Mcconnell is a whore... that word describes him and his cohorts perfectly as they sell their souls for 30 pieces of silver.

In another post, I blasted Bevin for NOT explaining McConnell’s charge about “padding his resume” about attending MIT.
I’m happy now.. to see that Matt HAS addressed this issue on his website..

I still wish he’d run some ads to explain this... but, I guess he needs money. Well, I SENT HIM SOME TONIGHT!
And, I hope to spend more.. and, donate time.
Enough, is enough. Mitch MUST go!

Just a coincidence I’m sure this 2 billion in pork ended up in Ohio and Kentucky.
Ok, I'm not defending McConnell, but consider this. Obama, Reid and their thugs are really playing for keeps here. What better way to drive GOP primary voters to vote against McConnell and Boehner in their primaries than to sneak a big pork project that covers two of their main oppositions' home states into a funding bill? Making it look like there was a kickback.
I've been observing politics long enough that this looks and smells like a serious setup intended to drive an even bigger wedge between McConnell, Boehner and their Conservative constituents.
Feel free to rip McConnell and Boehner to shreds on all the other valid issues out there, and to support the true Conservative candidates. But keep in mind that the Dems are waging a divide-and-conquor war and keep things like this in their proper perspective.

Consider this: we should be so lucky if we can get rid of Bonehead and McConnell. While we are at it, I’d love to get rid of my two senators, Corker
and Alexander.
To: tanknetter
If Boner wasn’t in onit he should not bring the Bill forward. We shall see.
