Letter: Looking for a party that cares about us

Thursday, May 10, 2007 | 7:26 a.m.

Regarding Donald Ross' May 9 letter headlined "Republicans should stop backing Bush":

Well, I have good news for Mr. Ross. After voting in almost every election for 40 years, 99 percent of the time for Republicans, the GOP has lost my support. I'm a slow learner, I guess.

That being said, I won't be voting for the Democrats anytime soon either. Between the two major parties we have an almost $9 trillion national debt, 25 billion missing tax dollars in 2003 alone, more than 25 million government employees and bureaucrats, neglected troops and veterans, 500,000-plus elected officials, thousands of laws, rules and regulations, $20 plastic ice cube trays and more!

From now on I will seek out independent and third-party candidates, especially those who are more concerned with the average citizen than with special interests and lining their own pockets at taxpayers' expense.
