Last summer George W. Bush came to Bellevue to raise money for Rep. Dave Reichert and thank him for his support of the president’s Iraq policy. In response, local and national bloggers raised $124,000 for Reichert's challenger, Darcy Burner.

Darcy Burner is a dimwit. Burner makes Patty Murray look like Steven Hawking. PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE let the state Dem party find a better, more qualified, and intelligent candidate than this mental midget.
