Can a Catholic father of six handle the responsibilities of public office?

Mary Beth Buchanan, who is competing with Keith Rothfus in Pennsylvania-4’s GOP primary next Tuesday, doesn’t think so.

[snip]

From Sunday’s Post-Gazette:

The married mother of a grown daughter had another message for the married father of six, whose youngest child is 3: “I’m running full time for this position and I will be able to devote my full time to it, as I do not have other responsibilities — as my primary opponent should be concerned about,” she said.

(Rothfus is a repeal-Obamacare, pro-Second Amendment, anti-tax, pro-life advocate.) So do you think a conservative Primary candidate is basically unable to perform his duties of office, if he has six kids?

If you want to donate your time or treasure to help get his campaign across the finish line next Tuesday, contact his campaign manager Stephanie Miller at 412-915-8562 or stephmiller89123@gmail.com. Keith’s website is www.keithpa4.com. He’s been busy racking up the local endorsements too.

I threw in $10, which I really can't affort, but just enough to express: "Hey Keith! (Punching the air.) Hope you win!"

What a foolish thing to say. Mary Beth Buchanan lost points on credibility.

Just for a hoot: throw in a little support and say, "Go, daddy, Go!"

By the way, I was arrested with him ~25 years ago for sitting in at an abortion clinic. :o)

A man with six kids having a *gasp* job? What a ridiculous idea. Stupid woman.

Senator Robert F. Kennedy (D-NY) had 10 kids, and no one ever faulted him for that.

I’d say that a father that can raise 6 kids is UNIQUELY qualified to deal with the whiny, gimme, gimme, gimme segment of his constituency; & will quickly be able to discern the adults from the children.

As a person with many siblings I can say it: the father of a big brood is usually a CAN DO person, and not to be taken lightly.

The Left is so proud to spout, “The children are our future.”

“They just aren’t YOUR future.”

That's like saying a hockey mom with 5 kids (including a baby) couldn't be governor of the largest state in the Union and be successful at it, or at anything else she has done since then...oh, wait a minute...

Mary Beth Buchanan doesn’t need a brain or common sense.

If elected, she will just follow 0haha’s planned destruction of a viable America. That is a no brainer for her.

Careful, expressing support by posting pictures or positive comments, for Sarah will draw out the PDS sufferers and Palin-Haters.

They’re starting to act more and more irrational.

The more relevant point is that we DO NOT NEED FULL TIME LEGISLATORS!
