However, the topic of this thread is Mitch McConnell, not John McCain. While McConnell may be far from perfect, he's done a far better job than most of his predecessors. Especially "Vacant" Lott.
I used to be a stanch supporter of McConnell - then, when they tried to push amnesty through the first time - I wrote him a letter telling him how I felt about it. Apparently, I wasn’t the only one. He sent me a letter back saying - Okay, I heard you & many others like you. He said our voices had been heard loud & clear. He went on to reassure me that he would not be on the side pushing amnesty.
Then, by golly - they tried to do it again! And there was Mitch right out in front! He LIED to me & to the other multitude of voters that voted for him. Right then, I decided it was time for him to go. He is just like the rest of them. Pander to your face & then turn around & do whatever he wants to do. Yeah, he’s effective - that’s part of the problem. He’s part of the government that wants to institute a global economy that destroys American jobs and helps big business hire cheap, third world labor in their place. I have come to realize that he, and others like John McCain are not my friend after all.
