I Write My Senator

by Thomas Andrew Olson

The Honorable Senator Rick Santorum (R-PA)
511 Dirksen Senate Office Building
Washington, DC 20510

May I call you "Rick"? Having received so many letters from you these past couple of months, I feel we should be on a first-name basis. Even though these letters were most likely penned by staffers, you signed off on them, so I must infer their content reflects your own thoughts and beliefs regarding the issues raised.

Bottom line, Rick, most of what you write me is self-serving, fatuous nonsense, perpetuating the notion that only well-connected, sanctimonious bottom-feeders are best suited for a political career in the USA. But I must admit to a certain guilty-pleasure entertainment value, as it gives me a deeper insight into your thought processes. I only hope you don't have a taste for "higher office," as your career to date is yet another proof of the Peter Principle in action.

Now, while we're at it – what about getting our troops out of Iraq?

Warmest Regards,

Your constituent,
"Tom"
Marshalls Creek, Monroe County, PA
