Letters To The Editor TI Sun

Right smack dab in the middle of the first of several pages of what is supposed to be reserved for  readers opinions is a Paid Political Advertisement by the Republican Re-Challenger Sutton.  It is  3/4 of a page ad filled with finger pointing and Houdini-esque misdirection.  I would prefer to call it just what it is........

His IS bigger than mine!

The Town of Alexandria Councilman  [Republican incumbents] ads in this weeks TI Sun are HUGE!  Big splashy and colorful ads can be found throughout the Sun.  Those are costly to run.  What is the purpose?  It is to sell you a name, face, and promises.  I took a couple of Business Law courses while in college.  One of the facts I remember is the Sales Puff, which is a sales pitch or talk which is not actionable [This is the biggest deal of the year].  The law goes on to say that ever salesman is allowed one.  I am guessing that if I had taken the more advanced Business Law, I would have learned that this law does not apply to politicians......they can pump up their political campaign ads with as many non actionable statements as they want.  Payment for these ads come from contributions, Republican Campaign, and personal monies.  To me, all this demonstrates  is wasteful spending of money, whether it is their own or someone else's.  

I wonder how they have been spending your tax dollars?

Bowie: Putting Out Fire With GASOLINE

 

See these eyes so green

I can stare for a thousand years

Colder than the moon

It's been so long

Feel my love enraged

It's just the fear of loosing you

Don't you know my name

You've been so long 

And I've been putting out fire
With gasoline 

See these eyes so red

Red like jungle burning bright

Those who feel me near

Pull the blinds and change their minds

It's been so long Still this pulsing night

A plague I call a heartbeat

Just be still with me

You wouldn't believe what I've been thru

You've been so long

Well it's been so long

And I've been putting out the fire with gasoline
Putting out the fire
With gasoline

See these tears so blue

An ageless heart that can never mend

These tears can never dry

A judgement made can never bend
