Iowa republicans are a bunch of sissies!
When it comes to standing with Tom Delay, who's PAC gave them THOUSANDS of dollars, they choose not to respond.

When the going gets tough, the republicans forget your name!

1. Then they'd have to give back the cash he coughed up for them!
He who keeps his piehole shut, gets to keep the dirty money.

3. But look at the site
They had the choice to go against him, stand with him or wimp out.

Boswell, Latham, King and Nussle wimped out.

I'll give Boswell a break, his staff probably just said no comment since he was in the hospital.

But Latham got over $25,000 from the PAC, King and Nussle each got over $15,000 from his PAC and then their too sissy to stand with the guy?

Leach only got $20.00 and willingly bailed on Delay. Of course, this works in Leach's favor with the Democrats in his district. Don't be fooled though, he voted with Delay over 75% of the time!

5. Leach
Oh this guy makes me gag!

How can a guy who agrees with someone 75% of the time then go on to say the guy isn't fit to be a leader?

What does that say about 75% of this joker's record??

Go get 'em Loebsack!

2. Nussle took about $15,000 from DeLay
and he needs to be called on it. I actually called his sattelite office here in Davenport and suggested that he return the money. The woman who answered the phone was rather nasty and told me in no uncertain terms that that wasn't going to happen. So EVERY Gubernatorial candidate should bring this up again and again.

4. Nussle should be called on the carpet
for his lack of loyalty.

If he'll take money from Delay but then not defend his friend, what will he do for his 'friends' in Iowa when things get tough?

Will he, as our governor (perish the thought), stand up to Washington for Iowa's rights? Or will he take their money and crawl under a rock?

Piece of work (bet you thought I was gonna say something else!) ;)
