It seems she'd received a "right-wing" propaganda piece written in the verse-form popularized by Dr. Seuss. It's short, so here it is:
"I do not like this Uncle Sam,
I do not like his health care scam.
I do not like these dirty crooks,
or how they lie and cook the books.
I do not like when Congress steals,
I do not like their secret deals.
I do not like this speaker Nan ,
I do not like this 'YES, WE CAN'.
I do not like this spending spree---
I'm smart, I know that nothing's free.
I do not like your smug replies,
when I complain about your lies.
I do not like this change and hope.
I do not like it. nope, nope, nope!"
Toni's email included her message in rebuttal:
"Hey Dr. Seuss!
If you do not like lies or scams where were you when we were lied to about the weapons of mass destruction? That only put us a trillion dollars or so in debt.
Talk about cooking the books... that was a war that was never funded.
Hello! Why didn't you speak up then? We wouldn't be in this mess that was passed to our current president.
Oh, Yeah ... Free. Free to GOP! Billions in bail-outs to the banking industry that continued to pay their head honchos multi-million dollar salaries (some in stocks), while those whose pockets the Banksters picked were lucky to get a 2% raise. Most people were told "the economy's too bad, so you get no raise" and too many workers heard "Your position has been eliminated."
GOP you never did nothing for me
All I see is how greedy you be
For the people is what America's about
In Hebrews 13.16 lets all shout
Do not forget to do good and share with others
Obama's health care will save the lives our brothers
Yes, we can! And we will keep at this time
America healthy and strong in this rhyme"
Very cool reply.
I've found out Toni has a keen and clear mind plus an astute grasp of the issues. (As well as a top-drawer poetic streak. :)
You will be hearing more from her!
