If this idiot is talking to CNN, then we don’t need the little whiner.

Another establishment jack ball Pollyanna. Nothing was stopping this guy from doing his job. No one tied him down interrogating him.

"They assume that you're not telling the truth.

You're damn right I don't believe you're telling the truth. Ya gotta prove yourself today. Did Pollyanna think after nearly 30 years of deep seated widespread criminal corruption in D.C., the American people were in a warm and fuzzy mood?

Think again Pollyanna.

He’s not running for reelection because he knows he cannot win. He’s taking a parting shot at President Trump on his way out the door, because he is a RINO.

Sounds like an excuse as good as any.
Now, tell WTP the real reason you’re leaving, not that you’ll be missed.

Rino liar.
The newly redistricted 6th Congressional District is unwinnable by a Republican. He knows that, but is saying it “because Trump.” Good riddance.

The guy is leaving Congress because the Pennsylvania Supreme Court overruled the Republican redistricting map and made his district Democrat.

By the time November gets here, his new district, might become deplorable and even vote that way.

Excellent news.

This is the text of a note I sent this RINO in response to his "Ryan Report':

"“I read your Ryan Report this morning, which I don't often do, having pretty much given up on the ability of government to do much good. I did have to smile, however, at the well-intentioned efforts to legislate goodness in a godless society, which sadly describes the state of America today.

America, once blessed of God, has abandoned God, and will not be blessed again unless she returns to God.

Government is the heavy hand that comes down to compel goodness when men fail to regulate their own behavior, and the most efficient and effective way to ensure goodness is to have it spring within the soul of men, not legislated piecemeal by well-meaning yet imperfect men and women in government.

I appreciate your efforts Congressman, but what America needs is not more government but more God.

We need the government to recognize our true roots as a Christian nation and reshape every segment of our society to conform to the vision of our Founding Fathers.

Repentance and revival, starting with Congress, would be an excellent start.”

Well... I suppose that’s one way of saying “I’m a compromised swamp drain sludge ball and I’m getting out while the getting is good”...

The young moderate has broken with the GOP’s leadership

That makes him even less desirable than even the the GOPe (wasn't even aware that was possible). Goodbye & good riddance you worthless POS.

"Costello noted that the Pennsylvania Supreme Court decision that redrew his district, in a move Republicans believe will make the district more Democratic, was also part of the reason he decided to leave Congress. "I'm 41. I have an 8-month old. I have a 4-year old. I just lost half my congressional district. The state Supreme Court decided that they were going to try and take me out," Costello charged."

One thing about the RATS, they stick to their party with their lies through thick and thin. While the pubbies are the least loyal and more apt to be traitors.
