Thank you for contacting me with your views regarding one of the recent congressional bills. I value your opinions on this and all other legislative matters and appreciate your efforts to keep your constituents informed.
As you may know, the boilerplate letter you send out in response to email inquiries does not include the recipient's original email. As a result, I have no idea what email you're responding to and can't really put the information you've provided to use. If you could please begin including the original email in your response, or at least the subject line or a brief summary, your effectiveness as a representative would be greatly enhanced.
Again, thank you for taking the time to share your views with me on critical legislation. Rest assured I will keep pestering you whenever your representation seems lacking. For example, you placed security at a higher level of importance than adherence to the Constitution when you voted for H.R. 514. You may have heard of Ben Franklin, who said "They who can give up essential liberty to obtain a little temporary safety deserve neither liberty nor safety." As you'll see in the coming months, this was a mistake you may soon regret. Your regret will stem not from any kind of violence (which we abhor), but rather from the PR headache of dealing with persistent supporters of the constitution who demand that you do your job of protecting their freedom, as opposed to keeping them secure by passing laws that violate the Bill of Rights.
For your convenience, you can sign up to receive regular email updates from me at litmocracy.blogspot.com. Please feel free to contact me on other matters of mutual concern.
