Editor:
After reading Diane Daiute’s April 4 letter to the editor, “Health numbers tell the real story,” I don’t know how she can even stand to live in one of the most conservative counties in Oregon, much less Sweet Home. That poor, poor lady.
I guess she won’t be marching with the Wall Street protesters any time soon since the people she described from the blue states appear to be in the top 1 percent. They are the ones not paying their fair share to take care of the red states. We 99 percent deserve the money that the blue states have.
Never mind the fact that most welfare programs were started by the Democrats who would like to have as many people on the dole as possible; after all, that is where they get most of their votes. Don’t believe me? Check it out for yourself. Look up the New Deal and The Great Society.
Since “Obamacare” is modeled after “Romney care,” then I guess she won’t object if we all vote for Romney.
As far as the conservatives hating women I think she has a self-esteem problem and she seriously needs counseling (free at your local health clinic). I have never felt put down by a conservative but I have been called lots of names by liberals because I did not agree with the their point of view. I don’t let other people determine my worth. I leave that up to God. Oops, I said the “G” word.
Maybe some of us dumb conservatives could pass the hat and collect enough money to get a chartered plane to transport her to Portland; I’m sure she would fit right in. I’ll throw in all of my food stamps, welfare checks, HUD money, free health care money, free child care money, free money for college loans, free credit card money and all my free mortgage money. I’m sure I can call on the blue states to pay off my debts for this month so I can afford to donate in order to get a chartered plane for her.
But then, again, maybe Obama will send an Air Force jet for her.
