Disgusting Behavior by my Congressman
The video below, where "my" congressman, Chris Shays repeatedly tells one of the four Blackwater Fallujah Widows attempting to testify before Congress, "Don't interrupt," shows a callous, almost psychopathic . . . hey, watch it yourself and tell me if you'd vote for this guy . . .
There are several other Chris Shays videos here, including one where he uses his so-called Congressional oversight authority to praise Blackwater's CEO repeatedly for doing a heckofa "perfect job." Watch them all for a well-rounded picture.
Jim Himes is running against Chris Shays. I support Jim enthusiastically because I've worked with him on several elections and I've gotten to know him. He's the co-chair of the town democratic party. He lives in my neighborhood. He has a quiet, considered style of leadership that I find absolutely inspiring.
In addition to my first-hand personal reasons for supporting Jim Himes (I've donated money and a bit of time), the videos here have presented some very powerful reasons for opposing his Bush-apologist, mercenary-loving opponent, Chris Shays.
