Vancouver resident B.L. Bacigalupi offers his thoughts on the 3rd Congressional District race between Joe Kent and Marie Gluesenkamp Perez

I attended a Joe Kent town hall recently at the Ridgefield Library. I told him that after all of the stuff I’ve seen on T.V., I expected to see horns and a tail on him. Of course that was meant to be humorous, but what I’ve seen on T.V. is anything but humorous. It is sick and disturbing.
The portrayal of Joe Kent by the Democrats strays out of politics and into the realm of psychiatry. The people who produce and approve of this slander are definitely not the type of people that we want in power. And certainly not the type we want representing us in congress.
These are nothing more than fairy tales meant to scare the little children. I would urge all grown-ups to reject this garbage and vote for Joe Kent.
