Letter to Senator Gillibrand re her opposition of James Mattis
January 12, 2017 | Paul Klenk

Posted on 01/12/2017 12:47:06 PM PST by Silly

Dear Senator Gillibrand:

I am a constituent of yours, and am writing to express my dismay and outrage for your opposition to James Mattis as our new Secretary of Defense.

Our country is in the longest war of its history, and needs the very best talent we have. Ret. General Mattis is not only exceptional, he is needed, and our troops are particularly excited to have someone in command who knows what he is doing. We have waivers for a reason -- to make sure we get the best people available under extreme circumstances.

Your vote today, and your unfortunate and pointless questions during his confirmation hearing, bring your own patriotism, judgement, and fitness to serve our nation into question. I look forward to seeing our President-elect grow in popularity, successfully command our country, grow our economy bigly, and further marginalize those who undermine America.

It is because of politicians like you that the Republican party now has more power than it has in over 80 years, and the Democrats have lost their national power, devolving instead into little more than a municipal party.

Sincerely,

Paul Klenk

The letter could have been shorter.
Dear Senator Gillibrand.
Get stuffed. Strong letter to follow.
Sincerely,

Great letter. Not that she will give it a moment’s notice, but thanks for the effort.

God bless you, patriot!

We should all get off the keyboard long enough to stop the BS and bother to do the same.

Thank you!

I intend to follow up on this and continue to publicly rub her face in her stupid, unAmerican decision. New York doesn’t need her.

You inspire others.

I am not going to let her forget this. I will show up in NYC when she appears in public and remind her.

Excellent!!! This is JUST the way we keep ‘their feet to the fire’...letting them know we are watching...

We all need to do this ALL the time!!!

Believe me, Hatch and Lee know what’s going to happen if they vote on something I disapprove of...I don’t care if it goes into the trash can or not, at least they know!!!

And then I post an ‘opinion’ on the Salt Lake Tribune to let everyone know...including them!!!

Sending a copy to a couple of newspapers might catch her notice. Maybe. But you can rest assured OTHERS will see it.

She won’t read it. I’ve never gotten any response from the twit. She’s as useless as Hillary was and as Chuck the Schmuck is.
