Spoofing The Candidates, YouTube Style

Alan Hevesi "I Stole. I'm sorry. Vote for me". I deserve it.

Oh yeah, "I'll owe you one"..........
Is he kidding? He reluctantly paid $170,000. back (still owes more) and He'll owe us one"?

THE APOLOGY SCRIPT Mr. Hevesi (speaking directly to the camera): “Honest concern for my wife, Carol, led me to make a stupid mistake. I’m truly sorry. Now, unfairly, some politicians want to stampede me out of office. But it’s your choice, not theirs. I’m asking you to weigh my mistake against my 35 years of public service. I’m human; I’m a good comptroller who did a dumb thing. If you give me the chance to keep serving you in the job I love, I’ll owe you everything, and those politicians nothing.”

Former federal prosecutor David Kelley issued a highly critical report on the removal of State Comptroller Alan Hevesi given to Governor George Pataki Friday. Although Kelley did not recommend his removal, the highly critical report does note that there is a "valid legal basis" for his removal if the governor decides to press forward.

"Considering the record as a whole, I believe there is a preponderance of evidence that the comptroller knowingly and intentionally violated New York's public officers law," Kelley said.

During their first NY gubernatorial debate earlier this week, Republican nominee John Faso said Eliot Spitzer, the Democratic nominee, was not treating Hevesi's case with the same fury he has brought to so many of his other prosecutions. At one point during the debate Spitzer said that, if Hevesi's transgression occurred on "his watch," he wouldn't tolerate it. That prompted Faso to remind Spitzer he is still the attorney general.
"Is there one set of standards for Eliot Spitzer and Alan Hevesi, and another set for everyone else?" Faso told reporters at the association meeting. "Can you imagine if this was a Wall Street executive what Eliot Spitzer would be saying?"

Well, you convinced me, I'm not writing in Hevesi and Spitzer on my Montclair ballot, instead I'll write in Bob Ney and Duke Cunningham because I know they want to bring integrity back to government.

Right but you will write Menedez. Doesn't matter that he is an UNELECTED US Senator from NJ and he is under a CRIMINAL Federal investigation.

Both party's have bad apples, no doubt.

The difference Republicans leave. They resign.

Democrats point their finger in your face and say it's not my fault. It's yours.

The media and you give democrats a free pass, with no accountability. Very shall we say TWO FACED.

Apparently you are one of those people who believes Gerald Ford should not have served as President because he was unelected and that Lewis Libby is guilty because he was indicted.

I actually don't know which candidate I'm voting for because I'm opposed to both parties, but I will not vote for the Republicans who continue to demagogue the Iraq war that even their progenitors speechwriter (Frum) and policyshaper (Perle)are now having misgivings about according to their mea non-culpas at National Review Online. To his plus column, Menendez at least opposed their insane vision.

"Apparently"

You have been drinking again. the constitution of the United

"I actually don't know which candidate I'm voting for"

"Apparently"

You have been drinking again. the Constitution of the United States gave Ford the Presidency

"I actually don't know which candidate I'm voting for"

Right..

"I will not vote for the Republicans who continue to demagogue the Iraq war"

uhm.

Neo-cons Richard Perle and Ken Adelman say they would not have supported the invasion if they knew how incompetent the administration would be in handling it.

Ken Adelman called the administration among the most incompetent administrations in the postwar era, individually each team member had serious flaws, together they were deadly dysfunctional.

And there's this from ROC's beloved source of news...

President Bush's image was dealt another blow this weekend as a poll conducted in Britain found that the American president is the second most dangerous man in the world.

British respondents who were asked who in their opinion is the man that most endangers world peace placed Bush as the second most dangerous man, only second to al-Qaeda leader Osama Bin Laden.

In Britain, 69 percent of respondents said US foreign policy has made the country less safe than it was before the September 11 attacks.

"I actually don't know which candidate I'm voting for"

I may not matter because of our new voting machines

I = it

I have an idea!
We can get rid of all political parties and create a Federal C C C and they can annoint and appoint.

