Attack ads are wrong


I just received a third mailer accusing Congressman Steve Knight of seeking to cut Social Security. I think these are sent to seniors because Democrats believe that senior citizens are gullible, uninformed and stupid. These claims are blatantly wrong and outright lies, and they resurrect them every two years.

Congressman Knight has not voted on anything that would do away with Social Security. Actually, he is concerned that Social Security will not be available to those who are paying into the fund now unless it is fixed. But he has said many times that he will not vote to take away Social Security. But of course the truth doesn’t matter to Democrats.

These mailers also accuse the Congressman of taking $200,000 from “special interests.” Of course, no specifics are given.

They don’t tell you that the Democrats are spending $4 million on his opponent’s campaign, much of it from Planned Parenthood (your tax dollars at work). If this is not a “special interest” I don’t know what is.

The Democrats are desperate to take away the last Republican congressman that represents Ventura County and will stop at nothing to do it.

Just remember, voting for the Democrat is putting Nancy Pelosi and Maxine Waters back in power.

So when you get this garbage in your mailbox, put it in its proper receptacle and join me in reelecting Congressman Steve Knight.
