Dick Sargent Lynnea Sargent Heppner Rubber Dear editor, Historically, for a long time the tires on the wooden wheels of wagons and stage coaches were made of iron. This worked out well, iron is tough and serviceable. But the needs changed. Automobiles were invented. Iron is slick, has very little traction. More traction was required. Then Charles Goodyear discovered the process of Vulcanization, which led to the manufacture of Rubber tires, and which led to excellent traction for cars and trucks. Can you imagine 60 miles per hour in your car, on iron tires? At about the same time politicians depended upon personal interaction with their individual constituents to make decision that controlled the laws that they passed, which in turn controlled the way that our communities and our country was run. This worked out well; the iron will of individuals had traction with those servants of the people. But, things changed. TV, personal computers, internet, and all manner of technologies were invented. Now instead of direct contact, politicians could hid be hind banks of automated telephones, and issue news-blogs informing their unwashed, flyover, constituencies of what they had decided. The average hard working citizen lost almost all traction. Then, someone discovered the idea of Tea Parties. Hard working citizens, while remaining as individuals, could stand in large enough groups that the politicians had to come out from behind their electronic walls, and again face their individual constituencies in places like town hall meetings. Now citizens were regaining traction. The Willow Creek Tea Party Patriots will not tell you whom to vote for, or against, or what to say, or who to say it to. They will simply offer unto you, an indi vidual of free will, some traction. Politicians are busy. If they are not required to take the time to listen to indi viduals, they will continue to hide behind their electronic walls. If you wish to regain some of your traction, send a not to: P.O.
