Brush Prairie resident Anne Brock offers her support for Marie Gluesenkamp Perez
Editor’s note: Opinions expressed in this letter to the editor are those of the author alone and do not reflect the editorial position of ClarkCountyToday.com
After reading in a national newspaper that Joe Kent’s plan, if he wins, is this:
“Our agenda for the first two years is simple,” he said at the town hall. “Impeachment, obstruction and oversight. The Biden agenda dies off in the crib.”
I am very glad we have Marie Gluesencamp Perez running; she wants to get things done for people in her district, she isn’t interested in trying to win flame wars or in “owning the libs” as some on the far right say.
Joe Kent isn’t the right candidate for our district. Marie Gluesencamp Perez is. She will work across the aisle to get things done for us.
I ask everyone to check out both candidates and I hope you will agree.
Anne Brock

When Biden is destroying this country and removing our liberties, then I want someone to stand against it! Joe Kent will do that.
Like a woman’s right to make up her own mind about abortion? You know it is so easy to say someone is destroying the country and removing rights, especially without any supporting evidence – Joe Biden has done more for this country in 2 yrs than the previous administration. No scandal Strengthened Nato and stopped our country from being the laughing on the world stage. He pushed and supplied vaccines for us to get on the other side of the pandemic, 1st infrastructure bill in decades, addressing climate change – he genuinely cares about this county. Just saying
Now that is funny!
“no scandals” except for all the scandals.
Perfect ! LOVE IT !
Generally cares about this country? Biden has done what? Is this serious? Come on man…
Shaking My Head – There is a biblical scripture that states: ” Only those with eyes to see, and ears to hear……..” I think that may apply here. I cant even waste my time to conjure up a rebuttal, and I LOVE to write!
here are some things that Pres. Biden and the Democrats have done:
The inflation reduction act, which includes allowing Medicare to negotiate prices, caps prescription costs for Medicare recipients, and insulin costs for them as well. The PACT act for Veteran health care. The 22nd flight of infant formula. the CHIPS act. some movement on laws around guns, including getting rid of the b/r exception. Ended the war in Afganistan – it didn’t end pretty, but it ended. Passed the American Rescue Plan. Job growth has boomed. Passed the bi-partisan infrastructure bill. ACA was expanded. Helped people with student loans.
Sorry that appears as “destroying the country” to you.
Since the henchmen created the Inflation, they had to write a bill, but it will not do anything you’ll see. Current admin HAD TO RE create all the Bills, he killed in his first week in office 2021, the Executive Orders already in place and working from previous Pres. Also, Previous Pres already took care of lowering Px Costs AND took Care of ALL the bottle necks in The Veterans Healthcare. CHIPS has been in place for years- Infant formula caper they created —> [Problem-Reaction-SOLUTION], was the ONLY Pres who did NOT START ANY WARS during his tenure, Afganistan hadnt fired a shot in 18mos, and lookie how many innocent people were killed because Brandon removed US Forces, B4 the innocents were evac’d. They are still over there! NEXT……………
Sounds like you drank the Kool-Aid
Unfortunately I don’t agree. We don’t need a FAR LEFT candidate that is a supporter of the fascist group Antifa being our replacement for Congressional district No. 3 a seat that JHB had held for several years. I am a conservative Republican and want someone that will fight for us and Joe Kent is that guy, we need Change in Clark County and not the same old BS. Only the Lunatic Leftists Libtards want this lady to represent Congressional District No. 3
How well thought out. Name calling is juvenile. If you want the government rendered impotent elect Joe Kent. If you want women’s rights to be taken away. Elect Joe Kent. If you want our democracy threatened via the false claim the election was corrupt, vote for Joe Kent. In an interview with Bob Woodard in March 2020 the previous president acknowledged how bad the Covid virus was and how easily spread – then for months and months questioned simple public heath measures to protect Americans and suggested bleach, horse dewormer, etc. How many died as a result of his leadership? Yet Joe Kent wants to criminally charge Dr Fauci with murder (his words not mine) I wore a mask to protect those around me. Too bad that humane actions and simple courtesy during a public heath crisis was twisted into a personal freedom/rights issues by the likes of Joe Kent. Rail against a piece of cloth but have no problem taking away 50 year old rights of women. But by all means vote for Joe Kent
Not only have you drank the Kool-Aid, but I think you drank the whole pitcher!
The TRUTH about CV is out now. Need to brush up on what really happened John. I myself have 800+ hours in my research. WHY, you ask would I spend that much time? Because I like being ARMED with knowledge, NOT led by what corporate owned,operated and controlled Media spits out everyday now!
Because myself, and actually Billions now Worldwide have done just that! There are Thousands of lawsuits now GLOBALLY, against W.H.O., CDC, and more for Crimes against humanity!
The proverbial Cat is out of the bag! CV was the biggest mass propaganda, mind-control program hoax EVER done to The Human Race, and I am VERY SAD for the innocents who were harmed. GOD will fix it.
The TRUTH is out there but you have to spend 4-8 hours a day researching to get to the truth. Really you would have needed to follow the movement for the last 6+ years.
I suspect before too long now the TRUTH will be coming out about a lot of things. PRAY
Yes. Its interesting how weak she was on presenting her issues; most of it aimed below the belt at Joe Kent. He was excellent! He NEVER did that once ! Not once! PLUS, he fluently spoke the issues, and his wishes. Nope he is the right person, flames and all!
I am so tired of “work across the aisle.” Does Marie want to close the borders? How many genders does she think there are? When does life start? What about supporting law enforcement? What about keeping bad guys in jail? Can I keep my guns? So exactly which Republican positions does she want to reach across the aisle and agree?
Well, I can’t answer all your questions, but life begins when your brain actually starts up.
