You are changing the argument. I said running for president while holding another public office.
Pols who simply run for re-election do so by performing their job and traveling amongst their constituency.
But thanks for the meaningless scream caps.
“You are changing the argument. I said running for president while holding another public office.”
And I already said ‘big deal’ and pointed out that it is commonly done, is NOT unethical, nothing underhanded or dishonest in a public official who can walk and chew gum at the same time, it just happens to be something you apparently don’t like to see.
The comparison of every politician who run for re-election fits, because it is the same set of actions.
“Pols who simply run for re-election do so by performing their job and traveling amongst their constituency.”
oh so THAT’S what obama’s black bus was, and his speech with ‘take em out’ Hoffa ... ‘doing his job’. riiight.
So Obama can be president while the economy burns and run for re-election, using taxpayer money for his campaign stops no less, but Perry cant manage being a Governor with the lege not even in session? What a double-standard.
Again, you are entitled to your opinion about not liking this common practice, but its just plain wrong to call this common practice ‘unethical’. Its not.
