Sen. Blanche Lincoln, D-AR cannot believe we can be so mean and unfair… Like TexasFred, I come from a family of immigrants. We aren’t hyphonated Americans – but Americans. I cannot even speak my mother’s native German…..

The DREAM is dead, for now. It will be back.

Carl Levin did the same thing here in Michigan,. I wrote him 2 years ago and stated he was but one of many reasons I was leaving the Democrats. I have stacks of mail from his office on his ever changing..oh yes I’m listening stance. I have been reassured many times he was changing his tune. Nope. His name is right up there with the others that betrayed us.
Now why the hell am I still listed as a Democrat when I left ? I hate that !
I resent it. I’d rather be called a nazi kkk crack ho.

Sage, I have received 2 ‘canned’ responses, never anything personal, a pull it out of the file form letter from an intern I am guessing…

And I am damned tired of it too, KBH just pushed me over the limit on supporting her, ever again…

This was nothing more than a ‘back door’ attempt at AMNESTY, any way you cut it, and Hutchison is seriously in the casa de pero now…

I find it extremely disappointing that she would do that. I’ve always like her.

Good post and comment Fred,
I have for several years contacted Hutchinson to no avail, even after my wife and grandson were attacked by a pit bull in east Texas. She is completely unavailable to any of her constituents and apparently always has been.
I have never liked nor respected her or her decisions, especially her lack of touch with the people who voted her into her present position.
I, like you, will do what I can to bring about her political demise in the future.
I didn’t like Cronyn for personal reasons but that is behind me lol.
And we do have long memories Kay…hmmmm.
‘Nuff said

This is an exact copy of the letter I just sent to U.S. Sen. Kay Baily Hutchison TX (R) RINO….

Once upon a time I had GREAT respect for you, but from this point on you have lost at least 1 supporter…

If you don’t retire from the Senate, you can count on NOT receiving a vote or support from ME if you run for that office again…

And if you DO retire and come home to explore a run at Governors office I will do everything in MY power to remind EVERY Conservative and Republican in Texas that you worked behind the scenes with the legislations chief sponsor to find ways to make it more palatable to Republicans, ie: the DREAM Bill, from the Houston Chronicle…

Sen. Hutchison, Texans have strong opinions and LONG memories, and you have incurred the wrath of MANY of your most ardent admirers and supporters with this, and WE WILL NOT FORGET either…

My story on this can be found here:

Shame on you Senator, I have never been so disappointed by an elected official in all my life, I thought MUCH better of you than this, it’s time for you to retire, and not just from the Senate…
