Negron on WJ "the Rs are party of personal responsibilty" and |
|
"this election is not a referendum on Foley."
No, Mr. Negron, it is an election about Foley and the GOP and is a referendum on governance by the GOP. Tough crunchies!

for over a year, and asked Negron to clear up the matter. Negron said that it was up to the Crist campaign to speak for him and that Crist had answered that question, and furthermore, it was Foley's behavior that was the problem.
According to the St. Pete Times political blog Buzz, Charlie Crist, Republican nominee for governor in Florida, denied last week that he roomed with Foley when they were both state senators in Tallahassee during the period of 1992-1993, before Foley ran for Congress and won in 1994, the year of Newt Gingrich's Contract for America.

5. I think the problem with Pubs boil down to ONE! |
|
In 99% of the votes in both houses of Congress they act like they are no more than clerks of the White House! There's never a question, never any oversite, NOTHING!!
None of them have DONE THEIR JOBS in the last 6 years!
I don't think we have to go through each of the foolish vpting mistakes they've made, or all the things we disagree on. The reason none of them should be reelected is a one line statement, and it has everything to do with kissing W's ass.
The job ofa member of Congress is to represent the interests and wishes of the people, and perform routine oversite of the Executive Branch. Just do your damn job!

6. Not Party of Personal Responsibility |
|
The Republican Party has never been the party of responsibility. Whether it was dealing with having an affair, getting a divorce, or not getting anything done while in control the Republican Party has always blamed someone else for their behavior or lack of behavior. About ten years ago Republican's began to blame affairs on the gas station company Circle K in that circle K sold pornorgphay magazines. Republican claimed that the pronoragphay magazines lead men to cheat on their wives. A few years ago when a Republican politican got a divorce he blamed his divorce on muslims who were living near his house. When Tom Delay was finally called out for the decent into corruption that had overcome the Republican Party in Congress and the Republican Party's inability to get things done in Congress Delay blamed everything on the Democrats. Even though the Republican had been in control of Congress for ten years Delay claimed that everything was the fault of the Democrats in that the Republican had to work within the system created by the Democrats. With ten years in control of Congress the Republicans could have just changed the system if that was the real problem. So you see the Republican Party has never been the party of personal responsibility they just have the benefit of being in a position in which the media never calls them out for not taking responsibility for the things they do.

7. Sure, those Republics have not blamed Clinton for anything now |
|
They've just sucked it up and went about their business. Not one Republic, from Bush on down to the local talk radio guy, has ever blamed Bill Clinton for anything bad.
Every day, I hear Republics humbly apologizing to Americans, begging forgiveness for making America, and the world, less safe... for wanton fiscal recklessness... for trashing the environment... for allowing 9/11 to happen by ignoring the dozens of warning signs... for perjuring themselves before the 9/11 Commission... for the unmitigated greed of their leadership... for using the Constitution as toilet paper... for embarrassing America in front of the world.
Yep, every day, they accept responsibility.
