E-mail to my Rep. re: Bachmann

[thoughtcrime1984]

Greetings Congressman ,

I am contacting you due to the disturbing comments made by Minnesota Congressperson Michelle Bachman. She made incendiary comments regarding people that have anti-American views and the desire to have some sort of oversight on such people. She seems to draw parallels between "liberals", "leftists", and anti-American people. This smacks of McCarthyism, and is not to be tolerated. It is my opinion that she should be censured, to send a message to those who wish to continue to attempt to silence progressive Democratic voices. I realize that is a difficult process, requiring many votes to achieve a censure, but I feel this type of language must not be left unchallenged. Ms. Bachmann will more than likely be ousted November 4th by the voters of MN- CD6, but this is more a matter of censuring dangerous, freedom-damaging thinking than it is condemning the individual. I fully understand there are many large problems facing all of us, and that this could be looked at as a drop in the bucket, but I wanted to bring this ugly behavior to your attention. Our freedom is much larger and more important than hateful thoughts from an irresponsible legislator. Thank you for reading my thoughts, and for doing a fine job representing CD-3.

Respectfully,
