Hmmm maybe Joe should revisit his statements on tax increases from December of 2009.

My rant for the week.
I was on vacation last week with my family and one person, reading an old fashioned paper, asked me what I thought about Obama wanting to talk to students heading back to school. I responded that I think it is perfectly appropriate for the president of the United States to address our nations schools and that the students should watch the address.
Being on vacation I was disconnected with the “party line” and didn’t know that republicans should be against such things (unless Bush or Reagan do it).
Enter the problem with our great country.
Bush talks to schools and the Democrats are outraged!
Obama talks to schools and the Republicans are outraged!
And anyone who doesn’t go along with the “party line” is pandering and moderate.
Pat Toomey remarked about the speech,
“U.S. Senate candidate Pat Toomey called President Obama’s speech today to school children in Arlington, Virginia “an inspiring and moving speech for students across America.”
“Education is the cornerstone of our country’s future,” Mr. Toomey said, “and it is important that we relay that message to our young students. The President’s emphasis on responsibility and the personal stories about his own education are exactly the kind of inspiring messages our children need to hear from our country’s leaders.”
The reporters response (being parroted far and wide),
Toomey has veered hard to the middle since forcing Specter into the Democratic Party, first by endorsing Sonia Sotomayor’s Supreme Court nomination, now with this.
Finally we have a conservative candidate who has been begrudgingly accepted by the GOP handlers in PA. But whenever he speaks his mind and cuts through the systems hypocrisy with some good old fashioned common sense he is trounced for being a moderate and “pandering”.
Bully for you Pat! Keep on speaking your mind and using some common sense.
