Yes Anthony, we all know the highest mountain in the world is Mt. Everest. But did you know the deepest spot in all of the oceans goes 36,198 feet down and is called “Challenger Deep”? It is in the Pacific southwest of Guam. If you plopped Mt. Everest in that spot there would still be over a mile of water above it.

Open Letter To Pat Meehan

An open letter to Pat Meehan. Resident writes open letter to Pat Meehan. This is Joe Dychala's open letter to Pat Meehan.
Congressman Pat Meehan (R-Pa7) at the Independence Hall Foundation’s (formerly Independence Hall Tea Party) Pro Blue Rally in January.

This is anĀ  open letter fromĀ  Joseph B. Dychala, a resident of the vacant Pennsylvania’s 161st State House District, to Congressman Pat Meehan (R-Pa7) regarding the congressman’s endorsement of long-time Democrat-supporter Paul Mullen in the special election to fill the seat. Mullin’s Republican opponent is write-in candidate Lisa Esler, a Penn Delco school director and a traditional Republican.

Dear Congressman Meehan:

Your endorsement of Paul Mullen is indicative of everything that is wrong with the Republican party today.

Instead of inserting yourself into this local election you should be standing shoulder to shoulder with like minded representatives in the United States House who truly do represent real Republican values such as limited central government, low taxes and a strong national defense. Trey Gowdy, Louie Gohmert and Mia Love are those people.

We have very serious issues facing our country and our world, in President Barack Hussein Obama’s massive and unprecedented transformation of our great nation, that you were elected to help solve. Instead you feel it prudent to involve yourself in an election that We the people, the citizens of the great Commonwealth of Pennsylvania should have the right to elect our local officials without interference from those who are elected to represent us on the national level.

I would firmly yet politely ask you to seriously and publicly reconsider your endorsement of Paul Mullen. Mr Mullen actively and personally campaigned against Senator Pat Toomey by endorsing, both professionally and personally, his opponent Joe Sestak. If you are going to endorse a candidate in a local election I ask that you obtain all the facts before doing so. Until then sir, and I say this with all respect, I cannot in good conscience cast my vote for your upcoming reelection.
Sincerely,

Joseph B Dychala
161st Legislative District, Pennsylvania

Open Letter To Pat Meehan

161st District Candidate Positions

161st District Candidate Positions -- If you are a Republican, ask yourself which one shares your values.The candidates for the Aug. 4 special election for the vacant 161st District Pennsylvania State House seat were surveyed by the American Family Association of Pennsylvania and their answers can be found here or by clicking on the image.

The candidates are Democrat Leanne Kruegar-Braneky; traditional Republican Lisa Esler, who is running a write-in campaign; and Paul Mullen, who was endorsed by the county Republican Party but until a few weeks ago was an active campaigner for Democrats.

Click on the image and note which candidate answered all the question and which one answered none of them.

If you are a Republican, ask yourself which one shares your values.

For what it’s worth, Mullen did reveal some of his positions in a mailer he sent exclusively to union households.

Mullen is truly a stealth candidate. He has hung up on reporters; failed to responded to a request from the League of Women Voters to participate in a debate; and has yet to return calls from Delco Debates to participate in their debate scheduled for Aug. 2. Mrs. Esler and Ms. Kruegar-Braneky have both committed to attend.
