To the editor of the Morrison Cove Herald, Morrison Cove, PA:
 

A recent Newspaper poll in our Congressional District asked, ‘Should Congress eliminate the Estate Tax?”  Although it affects only America’s wealthiest two percent – Those whose estates exceed $10 Million – 88 percent responded ‘YES!”
 

Which means either:

1. Pennsylvania’s 9^th Congressional District is earth’s wealthiest greediest region…or …
2.  88 Percent of Ninth District residents want to annually tack another $75 Billion debt onto our children and grandchildren.

But of course most aren’t THAT rich and don’t hate our kids!
 

The 88 percent “YES” rate comes from being represented by Bill Shuster, who’s lied about the Estate Tax more than anyone, except perhaps George W. Bush himself!
 

Yesiree, we’ve got to end that ‘Death Tax”. It hurts farmers and small business – Bill repeats.
And you know – Repeat a lie often enough – People start believing it!
 

It’s why we’re in Iraq, why we’re no longer “Leader of the Free world”, why we’re increasingly a land of “Haves” and “Have nots”, why we’re destroying our environment and why we’re already hundreds of Billions of Dollars in debt – by having as president the biggest liar in world history and lapdogs like Bill Shuster and Rick Santorum in Congress.
 

And so it’s time – Time to replace that simple son of a congressman with special education teacher Tony Barr.  Because like Shuster, Tony will sporadically make news handing out big checks to local officials.
 

It’s nothing special; just how government returns some of out Tax dollars.  Every Congressman does it!
 

                But Unlike Shuster, he’ll work for peace, justice, equality and all the other things that made America great before the Bush administration came along.
 

I’ve found Tony to be forthright, honest, intelligent, compassionate, humorous – a winning combination.  Al he needs is your vote.
 

Shuster meanwhile, believing our district is his birthright, refuses to debate Tony.
