Sununu* Forgets To Help

by: Kathy Sullivan 2

Thu May 22, 2008 at 15:45:33 PM EDT


( - promoted by Laura Clawson)

From NHDP Chariman Raymond Buckley's latest letter:

Time and time again, John Sununu has demonstrated that he will say one thing to assuage the people of New Hampshire and do another thing to please the party bosses in Washington.  

The following video illustrates the depths to which he has now sunk.  The video depicts his recent visit to a food bank in Manchester.  During the visit, he promises to do anything he can to assist the food bank and the people it serves.  

Just a few days later, when he could have delivered on that promise, he voted with his Republican colleagues to cut assistance to food banks.

Kathy Sullivan 2 :: Sununu* Forgets To Help
What is with Sununu*, anyway?  Does he think that we voters are so dumb that we can't connect what he says here in New Hampshire to what he does, and how he votes, in Washington?  And how can he play politics with the issue of poverty and the inability of people to pay for food for their families, and the continued shrinkage of take home pay v. the increasing cost of putting food on the table, by saying one thing and voting another?

The bill would have provided just $50,000,000 to food banks - less than one-fourth of what it cost to support the war in Iraq today.

--Sununu brought along four bags of groceries when he visited the New Hampshire Food Bank in Manchester on Monday to talk about the impact of rising food prices and the government policies that have contributed to the increases. The Democratic trackers who taped Sununu's visit brought no groceries, Republicans point out.

HA HA HA HA!!!

Do you get it?  Do you get it??

The slimy Democrat trackers didn't bring any food!  Ha! HA!

Yes, and what they brought instead of food was accountability.

What Sununu brought was a free media campaign event masked as a constituent visit, and an act of complete hypocrisy, or rather, showing his true colors, on the Senate floor.

Wonder if Sununu's fired now.
