An Open Letter to Sen. John Cornyn
Sen. Cornyn,
I just read your comments on the efforts by Democrats to attach hate crimes legislation to the defense spending bill, and quite frankly, I was appalled by your naked hypocrisy.
You said: “I think it’s shameful we’re changing the subject to take care of special interest legislation at a time like this.” You also criticized the maneuver as “heavy handed.”
Riddle me this, Senator. Which is the more shameful hijacking - requiring that homosexuals be treated as human beings, or using the Senate as the thought police against organizations like MoveOn.org? Which is the more heavy handed?
You, sir, are an embarrassment to the state of Texas. I, for one, will be all too happy to vote you out of office this November.
Sincerely,
James A. Baker
