Start yelling ‘help’

-

Dear editor:

If anyone ever studied typing in school, they are familiar with the exercise that uses most of the letters on the keyboard: Now is the time for all good men to come to the aid of their country. If there was ever a time to put this phrase into motion, it really is now!

If you can read, write, use a phone, computer, march or yell out the window, use these means to let your congressme­n and the “president” know by saying you are “mad as hell and you’re not going to take it anymore,” the great line from the film, “Network.” We have got to stop this twit from tweeting vile, stupid, bigoted trash and false news. We should block his tweets and the media should ignore them.

In addition, he has just announced a bill allowing the coal industry to start fouling our air, water and land, along with oil companies and the big industrial complex to “business as usual” ruining our own habitat, all for the money … to hell with all the little people. Of course it will create new jobs, maybe a few thousand … unhealthy, dangerous, tedious jobs that will also kill a lot of the workers. This opens the whole world to carry on with their pollution and the destructio­n of the planet as we know it.

He and his nonbelievi­ng climate change minions should think before they act, because this will affect their own families for generation­s to come, assuming they are not dead as a result of this legislatio­n.

If the GOP version of health care is an example of their ideas, we are doomed on changes in the tax code, a balance budget and anything else he tries to solve.

Also, remember “the quick brown fox jumped over the lazy dog.” Don’t just sit there … start yelling help! R. Bruce Smith Hot Springs
