Legislator Pens Hilarious Rebuttal Letter

An angry TEA Party state legislator has taken issue with a letter to the editor which criticizes him and lashed out in response with a hilarious rebuttal:  “Derek Skees presentation: Letter riddled with errors.”

The letter writer, in “Skees provided boring lesson in free speech tolerance,” criticizes Skees for going on for nearly two hours with a “rambling, discordant monologue” on Skees’ interpretation of the Constitution.

Not true, says Skees, writing that he actually went on for THREE hours.  He spoke for one hour and a half, and “followed this up with a half an hour question period, and I stayed after that for nearly an hour to accommodate everyone who remained.”   So there.

Plus, he fittingly points out, he used PowerPoint so as any rational person knows it could not possibly have been boring.

The letter included no information on what, if any, work Skees was doing to represent House District 4.

    I have a question, is Derek Skees losing it? I mean is he ok, is the pressure getting to be too much? Maybe something wrong at home? Like the wife won’t put on the mask anymore! Maybe thats why he put on the boring speach, his wife is not doing her Christian wifly duties at home? You know put on the mask baby before you come to bed sort of thing.

      I hope that Gen. Robert E. Skees is preparing for FLAG day! I know I am. We must remember the past in time honored tradtion. Hence, I post this as a public service for Derek and ALL the little Skeeters out there, guys like Birther Bob, Jimmy Knoxous, etc., who garnered for Montana such national attention.

    Meetings like this are the reason some of us are getting grey hairs. Honestly, people, organize your material and try to confine your presentation to an amount of time that allows people to listen politely, yet still deal with human frailties like having to go to the bathroom once in a while.

    Skees always signs off with ‘thanks for making it easy for me’ or ‘thanks for proving my point’ blah blah blah. What a bonehead.

      If he is a bonehead and is elected in an honest election where the majority of those who even bother to vote (I broke the habit – you pretty much have to go cold turkey) cast their vote for a bonehead … Gee whiz, forgot what I was going to say but I think you were talking about them Montana values again.

      Anyway if he’s a bonehead and you’re not, then the majority of people who bother to vote in his district are boneheads too, and if you’re a bonehead too, then we’re almost entirely, those who bother to vote anyway, boneheads, so that if any of us are not boneheads we have to be found in that part of the population that does not vote.

      Lost my train of thought again.

        Meds do help in understanding American politics. Advertising is used in place of campaigns and as little information is made available to voters as possible, and the candidates must come from one of two parties financed by the same people.

        Lost my train of thought again.
