Issue: November 26, 2009
Hi everybody,
Happy Thanksgiving! You want to know a secret? We know the answer to a question that has probably been bugging you since the Democrats took over control of Congress: With a such a large majority—and now a Democratic president—why do these people get so little done for the American people? Believe it or not, it turns out there is a very real reason, and it’s got a lot to with our own senator, Harry Reid. So, click on the link below, and don’t forget to pick up the newsprint version the Reno News & Review for exclusive content like the Advice Goddess, This Modern World, Red Meat, (Th)ink and Roland & Cid. As always, thanks for reading our newspaper. If it weren’t for you, we’d be eating our tofurky out of a can.
Happy Thanksgiving,
Brian
