... except that they put it in writing and managed to get it leaked.
He is from Munster IN and was very accessible as Indiana Secy. of State. Agree hit piece on conservative. The only one benefitting from this is Joe Donnelly.
Donnelly got in b/c establishment Indiana GOPE took their ball and went home after Lugar was upset by Richard Mourdock in primary. At that time, Lugar was deciding vote not to filibuster Kagan as USSC nominee. Indiana GOPE did nothing to help Mourdock
Messer was a Boehner acolyte.
It is not the demands per se that are offensive; it is the fact that we are paying for it that is offensive. The arrogant a$$holes that are in the Fake Congress forget that WE are their masters, not the other way around.
BTW, all I need to know is they accept no responsibility. “Edson blamed the memo leak on Rokita’s presumptive Senate challenger, Rep. Luke Messer (R-Ind.)”
It probably is, which is why strong conservatives should avoid putting themselves in situations that leave them open to hit pieces. The concept is nothing new. Remember when Bill Clinton avoided the draft then signed up after it ended in order to maintain his political viability?
sorry this is a fart in the wind
New York hit piece on an Indiana Republican looking to unseat the incumbent Democrat Senator
Not to put too fine a point on it, but personally I prefer Altoids to gum And I like coffee iced - Dunkin Donuts Iced Black with a shot of mocha.
I agree. Seems more like a hit piece than anything else.
It’s not like the guy is asking for a red carpet to be laid out everywhere he goes and for people to divert their eyes as he passes (as Hillary reportedly did). He wants pens, gum and hand sanitizer and the driver not to stop short when he has coffee in his hand. Oooh! What a scandal!
Uh -- whut?
I've heard of the conservative movement being hampered by voters who won't support someone who isn't a "100% conservative purist," but this is the first time I've heard of someone state that a "100% conservative purist" voting record is irrelevant. WTF?
lol....OK. No Dunkin around here, but some very good coffee huts that are not SBX.
As a former corporate secretary /admin, I’ve worked for some pretty demanding bosses. Execs Personal preferences were whispered among the staff. Imagine what shareholders would think if nit picky demands were leaked!!!
Stupid stupid stupid.
This guy fits right in.
Do some research on Queen Sheila Jackson-lee.
After reading the post to which you are responding here I decided this was an argument probably not worth pursuing.
Your mileage may vary.
So what’s it pay?
I’d do it for $160,000 a year.
Then again you never know, maybe someone else with an axe to grind is just making stuff up...
But, but John Kasich is just a humble son of a mailman!
“maybe he is an ass. If he votes the way we want, then at least he’s *our* ass.”
Yes.
Pence guy
kellyanne Conway hired his chief of staff. Lamecherry said it was to get protection from what she called Indiana mafia
If he is paying enough for the job, I guess he can demand anything he wants.
That’s what I was wondering. Its easy to paint a picture with adjectives, as easy as it is to paint the opposite picture with a different set using the same facts.
The Left is tricksy and may want to take down this guy.
Basically this man took the time to let his aides what they need to remember to be prepared and what he would be expecting from them. I don’t know the guy but letting the drivers know you are planning to work in the car so the don’t feel that they should chat to show they are friendly sounds fine to me. Its exactly what Tillerson did to the press.
