There is a lady who is a true Conservative running for Governor of Texas and, in the polls, she is closing in on Ted Kennedy's girlfriend, Kay Bailey Hutchison. Her name is Debra Medina. Check out her website:

I still have not found any evidence (after looking) that Medina supported Sotamayer. Do you have any? Anywhere? I can’t find it. All I have are comments from others, hearsay.

Her gun registration quote—I find the quote confusing. Maybe she was mixing up Fed records of FFL sales, which are, I suspect, kept forever without our knowledge. I do not know why you want me to comment on it, but here it is: “that’s strange, Texas does not have gun registration; why is a Gov candidate bringing it up?”

[Stat-boy]

“Another example of a typical Medinabot; tell a lie by omission then haul ass.”

What are you talking about? I was talking about Medina/Sotomayer.

I thought we were done. If you were waiting on a reply from me, sorry, I had to run. Dinner with friends from out of town, and took 2 of the kids fishing today.

[Stat-boy]

Very funny. Feel better?

Well, Phil, I was referring to taking a course for license to carry a hand gun, not a hunting license.
I see. You were rather vague in your reply.
Have a nice day, bea and enjoy the game tomorrow, if you're a football fan that is.

I was pointing out that many Medina supporters when questioned or proven wrong run and hide.

Several on this thread have.

As to Sotamayer, I read where Medina chastised Hutchison for not backing her. If I can find the links again I will post them however I wouldn’t doubt they have been scrubbed.

tell a lie by omission then haul ass.

You had stated previously you respect Medina supporters here on FR. Below is a perfect example of one of them getting caught lying then running.

To: Eaker

This will be my last exchange with you, Eaker...don’t expect me to respond to any of your posts and “have a nice day.”

Yet you claim to have killed a deer with one?
That wasn't a claim, it was a pot shot.
(don't stick your neck out or you'll get shot down)
Nothing more, nothing less.
That's some more of that reading between the lines, just like the "shooting rats in the barn" is another euphemism.

And the game goes on...

From that debate link above at #188...
PMR: In August, you posted an article called "Latinos and the GOP" on your campaign website, which many conservatives would find troubling. You seemed to be criticizing Kay Bailey Hutchison for voting against Sonia Sotomayor on the Supreme Court, and saying that her vote will make it harder to attract Hispanics to the GOP.
Snip...DM: Kay Bailey Hutchison was absolutely correct to vote against Sotomayor; the problem I was addressing is that the GOP has treated Latinos so poorly for so long that George Lopez was able to characterize this as a racially motivated "no" vote instead of a "no" vote based on the fact she was the wrong candidate on the issues.

She sure has an opinion. I don't agree with it, but she can sure have it.
As I said, she's pandering to a specific subset for votes.
"I sympathize with you and your plight, you poor mistreated things, and the others don't, so vote for me." (like good emotional zombies)
The vatos aren't loco, though they are proud, and they know exactly what she's doing. Talking down to them and playing them as victims isn't going to get their vote. She's the one driving them away instead of bringing them in.

Very funny.

Not sure what you're referring to, but thank you.

Feel better?

I feel fine today, thanks for asking. You?

[philman_36]

I forgot...it was politely intended.
(don't stick your neck out or you'll get shot down, dear deer)
See?

[Stat-boy]

I was referring to the Ton Loc video.

[Stat-boy]

OK, thanks.

[Allegra]

Glad you liked it.

[philman_36]

Further evidence is here...
Don’t you know a typo when you see one???Please forgive and pardon me...I meant to type 257 Weatherby, my favorite deer gun.
How can 357 Magnum be a typo of 257 Weatherby? I could understand 357 Weatherby, but not Magnum. And a handgun is a far cry from a rifle. It's all bogus.

[Eaker]

It's all bogus.

She ain't going to bring a "house full of guns" to the shoot either.

“Yeah, Medina, like Obama would never lie on her own website? “

Read this article and see if she is lying. And if I’m not mistaken you accused me of lying also. I’m still waiting for you to retract that.

I’m still waiting for you to retract that.

Keep an eye on the temperature in hell.

“Keep an eye on the temperature in hell.”
He says as he admits defeat.
