Steny Hoyer Says "YOU'RE NEXT"
Edited on Fri Jun-20-08 02:21 PM by kpete


Color of Change and Blue America PAC teamed up to run the above ad in the Washington Post, placing the blame for the FISA travesty in the House squarely where it belongs -- on the shoulders of Steny Hoyer. It will appear next Thursday.

Our prisons are a mess. The drug laws are tremendously inequitable. And what does Steny Hoyer spend his time doing? Dispensing amnesty for high-dollar telecom donors, giving the Bush Administration more than they asked for, and covering his own ass for looking the other way in the face of abject criminal behavior for the past eight years.

This is just the beginning. We've now raised over $266,000 and we're working hard to put it to good use, and make sure a price is exacted for this abuse of the public trust. You can help by donating here.

1. Sadly, Hoyer does not care what you or I or anybody thinks...
The only thing he cares about is himself.

I say we send Hoyer a message he can't ignore: vote the pathetic collaborator out of office.

3. It's "You're"
Since it's wrong in the subject line, but right in the ad, I thought you might want to change it.

5. Hoyer is a fucking scumbag and always has been. Just told his office I'll work hard, cross the
river, to make sure he never gets re-elected. MAKE HE ROT IN HELL WHERE HE BELONGS.

11. The Barbara Lee quote turns my stomach
She's a day late and a dollar short like most of them. If she had had the guts to support Kucinich's bid for the nom in 2003/4 the way Lynn Woolsey did, maybe the Gang of Bush wouldn't be in power now. But she's a politician - a self-serving reacter not a leader.
