11. Dear George.. how far you've fallen from your days as a wide eyed optimist.

Now you're a corporate mouthpiece.

I was there when you came out to California to help out one of the most ethical and decent Democrats that ever graced Congress, the late Walter Capps. I organized an event for you and Walter, and have so many great photos of you as a happy, positive, optimistic, champion of what is good in American politics. Losing Congressman Capps was so painful, and to see people like you become the 1%, giving quarter to an abomination of hate like Coulter, makes it worse as i worry that decent people in politics will NEVER get a voice. What a sell out.
