I live in PA-11. Paul E. Kanjorski (D) has repped this district since 1985. He won last cycle by just three points. Although I am slightly out of there, the majority of his district is in NEPA - northeastern Pennsylvania. Scranton, Wilkes-Barre, Hazleton: The region the coal companies trashed and left generations ago. If you think the unions and mafia are not monozygotic twins, then you don't come from here. As a kid, we routinely did our trick-or-treating in bars. More often than not, one of us had to stay outside because our dad was in there. Our jobs are factories, call centers, tourism, and health care. Our priests were pedophiles, and we just removed two trial judges for corruption because they sold juvenile delinquents to detention facilities for a total of $2.8 million. We have "cancer alleys" that remain open secrets lest someone drive away yet another employer. You want to know how bad it is? True story - this past weekend I was in Allentown - 90 minutes south. I met a homeless guy that left here.

Sounds like Michigan.
Nice letter.
I have a question. A real one, not one trying to make a point.
I like the idea of selling policies across state line. However, if insurance companies must be licensed by individual states to sell in that state, does a law passed by the federal government allowing health insurance to be purchased across state lines have some state’s rights issues?
I am definately not interested in taking any more responsibilities (no matter how good it sounds) away from states and handing them to the federal government.
The Rats don’t give a damned if it bankrupts the whole nation. In fact, they are counting on destroying the nation in order to shove the whole package of socialism down our throats.
I, for one, would rather die on my feet than live on my knees.
What a devastating point by point rebuttal of the pablum in that letter. Bravo!
Heyna? er no? :) If you are old enough you will understand.
Ya tink I’m a thick omidon?
Allentown is 90 minutes south? Man, he drives slow.
