Letter: Follow the yellow brick road
(Elaine Thompson | AP file photo) Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., left, turns to speak with media members with Rep. Suzan DelBene, D-Wash., right, on Tuesday, Oct. 8, 2019, at Harborview Medical Center in Seattle.
The current Democratic House of Representatives are like Dorothy and friends following the yellow brick road to wherever it leads. There will be adventures and distractions along the way for sure. Meanwhile, in a bright city on a hill, a wizard is shouting into his microphone: “Ignore them, they are lost and do not know the truth. Trust me, I am a very stable genius, whose great and unmatched wisdom will continue to lead us to great things. Ignore those people pulling back the curtain to expose that little man with little hands, shouting into a microphone. They are purveyors of fake news and you should pay them no mind. They are the great traitors to your Wonderful Wizard and the beautiful bright city on the hill.”
