Letter: Think before you vote
Submitted by editor on Sat, 10/20/2012 - 10:43pmThe Tea Party Republicans claim President Obama has not repaired the Bush/Republican mistakes fast enough. House minority leader Nancy Pelosi passed several job bills out of the House. Republican Sen. Mitch McConnell filibustered and stopped those job bills.
