busterbunny, a message board newbie who swears up and down that he/she is not in any way affiliated with the Owens campaign, gushes about this “Tom’s Diner Treat”:
“I was honored to meet Congressman Major Owens, representing our district 11 for 24 years. He was having some bacon and eggs with his son Chris Owens who is running for Congress in November. It was kind of strange to see that sparkly Congressional pin, hearing them plan campaign events with Cindy Sheehan, and returning to session on Tuesday to vote on the Bird Flu Bill etc. All amidst the early morning bustle of Tom’s…”
“…It may seem that a US Representative is so far removed from local issues, that may be true but that one vote can make a difference on so many critical National issues, especially come Jan. 07 when hopefully Dems take back the House.”
Smokin’ Joe smarms: “it sure warms the cockles to see that an old pro like major owens, even as he is working hard to turn an elective democracy into a hereditary oligarchy, can still take the time to have some bacon and eggs at tom’s like the rest of us. probably even sits to shit too.”
ratnerville4ever retorts: “y’all pathetic. there is no better man or woman running in that race than chris owens … meet Chris, talk with him. then come back here and tell us what you think.”
busterbunny retorts: “jeez. so much angst. one should vote according to a candidates platform. i find it hard to believe that the owens family is some sort of oligarchy, holding court in prospect heights… if you can do a better job then run for congress.”
