House GOPer cites 'birther' claims, 'enemies list' at town hall
@ 2:37 pm by Jordan Fabian
The trend of controversial town halls contiuned on Friday when Rep.
John Sullivan (R-Okla.) questioned the authenticity of President
Barack Obama's birth certificate and referred to a White House
"enemies list" at a meeting in Tulsa.
"This is a scary time in Washington," he said. "It's a very
frightening time. I see Barack Obama is creating an enemies list of
people who oppose this miserable health care plan. I think that's
frightening. That's from a guy that can't even show a long-form birth
certificate. I think we all ought to be prepared to fight that."
One audience member at the Tulsa Republican Club didn't think that was
enough, berating Sullivan for not doing enough to uncover Obama's
citizenship, the Tulsa World reported.
The man was shouted down by other audience members after about one
minute.
Several Republicans have accused the White House of forming a health
reform "enemies list" after it called for supporters to turn in
"fishy" information about the health bill.
The White House has denied such charges, saying that press officials
only want to respond to anti-health reform rhetoric.
Engineers like myself do not tend to get elected because we focus on
actually solving the problems instead of popularity. I have to admit
that a really good politico is a special breed, someone who not only
can solve problems but manages to be popular and to compromise, true
rare qualities. It is difficult to decide if spending more time in
politics makes one more successful or not.
You often run into people who are natural leaders although they may
not be the smartest. Sometimes they seem to be the least likely from
a physical standpoint too. Whenever I see this I puzzle over what it
is that makes them that way and I never understand it.
So, how are you coming along with that latest brainstorm of yours...the
DVD Movie Rewinder?
HK, wanna buy the rights to it?
I dunno...is it working yet, or are you still trying to raise capital
for R&D? Are JustHate and Loogy still signed up to be spokespersons?
If you'll agree to buy a million of em we will produce em and
guarantee each of em works.
Now, seriously, one of the saddest things I see in politics is that
any admission of error by a politico is seen as the death of his
career whereas admission of error is necessary for success in
engineering
I don't think you want The Freak as spokesperson. Maybe spokesmodel.
The new Billy Mays! With a mullet.
Hey...
The DVD Rewinder is a device for really stupid Americans...who will
identify with morons like The Freak or The Loogy...
