Dear Oregonians

Don't you think it's time to put Earl Blumenauer out to pasture?
His district is one of the bluest in the country.
His support for corporate-bought legislation like the TPP is disgraceful. I remember being upset with him in the 90s when he voted for DOMA. Why is he still there?

Schrader's district, can we trade Reps? I can't stand Third Way Kurt. Having said that, I can't believe that Blumenauer supports this free trade shit....

I've never forgiven Blumenauer for his DOMA vote. There was no excuse for it coming from the district he did.
