Don Young's Letter
By William Ulmer

 

July 24, 2007
Tuesday PM


What Don Young fails to mention is his letter is that the person who got his ire up was a fellow Republican, Rep. Scott Garrett of New Jersey, not members of the Democratic Party. My guess is that Garrett's action was more directed at the oosik swinging, bird flipping ex-riverboat captain, Don Young, than Alaskans or Alaskan Native Education. I don't think Don Young's antics over the years have endeared him to his own party members let alone the Democrats. Now that is in the minority he may become more and more the bitee and not the biter, to paraphrase his own comments on the floor of the House of Representatives. If you were on a darkened street and had to ask Lord Voldemort, of Harry Potter fame, a question about what a fine lad Harry had become, or Don Young about his 10 million dollar earmark for Central Florida, I would guess you would have a better chance of surviving the wrath of Lord Voldemort than the wrath of Don Young.
