Shea-Porter Rocks...
Monday, February 26, 2007 at 11:35AM in her head?
The more I think about it, Congressman Carol Shea-Porter-Swett may have a point with her evolving Iraq positions! Really!
I have given some very serious thought to her “I support the troops but not the mission” scheme and have been dashed upon the rocks of her logic. It was like a beam of light hit me. Bam!
‘I would never stop spending money on the troops while they are there.” she says during the campaign. But now that she is pals with the likes of “Bribe-master” Jack Murtha the picture has changed. We CAN cut funding for troops in combat and not have dire consequences.
Now I have to publicly admit I too have some issues I feel could benefit from Shea-Porter-Swett-Pretzel-logic. Check these out:
I support old people and Social security – I really do. I just don't want to pay for it. It was a risky scheme when we went in with 30 people paying for one retiree. But now is a different story, two workers for every retiree, who knew that would happen? So on with the mission of federal retirement payments for people who went into the program – just cut the funding. We pull our money out – they put their money back in. Problem solved.
Count me in as a big, big supporter of helping people with expensive medical costs as well. I have a ton of sympathy for them. But Medicare? I feel we have spent enough already. What harm would be done if we just stopped tomorrow. If we stopped funding it and let the people themselves take over – well that would benefit everybody. We were tricked by liberal Democrats into creating Medicare and now is the time to get out.
Talk about helping children. I am “numero uno” in that regard amigo. And I feel the Federal Government is doing a great job. If only we didn't have to use valuable tax dollars to fund the department of education.
Now for the biggie. The reason all of us exist. Our commitment to the United Nations. Do I have to waste everyone's time repeating what a huuuuuge supporter of one world government I am? Didn't think so. But paying for it? Come on now. If we stopped sending all the money we do to the dashiki-draped, diaper-headed, bribe taking, con artists in New York's enclave of foreign spies it wouldn't hurt them a bit. The mission – I wholly, emphatically, unwaveringly support would carry on just fine. Mission yes – money no!
Now for more Shea-Porter-Logic quotes:
"We sent our soldiers on a mission that made no sense from the beginning," she said. "There were no Iraqis on the plane [referring to Sept. 11] and there were no [weapons of mass destruction]."
“Our nation was attacked by people in Afghanistan," she said. "We should be working even harder there to make sure our mission does not fail."
Facts: Of the 19 hijackers all but two were from Saudi Arabia. The other two were from Egypt and UAE.
Let's de-fund the war and pull out of Afghanistan now while we are de-funding the troops in Iraq. This is the “CHANGE” NH voters wanted last November.
Go for it Carol. I'm coming around to your way of feeling.

Hi, How's it going?
Sounds like you just figured out what "starve the beast" is all about. ( I know better--just having a little fun )
She is the perfect candidate for this House seat on the Democrat side.
I just wish she would make more public statements and sit behind other House members speaking on C-Span and giggle like a school girl more often.
It is a refeshing look at the liberal left soccer mom crowd.
Look up the word misogyny
You'd be alot better off if you just did things like the Ron Paul piece, but you can do whatever the hell you want, Ed.
It just makes me laugh that people acting like you are apparently the last chance for the dying NHGOP.
My comments section is stuck in
"silly-responce" mode.
I contacted Norton to see if I can get a patch of some sort.
My side hurts from laughing. Not that you're being fair to the Congresswoman, who is giving her peace-loving constituents the only real representation they've had in years, but damn this was still funny.
By appealing to soccer mom logic, these skillfully crafted arguments for defunding social programs will no doubt guarantee the success of the taxpayer movement!
MAD MAX
Glad you agree.
I wouldn't want anyone to think I was being anti-elderly for simply de-funding Social Security.
Or anti-one-world-government re-deploying the UN to Zambia or something.
Just trying to adhere to the fine congresswoman's technique of cutting funding for the troops and still being patriotic and all.
Note*
My "taxpayer movement" begins March 13.
I am NOT sexist at all. I totally support soccer mom congresswomen. Like totally.
I just don't want to let them vote on things.
Who knew this risky scheme of letting women have the vote would lead to this. It is time re-deploy to all male voting. I am sure if we knew going into this that we were being lied to about letting women become congressmen.
But I support women's rights 100%.
Surely Carol Shea-Porter-Swett would understand my positions.
Take heart, her own people won't support her in '08, they did not even support her THIS time around!
bwwwaaaaahahahahahahahaha!
She-pot bragged during her campign that she came back after college to confront her old Oyster River guidance counsellor about telling her not to go to college?
That is the sign of a nutcase.
I wll take the testimony from the two women who claim she was rude to them.
Sorry. Your candidate should have been less confrontational in her campaign if she wants to be believed now.
But then it is a little too late for that. Isn't it?

Dear Mr. Sutliffe:
Thank you for taking the time to share your thoughts regarding the establishment of English as our national language. English is, indeed, the language of our economy, and a command of the English language contributes greatly to one's ability to succeed financially. I do appreciate hearing your views on this matter, and will keep them in mind should this issue make its way to the House floor.
I am so incredibly pleased, and honored, to be representing you in our nation's capital. As a member of both the House Armed Services Committee and the Committee on Education and Labor, I am confident that we can bring about positive change in Washington for the benefit of our entire nation.
Again, thank you for taking the time to contact me. Please do not hesitate to do so again in the future.
Sincerely
Carol Shea-Porter
Member of Congress
The part of the letter about how pleased she is to be representing you is becoming very noticable in Hodes public comments as well.
They seem to think this is some sort of party or good time job.
