Dear Team Gowdy,
Some of you may have gotten an e-mail from Congressman Bob Inglis’s campaign manager announcing their door-to-door campaign kick-off. Going door-to-door is good. Trey has been doing it for months. We are glad the Congressman appears more willing to start listening to what voters in the 4th Congressional District want from their Representative in Washington (close elections tend to have that effect on incumbents). Listening is better than “Let’s Talk”.
Should the congressman show up on your doorstep we thought the following might serve as a helpful list of questions to ask the Congressman about his changing record:
-Bob once said that he wouldn’t take PAC money and that PAC money was “ruining Washington”. To date he’s raised over $125,000 this election cycle from PACs, what changed?
-Bob once was for free market solutions now he thinks healthcare should be individually mandated, what changed?
-Bob once railed on the perks of Congress including franked mail and taxpayer funded trips to exotic locations. He now sends out franked mail and made national news for taking trips snorkeling the Great Barrier Reef and studying “Global Warming” in the Galapagos Islands with his family, all at taxpayer expense, what changed?
-Bob once said “it would be the height of arrogance for me to believe I am the only person capable of representing this congressional district”. He is now running for his 7th term, what changed?
-Bob in the past always supported the troops and voted for the Iraq war but when President Bush needed support for the Troop Surge Resolution, he voted against it, what changed?
-Bob originally went to DC to fight against special interest and out of control spending, then he voted for the bailout costing taxpayers billions, what changed?
We’ve had just about as much “change” as we can handle. It’s time for a principled conservative like Trey Gowdy that means what he says and has the courage and conviction to fight for it.
Thanks,
George Ramsey
Campaign Manager
Trey Gowdy for Congress
