Dear Washington...

Dear Washington,

First, congratulations! By treating the public as infantile and stupid, you have only helped to alienate yourself further and create more dissent against the government - and, thus, more support for the republican cause of "smaller government." Good work if your goals are to put yourself out of a job and further the ever-growing anarchist movement.

Secondly, if you expect your constituency to approve 700 billion dollar checks coming from our pockets, please explain to us the name we need to write in the field labeled "To."

I know that none of you EVER forget that we are a REPUBLIC and that you all have a great deal of power as our representative officials...

...but you seem occasionally to forget who gives you the orders - the very public that you repeatedly alienate.

Thanks... and better luck next time!

Peace in,
David
