Congressman Paul Kanjorski (D-PA) has been a fairly undistinguished member of the House of Representatives for nearly a quarter of a century. He is a career member of the Financial Services Committee who has made little or no name for himself since his first electoral victory, and has maintained incumbency through the funneling of pork back to his district. Even his Wikipedia entry says that Kanjorski "usually plays behind-the-scenes roles in the advocacy or defeat of legislation and steers appropriations money toward improving the infrastructure and economic needs of his district."
But [in] the temptation to want to win back the Congress, we sort of stretched the facts - and people ate it up.Never one to stand out in a crowd outside of his own district if he could help it up until now, Rep. Kanjorski's public life may be about to change in a major way very, very quickly, and for a very big reason.
You see, Paul Kanjorski has an honesty problem.
More specifically, Paul Kanjorski's problem is that he was publicly honest about the intentional dishonesty of Congressional Democrats (and Democrat candidates) in the run-up to the 2006 election -- particularly with regard to the War in Iraq.

at some hearings, democrats have used the word nazi in the same sentence when referring to republicans. they have called president bush an illegitimate president and treated him as such. they have criminalized opposing points of view and behaved as if those who expressed them were criminals. they have have called the president a liar, countless times, and have demeaned the presidency. they have criminalized large groups of people through the tax code and called it social justice. now, one of their members admits that they “stretched” the truth.
if one were to refer to democrats as low-life scu&bags it would be an understatement.
The Dems didn't stop the war because they didn't want to end their political careers.
How to steal an election.
This is called TREASON to “stretch the facts” in a way that gives aid and comfort to our enemies in a time of war. Check your constitution.

It won't be a moment to soon either. You can fool some of the people some of the time.......
