| Smilin' Irish Eyes User ID: 656642 06/14/2010 01:24 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | What if that had been the question posed to Etheridge? Quoting: Anonymous Coward 973305Would some level of equivocation be acceptable in that case? And, Supreme Arbiter of Yes/No-ness, I presume that an acceptable answer to the actual question would have been "Yes, I do. I'm a spineless lackey with no capacity for independent action, who does what Nancy Pelosi tells me. Thank you for capturing this reality on video." We can all play "would have, could have, should have" and many other what if scenarios BUT THAT WAS NOT the question. It was basically as you stated to get him on tape stating: "Yes, I do. I'm a spineless lackey with no capacity for independent action, who does what Nancy Pelosi tells me. Thank you for capturing this reality on video." So when Etheridge would have tried to distance himself from Obama and Pelosi this November by smooth talking rhetoric this video would have shown how he kow-tows to Pelosi's and Obama's madness. Point made. He didn't want to answer if he supports Obama because he does know that supporting Obama or Pelosi is political suicide.

Should we bomb the shit out of Iran? Well, Obama is ALREADY Guilty of War Crimes by EXECUTING suspected terrorists without a trial via Predator Hellfire missiles in Afghanistan ... what's a few more Obama Executions in Iran, right?! But since you brought it up, here's Congressman Etheridge (D - NC) Etheridge's flip-flops on War & Peace: * Voted YES on investigating Bush impeachment for lying about Iraq. (Jun 2008) * Voted NO on redeploying US troops out of Iraq starting in 90 days. (May 2007) * Voted YES on declaring Iraq part of War on Terror with no exit date. (Jun 2006) * Voted YES on approving removal of Saddam & valiant service of US troops. (Mar 2004) * Voted YES on authorizing military force in Iraq. (Oct 2002) BTW, you look absolutely . |