See, there’s a brainwave that only beings that are alive have. When that particular bit of brain activity stops, then the being is clinically dead. So, if it hasn’t started yet that being is not alive.
There’s your cutoff.
Easily measurable, and kinda irrefutable.
Although, if we wanna go down the Judeo/Christian route, life starts at first breath.
Do as you will with that.
I like how killing the next generation is the only question you have an opinion.
Well, I don’t know what this means, because it isn’t a coherent thought. But, I didn’t state an opinion. I stated a medical fact and I doubt I have the time or energy to state it again. But let me try.
Brain work = alive.
Brain don’t work = not alive.
Fetuses brain don’t work until a certain point. Ergo, fetus not alive
If the fetus has it’s own DNA it is a human being. Nothing to do with the brain. Something the liberals invented I suppose.
DUhhhhhh The whole point is: Once the fetus has a heartbeat, IT IS ALIVE! We arent talking about Consciousness here.
PLUS, did you know that since 1968 until now there have been 60 MILLION abortions in America? Ya think a little Birth Control, restraint, responsibilty could have prevented that astronomical figure?
Good to know. I have teenagers who don’t use their brains.
OH MY! OH MY! Well guess what? The very first part of the fetus forms from the bottom up, is the spine! Thats where the real miracle of life begins. This part of this issue is superfluous. Number one, what is so funny is how fast everyone took to the streets, DRIVEN ONCE AGAIN, by a narrative, driven the MEDIA AGAIN!
Yep! The usual FRENZY. RoeV overturned was only to say: “That it really had nothing to do with Our Constitution so they handed it back to the states” No One said: Woman woud not have a choice! They didnt say anything at all about what you have heard of the news! See what I mean?
Once you figure out how The MEDIA plays you all like a fiddle? THEN and only the will you understand and begin researching things for yourself
It’s funny how we spend billions to go to mars and find life in small organisms but in a woman’s womb, We say there is no life. Go figure..
When I was pregnant with my daughter, I was teaching her rhythm. Interestingly, she kicked back with the same rhythms. She was indeed a person. Someone who’s never been pregnant is the only one that argues that life hasn’t started in the womb.
How about bringing back energy independence? Lowering taxes? Figuring out how we are supposed to charge these cars we don’t want and can’t afford before stopping the sale of great gas powered vehicles? The list goes forever.
YES!
I disagree… I do not agree that we should all front the bill for government paid childcare or health care, more taxes going toward climate change, abortions shouldn’t be legal or paid for by the tax payer either. I also doubt that she would “ walk across the aisle“ if she couldn’t get along with people in her own community. We need a change and a leader and she isn’t it
What do you want your tax dollars spent on? Endless wars in the Middle East? Sending our money there & to the military industrial complex? I think it’s reasonable to expect that some of our tax dollars be spent on programs that benefit just about all taxpayers not just the .1% who get rich from their investments in the military industrial complex (& their contributions to republican politicians).
why do you think you have the right to tell women what to do with their bodies? And abortions have never been paid for by tax dollars. Google the Hyde Amendment.
So speaking of the military industrial complex, how do you feel about the billions upon billions of $$$ that the current administration is sending off to Ukraine? When we have a crap ton of problems that money would be well spent on right here at home.
Liberals = Hypocrisy. Always has, always will
Well, I appreciate your bizarre verbiage. But when it comes to abortion, that’s not a federal question now, is it? I know leftists want to make a big deal out of it but the Supreme Court has made it pretty clear that the fed has no say in the matter. The 10th Amendment isn’t turned on and off like a switch.
“Never?” Abortions, of course, HAVE been (and are) being paid for by federal dollars. Why, for example, do you think there IS a “Hyde Amendment?” If federal money wasn’t involved, such an amendment wouldn’t have been necessary, would it?
Meanwhile, PP gets hundreds of millions from the Fed… and they can move money around like the best of them.
Just sayin’.
Lindsay Graham has already announced plans to bring a bill to ban abortions nationally after 15 weeks. This is absolutely still a federal issue, not just a state issue.
Lyndsay Graham is a RHINO. He’s only putting up political stunts for democrats to use for midterms. It’s a state issue. Why would you worry about abortions after 4 months old anyways, most are within 6 weeks?
Perez is proof that democrats would vote for a brick if it had a “D” after it’s name.
Interesting comment. This Republican candidate for Washington State Insurance Commissioner in 2020 got over 1 million votes in the general election. I respect the man’s willingness to try for the position, but was he really qualified?

Biden has done nothing, repeat nothing, that makes our lives better or the country safer. Voting blue will just continue the slide into socialism. He took us away from energy independence by cancelling the pipeline, deleting jobs, and stopping the ability to produce our own gasoline, when there is enough oil under the United States to last 400 years. Fossil fuels transport our food and that has been curtailed and made some of it scarce and most of it very expensive. Putin may have affected it, but Biden started it. He has obliterated our economy and everything associated with it, like people’s 401ks, their IRAs, the stock market, so voting blue is the worst thing you could ever do. Our representatives in Congress are supposed to work for us, and most of them currently are not, and yes I mean the liberals. The history of the Democrat party is particularly bad when it comes to the economy and racism – since they started the KKK and created racism in this country. They are not about helping anyone, except themselves by stealing money from us. So vote blue if you are better off today than you were two years ago, but I bet you are not.
BTW I hate to throw wrenches into a motor thats only running on 5 cylnders but what the heck. Next time to hear the phrase CLIMATE CHANGE alias GLOBAL WARMING. Look up and understand our Technological capabilities. Study GEO Engineering and Climate Control. http://www.geoengneeringwatch.org
Also look up and Study The Viet Nam War, and how Government/Navy at the time, caused it too rain so hard, on purpose, in order to Flood out The Ho Chei Mengh Trail, so it would become impassable by The Viet Cong!
