Letter: Squirrels and politicians

To the Editor:

America ... Americans ... be very aware and cautious in the days and years ahead. I’m beginning to believe that our country is being taken over by squirrels. The squirrels and politicians are everywhere. You see them when you walk the dog, see them on TV, and when you read your newspapers and magazines.

Of course, the real purpose of this letter is political squirrels – they are everywhere as well. They try to disguise themselves as elephants, disguise themselves as donkeys, swinging
their trunks around, hee-hawing, trying to get our attention. Be very aware, listen closely. Raise taxes, lower taxes, provide more jobs, fix this, fix that, help the poor, help the rich stay rich. Where will it end?
