Start looking for a solid conservative replacement NOW.
I would imagine the tragic death of his son, combined with the recurrence of his prostate cancer put his priorities in a new, differ ent and sharper perspective.
The old timers from both parties appear to have become sickened by the corrupt, America-hating Congress that we have now.
I liked the guy. A lot. Until he went wobbly on me.
Godspeed to Senator Tom Coburn as he transitions into the next chapter of his life. He has cared for his patients, delivered thousands of babies, and fought the good fight for conservatives. Time to take care of himself.
Who can blame Coburn? Washington is broken beyond repair. He recommended $250 BILLION in easy cuts the GOP should get behind...and instead they spend $1.1 TRILLION on a 1,500-page bill they didn’t read, while screwing vets and rewarding illegals. What’s the point of staying?
From the article: His resignation is certain to draw the interest of a deep bench of ambitious Republicans in Oklahoma. State law requires the governor to call a special election in the case of a vacancy.
Jim Bridenstine: You Okies gotta do two things ... get him in the Senate (he's another Ted Cruz) ... and find another on like him to fill the Oklahoma First Congressional seat!
You owe it to yourselves and your country!
The GOP is the first line of defense for the Commie ‘Rats.
It’s official, Coburn is resigning but not anytime soon.
OK law allows the special election to take place before the resignation will go into effect, correct? Just like in 1994
