Virginia Foxx: Hypocrite of the highest order

Via email from the Wicked Witch of the West, under the title: Bi-partisan legislation is the best hope for 2008

While there were nearly 1200 votes in 2007, very little was accomplished and what was accomplished came in the flurry of activity at the end of the session. Partisan posturing sucked the oxygen out of the legislative air and plenty of good compromise legislation languished in 2007. I am returning to the 2008 session with much hope that this year we can focus on the needs of the people of the 5th District and America and work in a bi-partisan fashion.

Representative Foxx, I hereby and officially call bullshit on your press release and your long-standing record of divisive partisan voting. Just in case you can't read, from what I can tell, you voted in a bi-partisan fashion exactly 8 times in 2007 (two were motions to adjourn) and not once in 2005 when the Party of Greed was in control.

In other words, Representative Foxx, you are a hypocrite of the highest order. And you should be embarrassed to be caught trying to pull the wool over your constituents' eyes.

It is not enough to understand, or to see clearly. The future will be shaped in the arena of human activity, by those willing to commit their minds and their bodies to the task. RFK

Thanks, LoftT. This is hilarious.

TrueMeckDem on Myers Park Pat

"My opinion of Pat has changed over the years. I used to think he was truly a man of the people but the longer he has been mayor, the less I think of him.

As with most cities, Charlotte has three political parties: Dem, Rep, and Chamber of Commerce. Pat is definitely the puppet of the COC here. What is good for business is good for Charlotte and Pat ... very personable guy, he has gotten a bunch of Dems in these parts to vote for him but I don't trust him."
