Virginia GOP goes on desperation tour, with Hager in the lead... |
|
Jenna Bush's future father-in-law as poster child---I'm lovin' it!!
RICHMOND, Oct. 8 -- The battle for control of the Virginia General Assembly intensified Monday as top Republican and Democratic leaders traded barbs over who is responsible for the strength of the state's economy and whether President Bush should be a factor in voters' decisions this year.
With the Nov. 6 election less than a month away, the rhetoric and campaign promises are increasing as Democrats try to retake the state Senate and make inroads in the GOP-led House of Delegates.
-snip-
The GOP tour included McDonnell, Lt. Gov. Bill Bolling, House Speaker William J. Howell (Stafford) and Senate Majority Leader Walter A. Stosch (Henrico) as well as John H. Hager, chairman of the Virginia Republican Party.
Monday's GOP effort came as party leaders are increasingly concerned that Democrats could pick up the four seats needed to retake the Senate on Nov. 6, when all 140 seats of the legislature are up for reelection.
Democrats, backed by Kaine and Warner, have been arguing that change is needed in the General Assembly because Republicans have been too focused on divisive social issues while not doing enough to enhance the state's quality of life.
But GOP leaders, who called their tour "Republicans for a Reason," said they are the party responsible for keeping taxes low, boosting funding for transportation and having a plan for addressing health care, illegal immigration and education.

Instead of talking about Bush, Hager and GOP leaders said they will focus on what they say are their accomplishments, including cutting taxes and increasing funding for health care and education.
Good luck with that, you saps!!!..:rofl:

1. "Republican for a reason" |
|
From what I'm reading of another republican toe tapping, foot fellating, leg holding public obscenity, they need to keep taxes low to defund those pesky sting operations in public restrooms.
"Republican for a reason" Yeah, to wrap yourselves in a "family values" cover, attempting to hide pedophilia, corruption and an absolute warehouse of other public corruption and double-dealing.
"Republican for a reason" Sure, another attempt to further corrode our fascist republic until nothing is left but a few million ultra rich and a few billion feudal slaves, living in abject misery and too poor to rise up and fix the problem.
"Republican for a reason" Yeah, sure. No self-respecting democratic organization would have your skanky a$$es and there's nowhere else with people dumb enough to say something nice about you. Nowhere else could you run your sly scams. Not to try to be arrogant or an elitist braggart, but "Republican for the same reason" for the same reason that the average IQ is 100. Fully half the population of the world is below average.
"Republican for a reason" (snort!) sho' nuff! Reason enough.
