Loebsack’s ads on Miller-Meeks false
N/A
Oct. 20, 2010 2:05 pm
I watched Dave Loebsack's recent television ad saying that Mariannette Miller-Meeks is for taxing products at 23 percent. I personally know Miller-Meeks and that statement is taken out of context and simply false.
Miller-Meeks is a conservative, common-sense person whose greatest focus is the economy and creating jobs. Why would she want to increase taxes when it has proved that tax increases stall the economy?
I suggest you go on Loebsack's website and see how many times he has voted “yea” for Nancy Pelosi's agenda that is going to increase your taxes. End of story. I also suggest that you go on Miller-Meeks' website and educate yourself as to the truth about each candidate.
This upcoming election is our chance to put Washington on notice that we are no longer going to take bills being rammed down our throats, out-of-control spending, lack of transparency and corrupt politics by both parties.
Most incumbents need to be removed, with a message sent to all our elected officials that we will replace them if they do not listen to us.
