What Is Your Opinion Of Pete King (R-GOP-e NY)?
10/6/2013 | Laissez-Faire Capitalist

Posted on 10/06/2013 11:42:56 AM PDT by Laissez-faire capitalist

What is your opinion of Pete King? Is he doing the attack conservatives first, then maybe one day he will get around to attacking Democrats?

Is the House GOP on a kamikaze mission with the government shutdown?

Is he blaming the GOP when he should be blaming the Democrats?

Obama is the one acting like an autocrat who says that he gets to decide who is exempt and who isn't.

Obama: 1.) Big Business is exempt 2.) Fat-cats in the Senate & House of Reps get taxpayer-funded subsidies for ObamaCare 3.) No defunding of ObamaCare. 4, 5, 6...

Repubs, otoh: 1.) They compromise from defunding to a one-year exemption for individuals (just like Obama is doing for Big Business), 2.) no tax-payer funding for fat-cats in Congress, along with all of the other compromises they are trying to make with Obama. 3.) The rest of gov't is funded. 4, 5, 6...

The exemption for Big Business is costing at least 80% of what an exemption for individuals would cost.

Looks like Obama is defunding ObamaCare.

His positions are what you'd expect from one of the few remaining Republicans from the Northeast in Congress.

The reason he's so vocal and visible on television has more to do with his personality. Fame and attention can become addictive.

Another reason we need Term Limits....Politics should not be a career.

King is doing exactly what can be expected from a New York republican. Expecting anything else is an exercise in futility.

I disagree. Pete King is a Republican in the tradition of Rep. Vito Marcantonio (R-NY). New York Republicans can do much better, especially in a district that not long ago was represented by Conservative/Republican Rick Lazio.

This.

I used to have tremendous respect for him for his work against Islamofascism. At one time, he wasn’t afraid to stand up to the CAIR’s (or whatever it’s called now) or to call radical Islam what it is: Islamofascism.

He has now shown his true, Northeast moderate, er, liberal, colors. He’s no conservative, but it’s time that we all understand that this—he—is what the GOP now stands for. He isn’t in the minority.

He’s a bulldog on anti-terrorism, a turkey on just about everything else.

It’s all in perspective. From way out on the left Cruz is an evil arch conservative. From my vantage point Cruz is a mainline conservative with the courage of his convictions.

He is Chuck Schummer’s long lost twin who claims to be a conservative. Don’t’ make the mistake of getting between either one of them and a camera.

He is very much against illegal immigration. Right now PPP says 24 republican house incumbents are trailing hypothetical Dem challengers. While PPP is a Dem firm they are quite accurate. If we lose the house with Obama in the white house we lose the country probably for good. Amnesty will pass and all immigration enforcement will be dead. We may need him to help get us out of this yet.

The media always had him on tv because they could easily portray him as a racist, xenophobic neanderthal conservative. Now they have him on because he trashes all conservatives who dont want massive government surveillance or unlimited government giveaways.
