By his claim, She was called in Early AM by Dean and told not to say ANYTHING until about Greensburg until she heard back. A few hours later she was contacted and told to run with the national guard shortage of equipment and men and blame the war in Iraq... which she did.
He then claims she called the R senator and apologized to him on the phone, but that she had no choice and Ds could not let an opportunity like this slip by.
If this is true, ALL OF THEM NEED GONE! People of Kansas should be raiding the governors mansion as I type... if any of this is remotely true, it is time for tar and feathering.
Unfortunately, a number of ordinarily honorable individuals have been browbeaten, blackmailed and coerced by higher-ups in the Dem party into doing and saying things they would not ordinarily.
This of course does not excuse the Governor. If the story is true, I wish she had the spine to tell Dean and his accomplices to go jump in the lake (or something stronger).
I'd highly doubt that.
Why would she call the R senator. That is kind of shooting herself in the foot, isn’t it? I’m not saying I don’t believe this to be true, however it doesn’t make sense for her to call the Senator.
If this were true, why hasn’t the Republican senator admitted to this?
Something like this needs proof.
