I saw her on TV last night and she is claiming that no such AGO was written during her 12 years. Is it possible that the Sec of State memo was written in 1996 and cited an AGO from pre-1992?
The Democrats need to learn how to lose.
Doah!
So does this mean that the suit will be thrown out because the plaintiffs lack standing without the candidate on board? Somehow I think if that motion were maid we'd discover that, all of a sudden, Gregoire does support the suit after all.
So this is the Geraldine Ferraro "I'm not guilty--I'm merely incompetent!" reasoning as to why people should want her in office?
She said she had no role. She doesn't say she doesn't support it.
No.
How insulting that she thinks we're going to believe this. She becomes more pathetic every day.
Besides jumping the shark, she does a mean Sgt. Shultz impersination: "I know NOTHING! I saw NOTHING!!"
She's a doozie, old baggie eyes!
"The Democrats need to learn how to lose."
You'd think they'd have by now.. Sure have a lot of practice.
I used to call it "SID"...when I was wondering what the least offensive assumption was for some people when they said things...were they:
*Stupid (couldn't see why their statement was wrong)
*Ignorant (didn't know enough information to see why)
*Dishonest (knew it was wrong, but said it anyway)
I later added one more, to make it "SIDE" (which is easier to remember, anyway)... the last one was "Evil"
I think you might be on to something for Gregoire.
In an interview yesterday morning, SecState Sam Reed stated that the SecState in 1996 probably had the opinion laying around from a previous AG, but the standard practice is to take that old opinion, run it by the AG's office to see if it is still valid (i.e. the laws havn't changed etc...) then release the opinion if there are no changes, or release the new opinion...
So the bottom line is that the opinion DID get reviewed by the AG's office in 1996 - whether Gregoire saw it personally is irrelevant. She was the AG at the time and is responsible for her office and underlings. Of course, she's been ducking responsiblity in her office for years, so...
Hmmm....
Questions? Comments? Anything I can help with? :)
Interesting comparison....
You betcha:
Where did the interview take place?
Speaking of SecState Reed, he is on TVW today at 11 AM and 3 PM on "Inside Olympia" - and TVW will rerun that some more. Go to www.tvw.org for more...
I really think it's not right to be bashing Senator Hillary Clinton left, right and center. NOW I know why I despise your party - you attack outspoken women with a viciousness that is second to none.
Senator Clinton deserves no comparision to Gregoire - she's a patriot who'd NEVER steal an election, bless her heart.
Hasn't the poor Senator been through enough?
(For the record: Because of reactions like yours, I would prefer that she not run for Prez in 2008. And Virginia Gov'r Mark Warner is more harmonous with my positions and priorities...)
