Letter: Pols ignore their constituents
Monday, Sept. 15, 2003 | 8:41 a.m.
I thought that was a great editorial you wrote recently about our current president gutting the Clean Air Act.
I wonder how average citizens might think about this if they did more than watch TV news. The arrogance and the casual air that these politicians have when they do things like this are beyond irritating and quite alarming.
I guess they consider that their only constituents are large companies, rich corporate executives and conservative talk show hosts.
Makes you want to vote Democratic next time.