I fail to see the necessity of having a two party political system. Is it wrong to elect the best qualified candidate for the job, rather than the "best" representative of a corrupt outdated archaic ideal?

Independents represent the outcast rebellion. They are not ideally qualified, either.

When and why did the career "politician" become such a dirty word?

There will always be a bad apple among the good doers of the world, but if you want to point the the finger at a whole group, why not target the lobbyests and special interest groups?

I believe the general majority of "volunteers" who subject themselves to public office positions are genuineally attempting to represent their constiuents and improve the quality of life for all of us. Identifying those who subscribe and follow-through on that ideal is tantamount to being worthy of of a vote from all of us, as opposed to those that excel in manipulating our physche for their own personal agendas.

Although I would not vote for him, Joe Lieberman has shown that you don't need to be wedded to the party machine to win.

If you watched last night's 60 Minutes (I know, it's not fairly unbalanced Fox) on conservative Republican Congressman Jeff Flake from Arizona who has tried to block wasteful earmark spending and been overridden by the Republican congress everytime, you might change your mind about whose best interest the party politicians has in mind.

In 1987, President Ronald Reagan vetoed a spending bill because it contained 121 earmarks. The number of earmarks approved by Congress grew to 1,439 in 1995. In 2005 Congress approved 13,998 earmarks, accounting for a good part of the $70 billion in pork spending.

Vote Democrat

Your property taxes really aren't that high.

The Republicans keep saying the economy is so good.

It's time for you to give back.

Besides we can spend your money BETTER than you can.

And "Giving" is the right thing to do.

Vote Republican

Paris Hilton needs to see the Estate Tax abolished. Like, totally.

Even thought we claim to be fiscal conservatives, we can't control govenment spending even when we have the Presidency, the House and the Senate.

And if you vote Democrat, Osama Bin Laden will personally come to Montclair to kill your entire family - on Wednesday. BOOOO!

Yeah, 9/11 and Two wars simultaneously.

Yeah, were spendin a little.

It's called WAR.

Try 14,000 earmarks in the last approproations budget. Not war. Pork.

"Despite President Bush’s alleged commitment to reducing the amount of pork in the federal budget, the total number of earmarks in the federal budget has increased from 4,000 in the year 2000 to 14,000 in 2005. Recently, Bush proudly signed into law a transportation bill laden with over 6,000 earmarks worth $24 billion. For comparison, President Reagan vetoed a transportation bill in 1972 because it contained 152 earmarks."

Reagan is rolling over in his grave thanks to the lack of fiscal discipline. If you control the budget process and you are a fiscal conservative, you should be able to contol spending.

1972 = 1982

Democrats Don't Understand War, I'm sure you feel safer at each and every night because of Republican Ted Stevens's million dollar earmarks for salmon alternative research and million dollar berry research. And I'm sure we'll whip Al Qaeda especially when you combine into the arsenal Thad Chochran's cotton gin research and Mitch McConnell's $3 million Animal Waste Research earmark. And the list goes on, but you'll never pay attention because Karl Rove is your pied piper.

What's your plan

"What's your plan"

1) Try to find a President who is capable of thinking through and solving complex problems, not one who is solely a mouthpiece for platitudes (pun intended) and slogans.

2) Put our own house in order first before worrying about Iraq. We have a history of Presidents telling lies to start wars (Gulf of Tonkin and WMD during my life), we need suitable punishments for these people. Instead MacNamara and Wolowitz get appointed to head the World Bank as punishment for the rest of the world.

Yeah thats a good one.

You hate this country. You probably forgot that 90% of the elected officials in this country and the leaders of most of other countries believed the President.

You people always try to change the record. It is you who lie and get a pass from the lib media. You don't understand the world.

Hope your not too disapointed. Your gonna lose again.

But your taxes are goin' up in Jersey, cause your boy bobby will win here.
