GOP right wing that is copying the failed austerity plans in Europe. Cut-cut-cut the working class to shreds. Burn the social safety net!.

Well, here comes another dishonest xenophobic rant! Don Ewing is wrong in repeating Harry Accornero's dishonest psycho-talk about immigrant invasions. The fact is that President Obama has arrested and deported more illegal aliens than any president in American history. Google it.
