Here we go again, our very own, in this case,(former) REPUBLICAN elected official stabbing us in the back again. To those who are not from NJ, Garabed "Chuck" Haytaian was also the former Speaker of the NJ Assembly and Candidate for US Senate. As Speaker, he refused to post any pro-life and pro-family legislation.

Some often ask me why I won't support any more republican state legislative candidates, well, this is one of the reasons why, they are all two-faced, liberal RINO's. Also, many worked AGAINST Bret Schundler because he was a reformer and not from the "good old boys" network. They doubled the state's debt in 8 years, increased the budget from 15 Billion to 24 Billion and made it impossible in NJ to own and carry a gun. And, it was co-Senate president John O. Bennett who threw a monkey wrench into the passing of the parental notification amendment this past year.

Haytaian, who now works as a consultant and lobbyist, says that the $2,000 contribution was made at the request of one of his clients, Oxford Health Plan.

Hmm. I thought straw man donations were illegal.

[OldFriend]

Us dumb taxpayers paid off a sexual harrassment suit against this low life....thanks to Christie Whitman authorizing the payment. Pitiful!

Is this legal?

Traitor!

[Digger]

Let's repeat this again ---The "Two-Party Cartel". Repeat again & again. Now, are you understanding this issue. They are the same.. They have their "no competition" fiefdom. They each steal your money the same. And 98% get voted back in to take more of your freedoms. And when anyone outside the "Cartel" tries to run, ie Nader, Buchanan, they all come down upon then with a vengence.

[Coleus]

That's right I forgot about that one.

[Coleus]

Is there an active unit of the Constitution Party in NJ? I think I will join it if there is one.

Man you guy's have got to get real. This is done all the time. Republicans give to Democrats, Democrats give to Republicans, Corporations give to both. Like it or not. Don't like it change it.

[Coleus]

Don't like it change it.
>>>>Now you get real. Many people in NJ are just too busy making money (we are the hub of the financial, pharmaceutical, chemical and telecommunications industries) and are not phased by, or interested in politics. Nothing is going to change here.

He wasn't just any Republican giving to a Democrat because it was good for his business. He was also the FORMER CHAIRMAN of the STATE REPUBLICAN PARTY. You would think he would have some sense of loyalty to the PARTY HE WAS THE LEADER OF!!!

Most NJ elected Republicans are like that. However, there is one good and decent Republican running in NJ who needs our support. That is Scott Garrett. Please go to his website and help out.

[Cacique]

Never mind New Jersey. Through a process of Osmosis the Repblican and Democtratic parties are becoming the Repubricratic Party and difficult to tell apart anymore.

It's no accident that RINO's decry the existence of conservatives and wish we'd go away. We need to take the party over starting at the grassroots local level, work our way up and purge the party of anyone who is a RINO.

[Coleus]

Scott Garrett for Congress, Conservative Republican, Kindly Donate to his Campaign Fund, thank you.

[Exit148]

Well, we are learning early who to trust and who not. I hope any other r--finks will be as easy to detect!

So then either do something yourself or except it as a fact of life, give your hard earned money to the guy or gal you like. But stop calling people traitors, because you disagree with they're political views. That is not real world. Do you mean to tell me George W. Bush never, ever gave money to a Democrat running for office? I'd think you would be surprised.

"Most NJ elected Republicans are like that. However, there is one good and decent Republican running in NJ who needs our support. That is Scott Garrett. Please go to his website and help out."

Yes most politicians are like that. Now support the guy you want. If Garrett is a Conservative support him, though in NJ that's like having the plague.

Re: Bush, SURPRISE ME.

Oh, I'm active all right, in the pro-gun, pro-life, anti-UN movements and am on the inside in the republican party trying to change things from within.

[PoppingSmoke]

"Re: Bush, SURPRISE ME."

I am sure that the President has supported a democrat or two in his day. I would not find this shocking at all. It's politics. Whether he did personally or had an organization do it makes no difference. Maybe one day someone will have the nerve to ask him.

Oh, I'm active all right, in the pro-gun, pro-life, anti-UN movements and am on the inside in the republican party trying to change things from within.

Good for you. If this is what you wish and believe, take no prisoners. Revolution from within is sometimes a good thing. Good Luck!
