This morning I received a very interesting comment on my post about the letter from Herb Kohl.
You should be able to click on the image below to enlarge it (or, as the cool bloggers say, "embiggen" it).
Anyway, that screenshot indicates my "anonymous" commenter most likely is an employee of the United States Senate. If I had to guess - and this is just a guess - I'd say it's probably a young staffer in Herb Kohl's office. The IP address indicates the U.S. Senate Sergeant at Arms, which owns the IP addresses for the U.S Senate. (The linked Wikinews article is about other federal employees meddling with Wikipedia.)
Aren't you glad to know that a federal employee (or perhaps an unpaid intern) took the time out of his busy day to spend about 12 minutes visiting my blog?
And that he made sure to insult me? I'm a mere citizen, a taxpayer, exercising my right to free speech here, but this employee of the United States Government called me a "town hall yeller" (really? I've been to many townhall meetings and never once have I yelled at anyone) and "pathetic".
Last time I checked, federal government employees were supposed to serve the people, not insult them.
I guess to leftists, it's all the same. Serve, insult, whatever.
But please advise me: Should I call Senator Kohl's office and try to find out who the anonymous person was? Wouldn't that be kind of interesting? Maybe the Senator would want to know that his staffers are taking time out of their day to insult his constituents.
On the other hand, maybe that's OK with him seeing as he sort of does that himself.

I actually don't work for Senator Kohl, although I gladly would work for either senator from my home state. I won't bother you with any more comments after this one, but I would like to say that there is no correct view - there are pros and cons to either party. There are democrats who genuinely care about the wellbeing of their constituents, and Senator Kohl is among them.
Dear Anonymous Commenter,
I posted a reply to this last comment of yours, so please do stop by again. I'm truly open to hearing different viewpoints (as you can see because I publish them) but I don't shy away from spirited debates, either, as you probably also can tell.
