Senator Paul Kirk angers critics with Martha Coakley nod [Dem Lies]
The Boston Herald | 1/8/10 | Hillary Chabot

Posted on 01/08/2010 5:49:15 AM PST by Gothmog

"State Republicans blasted interim U.S. Sen. Paul Kirk yesterday after he broke a legislative promise to stay out of the U.S. Senate election and endorsed Attorney General Martha Coakley over GOP candidate Sen. Scott Brown."

[skip paragraph]

"Kirk said he didn’t think twice before endorsing Coakley, even though the Legislature reversed Bay State laws and allowed Gov. Deval Patrick to appoint him based on the promise he would stay neutral."

[pragraphs excerpted]

MA lawmakers included "a resolution to the controversial bill blocking the appointee from 'endorsing any candidate in the special election.' The language is nonbinding because legislators can’t legally prevent anyone from running for office. But Democrats vowed that the appointee would honor legislative wishes."

Typical dems, blithely breaking promises whenever it suits them. If this story gets any traction it should help Brown a little with those sick of politcians' broken promises, in particular independents.

Where were these people when they were supposed to file a court challange to Kirk's appointment?

Complaining when a Democrat acts like a Democrat is useless.

Here is a simple way to discren all spewings from the mouths of Democrats:
DEMOCRATS ARE LIARS!

'nuf said. Why act surprised at anything they do? Reasons?

1. They are never held to account 97% of the media,
2. their uneducated (urban areas, unions) and, frankly, lazy-brained "educated" base (young college adults and academe) don't think critically about them, and
3. Republicans do not sufficiently take them to task over it--either from fear or (in some cases) because they are afraid of some ethical lapse in their own behavior.

But suffice to say, the Democrats are LIARS. Pure and simple. That is why I am a
Recovering_Democrat.

Yet another proof of the fact that democrats are completely untrustworthy. They will tell any lies they need to get into office, and then without a shred of integrity or shame, do the exact opposite of what they said they’d do, and when called on it, blatently lie some more, saying that they aren’t doing, what they are doing.

Democrat = Lying pig with no morals.

The problem is that the people who vote Democrat really don’t mind lying. So it never bothers them that their candidates are liars.

Nancy Pelosi, 3rd in line for the Presidency, one of the most powerful democrats, offhandedly offers that the President of the United States lied to get elected — and nobody bats an eyelid. Of course, they are still probably wide-eyed over her preposterous claim that the Health Care bill has been the most open process ever in the history of the universe.

The party hack “Senator” Kirk was only appointed to get the evil DeathCare bill passed.

And Ted Kennedy did more to destroy our Republic than almost anyone else (before the obama era), by pushing that open immigration law way back in the 1960s. As a result, we’ve been inundated by wave after wave of Third World immigrants (including unassimilable muslims and Africans), and have been pushed into becoming a Third World country ourselves. The “crown” of the whole process has been the election of the Third-World muslim would-be dictator obama as our President.

The endorsement of the hack Kirk and the spiritually and politically bankrupt Kennedy family means less than nothing. Coakley is herself a robotic party hack, who will do everything Dingy Harry Reid and muslim obama say to do.

If you are outside of Mass, donate to the Scott Brown campaign to defeat DeathCare, cap-and-trade, and other obama outrages to come, and to stand up to muslim terrorism. If you are inside MA, do the same, and then go vote for Brown on the 19th, even if there is a blizzard!!!! Drive your elderly, sick, and disabled friends and neighbors to the polls—it is they who are the first targets of DeathCare. But no matter how young and healthy you are, you’re a target, too!!!!
