Mattie, Betrayed in NH

Dear John,

I supported you in 2000 because of your service to your country during the Vietnam War. I felt that you were courageous, patriotic and undeniably conservative but your recent actions especially concerning the immigration bill before the Senate has thoroughly changed my mind, not about your patriotism but about your conservatism. You are becoming more like Senator Spector, RINO, (Republican In Name Only). I have to look past your experience in the Senate and your service in Vietnam and look now at your current work. You keep justifying your position on this immigration bill by saying this is a compromise where everyone has to give and take. NOT SO! We owe NOTHING to illegal aliens. We owe everything to the legal citizens of America. They should be your first and only concern. Let Mexico and other countries take care of their own. I have been watching the Senate proceedings on C-Span daily and see now how destructive this bill will be for America if it is passed. I feel like I am watching the country I love so much slowly being destroyed by the very same people we voted into office. I feel betrayed by you and all the other sponsors of this bill. I have decided to vote and support Mitt Romney because he understands what this bill will do to America and is against it. He is FOR Americans first as you are not. I plan to give him my full support. When the Republicans lost the House and Senate last November you said, "Republicans had lost their way." They sure did and you are one of them who led the way. I will never vote for you again, period.
