Dear Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger

Sir,

It was with disgust and anger that I read your plan to tax veterinarian services as a "luxury item".

Do you understand how much it costs for us REAL folks, to take their animal to the vet?

Do you know what they charge us little people for an office visit, let alone life saving surgery, dental cleaning or medicines? And you want to increase that cost?

Pets are not luxury items, they are family to most of us. My dog is my best friend, companion and surrogate child in some ways.

Stop being a feckless Democrat and act like a Republican, or take the damn R from behind your name. Why don't you take money from the "sanctuary cities" that are breaking our laws and use that money to pay for more useless social programs I don't need, want or use. But no more taxes.

This is NOT the principals our government was founded on. Infrastructure and military. Not social programs, moronic school spending on things schools don't need and union blackmail.

NO NEW TAXES. Especially on Veterinary services. Pets are not luxury items.

I will send this to hundreds of dog and cat loving folks and have them send it to tens of thousands of their dog and cat loving folk and so on and so on. I'm on this puppy like fleas on a dog.

It's bad enough I voted for a Republican and ended up with a pandering Democrat (nice job fueling the gay marriage fire by the way), but a Democrat that puts punitive punishment on pet owners, now that is a new low. It's never too late for another "Total" recall.

Sincerely,
