Give Lowden a chance

EDITOR:

Dear neighbors and friends in Carson Valley:

n We now have record unemployment in Nevada. What has Reid done to provide jobs? Nothing. What has Angle suggested re job creation? Scientological massage parlors in the prisons? That each of us should become, like her, Melaleuca (snake oil) franchisees? She is but flotsam and jetsam surfing ashore on an understandable tidal wave of anger voiced by our fellow citizens. But craziness cannot substitute for statesmanship.

• Reid has done nothing to arrest the free fall in home prices.

Angle follows his lead by suggesting nothing to solve this problem.

• Instead, Reid, hoping Angle will be his opponent in the general, has created distractions falsely accusing Mrs. Lowden of campaign contribution violations, twisting a DMV error into an Federal Elections Commission charge. Pathetic.

Sue Lowden proposes:

• Investment in solar, wind, biomass, and geothermal to create jobs and rid us of dependence upon foreign oil.

n To take back millions of acres of Nevada land now mis-managed by the federal government, for the benefit of all Nevadans

• Cut taxes and implement new hire tax credits for small businesses

• Implement immigration reform to create American jobs.

• Reduce the size of all bureaucracies and make the remainder efficient.

Above all, Sue is a good person. She has been a great wife, mother, grandmother, teacher, trusted anchor woman, honored state senator, successful businesswoman, served our troops with Bob Hope in Vietnam, and a loyal and true friend to me and my family for 35 years.

Please allow her to extend her innate goodness and quality to the people of Nevada.
