Congressman King is my congressman. He's not from the Five Town area. His district is from western Suffolk County to mid Nassau County on the south shore. He was head of the Homeland Security committee in Congress.

Dems and Muslims are targeting him. He won reelection, but they made it harder. Nassau County is leaning Dem now with the only judges who got in had the "Working Family" party endorsement as a 2nd line.

Peter King has my support. He called out the Muslims after 9/11 once he found out the leaders of the biggest Mosque in Nassau County was supporting Jihad. They've teamed with the Dems ever since to get him.

Too bad King was a longtime supporter of terrorism before 9/11.

On a national level, King is probably most famous for teaming up with Senator Clinton to help kill the UAE ports deal.

Peter King is a RINO jerk. He is right on a handful of issues like abortion and illegal immigration, but a stopped clock is always right twice a day. Peter King generally votes the "party line" because he has to, but will happily side with the Dems whenever his vote is not needed. For example, his record on guns and government spending is extremely poor. He adores government handouts and even votes with the NAACP about 40% of the time.

Peter King is a media whore and loves whoever is "popular" at the time. When Clinton had sky-high approval ratings, Peter King came on TV and defended Slick Willie tooth-and-nail, even gloating he would find "35 to 40" Republicans to stop impeachment (the actual number of RINOs who sided with him turned out to be four) When Bush had sky-high approval ratings, Pete King came on TV and defended HIM tooth-and-nail. Once Bush's "popularity" began to fault, King quickly reversed course and stabbed Bush in the back ("They'll be sorry they did this to New York."), attacking the Bush administration for "corruption" and promising to launch a congressional Probe into "orgies" at the CIA ( BTW, there have been NO allegations that ANYONE at the CIA ever engaged in "orgies.") if he didn't get additional pork barrel spending for NYC.

Peter King is unabashedly a long-time terrorist sympathizer... as long as the terrorists are Irish instead of Muslim. A terrorist is still a terrorist.

He is a condescending and arrogant jerk who should have been taken out in the primary over six years ago. We'd do a lot better in that district if we had a Republican who wasn't so obnoxious and shallow. Peter King has proven the only person he is loyal to is Peter King.

The RATs did takeover all the local offices in the area in 2006, but this is not indicative that the area now "leans Democrat" because the GOP their butts whupped EVERYWHERE in 2006, even in some "safe" Republican areas. Otherwise, King's district is a swing area that is marginally Republican. Dems win 2/3rds of New York State as a whole, but in King's region, Hilderbeast lost both Nassau and Suffolk to Rick Lazio. Bush essentially tied Kerry, 49%-49% in the area, and George Pataki won both Nassau and Suffolk in all three of his Governor's races, and in 2006, Jeanine Pirro won in Suffolk in her A.G. race while getting her butt kicked in the rest of the state.

If the GOP ran a decent, likeable candidate with crossover appeal, they could rid themselves of RINO scumbag Peter King and keep this district in GOP hands for the foreseeable future. An example to look at is when backstabbing RINO leach Amo Houghton was succeeded by the generally faithfully conservative Randy Kuhl in New York's 29th. Kuhl is very low key and quietly conservative. He won handily and even survived the Dem onslaught of 2006. Clearly we did not "need" backstabbing Houghton to "hold the seat for the GOP"
