whopper of the week
Kuhl spokesman Bob Van Wicklin on Randy Kuhl’s trip to Iraq :
“He’s been trying to arrange this ever since he got into Congress.”
I know freshman House members don’t have a lot of clout, but it took him two years to arrange this? And we’re supposed to believe it’s a coincidence that this comes on the heels of his debate “challenge”, website unveiling, letter-writing campaign, etc.?
Does he really think the voters of the the 29th are that gullible? The editors at the Corning Leader may believe it, but they may be the only ones. Nice of the Leader to ignore the Massa camp’s reaction, which was (via the Star-Gazette):
Massa called it “a waste of money” for Kuhl to travel to Iraq.
“I hope he learns there is no strategy to bring our troops home. But I don’t think you need to travel to Baghdad to learn that. Every working family I’ve met knows that,” Massa said.
Well said.
What is his stated goal by going to Iraq? What is he trying to accomplish? Photo-Ops? He probably won’t be holding up that “Mission Accomplished” sign again…
