It's too early to make an endorsement of a political candidate for the 2010 election you say? Not in this case. There can't possibly be a worse *representative* of Iowa's 2nd District than Dave "I do whatever Nancy Pelosi says" Loebshack. Check that..... Johnson County Supervisor Rod Sullivan would be worse.
The primaries are about a year away and the field of possible candidate opposing Loebshack is just now being formed. No matter. The Coralville Courier officially endorses whoever is Loebshack's opponent in the November 2010 election. Any change from having a balding parrot eating crackers in a birdcage lined with PAC money as your *representative* is positive change.
Here's an open letter to Congressparrot Dave Loebshack, who represents (cough) Iowa's 2nd District:
Dear Employee of the People,
Did you forget you were?
On Friday, you voted yes on the energy tax bill.
You didn't even read the thing, but you voted yes in favor of it anyway.
1200 pages of a base bill + 300 pages of amendments submitted the morning of the vote - you have NO CLUE how this bill is going to affect Iowans, but you voted yes anyway.
Human caused global warming is a myth, but you voted yes for a carbon tax anyway.
You just guaranteed jacking up the monthly energy bill for every bill paying voter in your district.
You weren't sent to Washington to be Nancy Pelosi's parrot, you were sent there to REPRESENT IOWA's 2nd District!!!!!!!!!
Sincerely,
Real World Iowan

I didn't think much of Loebsack until I read this. And now I support him fully.
