Kilmer's got the courage to meet with us
If you would like to see what courage looks like, and if you are in the least bit concerned about how you are being represented in Washington, D.C., please plan to attend the town hall meeting at the Admiral Theatre in Bremerton this coming Wednesday at 5:30 p.m., where you will have the rare opportunity to meet with your congressman, Derek Kilmer, who, unlike those who are now hiding from their constituents, will be speaking to you directly about the issues you want answered.
Rep. Kilmer, who took over for our beloved congressman Norm Dicks, is one of the most intelligent, dynamic and ambitious representatives in Washington D.C.; a young man dedicated to his job and to the State of Washington. His record is available on the Internet and I encourage everyone to look it up.
Whether or not you agree with everything this young man has done, or the troubles his Democratic Party is finding itself in today, you must admit that in today's political climate, any representative willing to meet with "We the People" is a very brave individual indeed.
So the people should, at the very least, provide him the common decency of showing our concern, our patriotism, our willingness to participate in democracy and our acknowledgment of his courage by filling the Admiral Theatre, 515 Pacific Avenue in Bremerton, to its capacity on Wednesday.
“Democracy is not a spectator sport – get out and get active.”
