TOPS Political Ploy

[Dawgpix]

Yep.

[OLDBLUE]

When a guy runs on being an honorable person and using his military background as a reference you know he is not to be trusted. Communication skills and trust go hand in hand. Hell of a snake oil salesman though.

You nailed it maddawg! He actually dishonors the "honor" he trumpeted.

We have to carefully consider the intent behind words, not be blinded by the shield held up to defer inquiring looks.

Yep- this was a case of being lazy and not looking at his record. Anyone that did their homework or cared could have seen his record was much different than his talk. Too many people are allowing others to do the work and think for them- that's how we got this loser!

You got that RIGHT! I was not going to vote for Vitter, period. But when I really checked into Edwards, Vitter got my vote. The company Edwards keeps should have tipped off anyone.

...what?

[maverick]

My point: He said he said it last night. That was a lie. Why should we believe anything he says when he has told so many lies he can't remember what he said and when?

I see--I didn't realize your point. I don't defend his or anyone else's lies, which is why I had no more confidence in Vitter, who lied until he was caught.

15 years ago...

Nobody complained about the job he did as a US senator. Most people who voted for JBE were too stupid to realize he was a liberal Obama suck up.

I agree Edwards told two different stories on successive days regarding TOPS. But I am also VERY concerned about the state's financial situation. It was aptly described as a HOT mess by a Times-Picayune writer in this article. http://www.nola.com/politics/index.s...dget_mess.html

Glad it lasted as long as it did.

Sadly, now they will pass more taxes with TOPS and higher ed being the threats, but will hit those items anyway at some point in the future.

Do we want the state to fund TOPS? I thought we were for smaller government?

Nah, I'd rather they give the money away to the unproductive. That works well to spur the economy.
