« Another version of Democrats' sweep | Main | Press did sloppy job telling reasons for war »

Despite higher profile, Democrats still the same

If anyone doubts the hypocrisy of the Democrats, the last few weeks have shown them for what they are.

First, Congress spends weeks passing a budget bill with troop withdrawal (surrender) dates and billions in pork projects, knowing that it will be vetoed. If they really want to stop the war, instead of using it as political fodder, they can withhold the funds. They do not have the conviction to do this, as then they would be responsible for the aftermath.

Then there is (the man of the people) John Edwards with his $5.3 million house and $400 haircuts. He also participated in the debate in South Carolina on April 26 where all eight candidates arrived on private jets. These are people lecturing the public about global warming and carbon footprints.

John Corzine travels at 90 mph not wearing a seat belt and crashes, endangering many people. The speed limits and seat-belt laws don't apply to him.

Democrats think they know what is best for us as long as it doesn't apply to them personally.

its pitiful how you republicans cannot see your own party's and candidates failings which are huge, but point out every little thing that you don't like about the opposition.

Simple ORR:

Letter rails at Dems' and uses the following to prove the point:

"John Corzine travels at 90 mph not wearing a seat belt and crashes, endangering many people. The speed limits and seat-belt laws don't apply to him."

So The State Trooper behind the wheel, the one actually pushing that slender pedal on the floor .. had to be a Democrat !!

Simple!

It was also a follow up to another letter that in the same way stated one needed to be Dem to have an abortion.

JDR, thanks for noting that it was a NJ State Trooper driving Governor Corzine. I found that comment in this LTTE humorous to say the least.

I guess the N & R felt it was time to give the opposition group a few inches of newspaper space!
