Subject: GOP House Page Committee Chair Capito STILL doing a "heckuvajob" running Congress' Pedophile Teen Camp?

NOMINEE for Top Ten Neocon Idiot of the Week? Because the "longer" she stays, the "worser" it gets....

SOMEBODY please tell me ...When will the media try to find out why Shelley Capito (R-WV) hasn't been issued a subpoena by the House "Ethics" Committee? It has been widely reported that around fifty subpoenas were issued days ago and yet her office claims they never received one. Isn't this the same "ethics" committee that never looked into her ties with Jack Abramoff, Neil Volz, David Safavian and and Bob Ney?

http://www.gatago.com/alt/prisons/18734404.html

As only 1 of only 3 members of the GOP House Page Committee, shouldn't they have sent her one of the FIRST ones? And when will anyone ask publicly why she was left by House leaders to protect those teens from even more predators despite the fact that she miserably failed to protect them in the first place?

FACT: Ms. Capito was 1 of only 3 senators on the Congressional Page Board assigned to oversee the health, safety, and welfare of the "lucky" 15 and 16 yr. olds serving as pages on the G.O.P. side of the House of Reprobates.

FACT: Ms. Capitoad's fellow Senator Foley (G.O.P. - in his case that stands for "Grossly Overt Pedophile") is WIDELY KNOWN to have used Capito's own Congressional Page program as his personal "Rancho Pedo" for YEARS under her watch.

FACT: Ms. Capito has YET to receive a subpoena from her House "ethics" committee DESPITE the fact that they issued around 45 subpoenas to everyone BUT her even though she STILL is in charge of the GOP House Pages. She has OBVIOUSLY earned the Congressional equivalent of the Bush-Katrina accolade declaring "Yer doin a heckuvajob Shelley" while leaving teens to their own resources.

YET STILL the NeoCon-held Congress has amazingly left Ms. Capitoad in charge of essentially the same group of teenagers to be preyed upon by the rest of her fellow GOPeratives on the "Hill."

1. huh? she testified before the ethics committee yesterday

and she (and Foley) are members of the House, not Senators.

Gotta wonder if the "buzzflash reader" was just a troll...

2. Shellie is not one I'd trust very far...

She comes from a bad family...

9. Her Father Was The Infamous "Arch Moore" - Our Jailed Governor

Like you said, bad family ....

3. A little bird told me, that the race in WV has started to tighten up!

Sunday at 7 on PBS between former West Virginia State Democratic Party Chairman, Mike Callahan and Shelly Moore Capito. It must be pre recorded because, the word is, that Shellie gets the short end of the stick in this thing.

4. Callaghan could use some help, folks!

We've got to unseat that corrupt Bush troll but she's got the Republican money machine behind her!

If you can at all help, please visit http://www.mikewv.com/

Thank you!

5. Flottz, she's got her finger in so many neocon mud pies...

... that some of that mud has to stick. Seems she's good on claiming ignorance whilst her name is associated with so many of the ongoing, major Repuke scandals, from the Foley mess (she is on the House panel that supposedly oversees the Page program) to Abramoff money. Her corrupt ass needs to be sent packing. That bad apple didn't fall far from daddy's tree, that's for sure!

6. Shelley Has a Ney Problem

She didn't fall far from the racketeering roots of that family tree:

7. Surely, Shelley's Family Values - Such As They Are - Should Not...

... be a factor, as her complicit role in the page scandal, and her Ney Problem, gets a thorough investigation by the Panhandle press (including the Washington Post)?

8. man....you two are on the JOB....I sure hope you have some

media connections

this stuff needs to be seen on TV, unfortunately, to gain any resonance with the dopes (sorry, but they are, for whatever rationalizations one chooses to explain said dopiness), for it to have any effect. seen and repeated, like the Swiftboat story, especially since her story has the added advantage of being true.

11. Shelley's Congressional District...

... is within media range of DC:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/West_Virginia%27s_2nd_congressional_district

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:United_States_House_of_Representatives%2C_West_Virginia_District_2_map.png

Notably, it includes Charleston, the state capital.

Now, it just so happens that a certain David A. Smith:

1. Interned for the WV Attorney General (and former state Supreme Court Justice) Darrell McGraw (D-Wyoming County), in the Contracts & Bonds Division (apparently, this is how David became interested in public sector proposals and contracting in the first place): http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q=darrell+mcgraw

2. Played basketball with the son of the former Senate President, Senator Wooten (D-Raleigh County).

3. Is family friends with House of Delegates Speaker Kiss (D-Raleigh County).

4. Was offered a job by Governor Gaston Caperton (D-WV), now President of the College Board. When Governor Caperton came to the K School to teach, David - very typically - reached out to welcome him. The real irony here is that Governor Caperton's grandfather owned the mines that David's grandfathers and father worked in: http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&lr=&q=gaston+caperton+kennedy+school

http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&lr=&q=gaston+caperton+slab+fork+coal+mine

5. Was offered a job by Chief Justice Margaret Workman, setting up battered women's law programs: http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&lr=&q=west+virginia+margaret+workman+chief+justice

While working for the WV AG as an intern, David uncovered $7 million in fraudulent charges on a $70 million contract - to put computers in the classroom. The press release that the AG's Office was able to issue helped redefine the issue. The AG had been getting hammered in the media for impeding progress: the fraudulent billing charges helped show that the AG was every bit as supportive of computers in the classroom as anyone else - but wanted to ensure that WV taxpayers were getting maximum bang from their limited buck.

Shelley may find she has an October Surprise all her very own, right there in the West Virginia Second.
