It was nice of you to mention that I am a Navy veteran and retired businessman. Did you also know that I organized the East Central Illinois TEA Party and that I am a staunch anti-tax, anti-big government, anti- big spending and free market Capitalist? Or that I advocate making cuts in Medicaid, reforming the state public employees’ pension plan, eliminating wasteful entitlement programs, pay freezes on state employees’ salaries and a line by line audit of Gov. Quinn’s budget plan? Probably not. It seems you had your endorsement for Frerichs before you sent out your questionnaire. If that’s correct, you could have saved me a few minutes filling out the form.
Thanks again for mentioning that I am a Navy veteran as I am proud to have served my country in an organization that respects those who pledge an oath to serve and defend the Constitution for life.
