Ann Kuster's Union Leader Seal of Approval, Pt. II

by: Dean Barker

Wed Aug 11, 2010 at 09:52:27 AM EDT


The first seal of approval was going after Ann Kuster for going after the Bush tax cuts. The second is that they didn't put her rebuttal online, saving it for yesterday's dead tree only version.

Good thing Annie has her own website for her own words:

I support permanent middle class tax relief instead of extending Bush's tax cuts for the wealthiest Americans.

Apparently that position is enough to prompt an accusation of "economic illiteracy" from this newspaper.  

...Frankly, this isn't a partisan debate.  My opponent in the Democratic primary, Katrina Swett, supported the Bush tax cuts, the war in Iraq, and now the escalation in Afghanistan.  And while I am proud to have widespread support from the progressive wing of the Democratic Party, I am equally proud that so many Independents and open-minded Republicans are already standing with me in this campaign.  They recognize that the reckless spending of politicians like Congressman Bass made a mockery of the fiscal restraint for which the Republican Party  was supposed to stand.

...If that belief earns me some name-calling from the defenders of George Bush's policies, so be it.

But read the whole thing online.

to a hidden comment above, here's a cut and paste of it.

This is the most disgusting "article"  
I think I have read in a long, long time:

http://nhpolitics.com/DefaultD...

 

Kelly Ayotte has two toddlers, Katherine, age five (Above), and Jacob, age two. She has promised to leave her little babies behind all week, every week, for at least six years, if she is elected to the Senate.

   Now that is an alternative life style.

   Can Republicans talk about family values or marriage in any way with her on the ballot?

and

   

We'll be talking about it at this site, that's for sure.

   We are developing a whole line of tee shirts and sweat shirts with cartoons and photo humor about the subject, especially in anticipation of her becoming the Republican nominee. Stay tuned.

Goodbye. No one who would go after a candidate's family like that, and then try to make a profit off of it, belongs in this forum.
