Mid-Michigan "Kahn-Job"

In an earlier post, Scot commented on the Congressional race in his neck of the Arboretum. (See below, October 18).

In my area of the Woods, we have a heart surgeon who has a ton of money to spend, and he's running for the State Senate. Enjoying his embarrassment of riches, he can campaign on any subject he likes and access all the media to spread his message. What has he chosen?

His name is Roger Kahn, (pronounced "con") and he's obviously a moral cripple. One of his key campaign gimmicks is to accuse his opponent of supporting child molesters. I couldn't at this point say whether or not his opponent is fit to hold a Senate seat, but I do know this. Anyone would hope that a person well enough educated to be a surgeon would have higher standards than a gutter-bum. But, no.

As democracy approaches its coffin, we can be prideful that one of its nails has been applied by a heart doctor. We had a good Hart here once, Jerry Hart, who was a caring and decent State Senator. He must be rolling over in his grave. Kahn is not fit to hold the same office.
