Sen. Blumenthal expresses regret for attending Communist awards show

Democratic Connecticut Sen. Richard Blumenthal said in an interview on Friday that he regretted attending a communist award show last week.

The senator spoke at the Amsted Award ceremony on Dec. 11, where he honored the recipients with an honorary certificate. Speakers at the event regularly encouraged attendees to register with the Communist Party.

"My understanding was that this ceremony was strictly a labor event,’' Blumenthal said Friday in a telephone interview with the Hartford Courant. "If I had known the details, I wouldn’t have gone. ... Let me just say very emphatically, I’m a Democrat and a strong believer in American capitalism. I have been consistently a Democrat and a strong supporter and believer in American capitalism.’'

Are we even sure he attended the event? He didn’t go to Vietnam.

People can't help the face they are born with...

But every time I see him I think of:

Can't help your face, but you can help lying about your service record. And, if you lie about one thing, how much more likely are you to lie about another??? He knew.

Did he vote in the past year with the Dims 100 percent of the time????

Sure, he’s a capitalist, he was just trying to be nice voting for Marxist-like bills.

Apparently Blumenthal and his staff are too stupid to Google the groups he speaks at.

If Blumenthal had a sense of honor, he would have resigned and committed suicide in shame, rather than lying yet more. His insistence on being “consistently a Democrat” is all too true.
He needs to go NOW.

I’m a happily married man and am faithful to my wife.

But let me say emphatically that if I knew she wanted to have
sex, I would have never gone with her to her apartment.
