DISHONESTY IN ADVERTISING

Dontcha just love the last-minute campaign fliers that arrive in the mail in the
final weeks? Expect more every day between now and next Tuesday. My favorite by far is from Pete Sessions, with a line on the first flap asking:

“Who is causing all of the red ink coming out of Washington?”

The answer is, surprise: the Democrats!

According to a recent Wall Street Journal editorial, “Here’s the depressing fact [about GOP leadership of Congress]. Domestic discretionary nondefense spending is up 70% since 1994.”

Pete’s little flier reveals what he thinks about Republican voters in one of the most affluent, best-educated districts in the country. He thinks we haven’t been watching.
