Great article

Clear Channel (a company w/ many conservative connections) seems to be taking the Deng Xiaopeng road on Liberal talk radio:

Response from Senator Murray

Dear Mr. G:

Thank you so much for taking the time to contact my office and share your kind words of support. I am very proud to represent Washington state in the Senate, and your encouragement means so much to me.I have always believed that the purpose of public service is to make a positive difference in the lives of ordinary Americans.

If we are to effect real change in our country, we must remain visionary and honest on issues such as education, health care and the economy. I work for innovative solutions on these and other challenges that face our nation.My work in the Senate is focused on people, and nothing is more important to me than receiving advice and comments from the people of Washington state.

I hope you will continue to stay in touch on matters of interest to you, and that you will not hesitate to call on me whenever I may be of assistance.

Again, thank you for contacting me. Please stay in touch.

Sincerely,

Patty Murray
United States Senator
