A Politician who didn't say Me, I or we.....

Today I got an email (I complain enough to be automated on his email lists) and for the first time in a long time I was both proud and impressed by a government official. The email was about Osama's death, what that means to the people and thanking our military men, women and families as well as honoring those who lost their lives in the war. The only "I" used was in thanks and hope. The Senator did not say any "I did", "I" said or anything else that would be patting himself or our government on the back for this death. I was just glad to see this as all the others seem to be trying to take credit when it is not due to them. So I say yeah to Senator Bob Casey Of Pennsylvania! Home About Bob Issues Constituent Services News Pennsylvania Contact May 02, 2011 Dear Friends, On September 11, 2001, the United States was viciously attacked in a cowardly terrorist plot masterminded by Osama bin Laden. Today, U.S. forces have killed bin Laden and exacted justice for his terrible crimes which killed thousands. I thank our troops, the intelligence community and diplomats who have worked today and since September 11th to bring Osama bin Laden to justice. On September 11th, Pennsylvania was directly impacted by Al Qaeda when Flight 93 was downed over Shanksville. In the nearly ten years after September 11th, Pennsylvania has lost 68 troops in Afghanistan and hundreds have been injured. The sacrifice of those families who lost loved ones on September 11th and in the following years can never be made whole, but I hope that the death of bin Laden can help to bring some closure. While today's development does not mean an end to terrorism or the need to remain relentlessly vigilant, the death of bin Laden has enormous significance in American and world history. Sincerely, Bob Casey (His signature is here in email but will not come up on here) Note: Please do not reply to this email address. To reply to my office, click
