Parker Slams Emerson in Letter to "Patriots of Poplar Bluff"

Bob Parker, who's running in the 8th Congressional District GOP primary against Rep. Jo Ann Emerson, is still not on the agenda for tomorrow's Patriot Rally in Poplar Bluff, but he's sendinghis best in a letter to the gathering. The SEMO Times has the whole letter -- here's an excerpt:

The truth about candidates and issues must be told if we are going to take back our Country. We must have an open debate on these issues. This is not a Democrat verses Republican debate. Many in my party, the Republican party, have failed at upholding our freedoms and rights. That is not working for Missouri, and that is not working for America. We must be ever vigilant against those that would wrap themselves in the flag but vote for un-constitutional freedom destroying bills in Washington!..

I am running against a 13 year incumbent that has supported Wall Street Bailouts and massive government spending. She has admitted she has not read all of of some bills she supported such as the Wall Street Bailout Bill. She has also voter for Cash for Clunkers, is huge in earmarks and on and on. She has even voted twice that your tax dollars support Embryonic stem cell research that kills life! As a strong Pro-life supporter this presents huge problems for me and my faith. I am a Conservative that wants our country to return to the constitution and the principals of God given freedom that our founders wanted to protect.
