FROM ALLEN, SAME OLD, TRITE RHETORIC

BEWARE Virginia voters, another Republican has arrived and this one's more arrogant, devious and underhanded than all others combined.

Demagoguery spews from his mouth like lava from an over-active volcano, leaving us with a layer of trite, worn-out phrase such as "tax-and-spend liberals."

Congressman George Allen, Virginians are aware of who has been in power for the past 12 years, and aware that the Republican Party has nearly succeeded in totally dismantling this country.

Give up, Allen. Your kind are the cave men of politics. LLOYD M. HOLFIELD ROANOKE
