14. Dear Senator,
I read you very first paragraph...and didn't need to read any further, it was awesome!!


It is often said that: “Those who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it.” Congress would be mindful to remember these wise words as we move forward to address the country’s most critical problems in the new session of Congress.

I immediately remembered Bush and the state he dragged this country into. I remember the debts, the lies, the humiliation. I remember the downward spiral of the economy and the job market. That was a wonderful reminder of what we must remember so we don't repeat it.

So for the hell of it I decided to read the rest. OMG, you forgot the past! You had the greatest start and ruined the whole piece with some contorted, convoluted reasoning. Too bad, this could have been a great piece of writing.
