"Quisling-Traitor Senator McIntyre:

Conservative Republicans have added your despicable name to the list of TRAITORS in our stench-producing Senate dominated by those on the Radical Left and representing your ilk. Your refusal to be swayed by either reason or eloquence indicates your leftist orientation. HEMISPHERIC SECURITY AND DEFENSE will be threatened by Castro's Communistic allies and your ideological cohorts. An awesomely large mass of information can be mobilized to invalidate your fuzzy left-wing thinking. TRAITORS of your gutter orientation abound in our corrupt Senate dominated by the scum and vermin of the Marxist Democrats. Rest assured, Commissar McIntyre, that you will be classified as insidious and corrupt.  Americans who care to stand up in your Marxist behalf are to be sledge-hammered as QUISLINGS  and odious incendiaries. We will concentrate on your vicious leftist VOTING RECORD and your excessive loyalty to the liberal pig in the tainted WHITE HOUSE. My qualifications: Washington University postgraduate and honor student. You are unquestionably on of the most dishonest and VICIOUSLY CORRUPT hucksters and charlatans in our thieving Senate controlled by vermin of your FAR-LEFT views. We will work assiduously to damn you in scathing terms. YOUR ARE AIDING AND ABETTING  your beloved COMMUNIST CAUSE. CONSERVATIVES are being enlisted to stomp our way through your Communizing Senate which dares to stand up to its CONSERVATIVE BETTERS. Rest assured that we deem you to be on the same plane as COMMUNISTS. You are vermin."

- Letter I received following Senate vote on Panama Canal treaties.

Cut and paste Shea-Porter for McIntyre, Death Panels for the Panama Canal, Socialist for Communist, and Rupert Murdoch for William Loeb, and presto! - you've traveled 35 years in the blink of a paradigm.

This is an Open Thread.
