… But Could He Deliver?
Democrat congressional candidate Frank Kratovil launched his latest TV commercial last night. It’s chock full of promises. The only question is, could Blue Dog Frank deliver IF he were elected?
End our dependence on foreign oil? How Frank? You’re opposed to offshore drilling, along with your masters – Nancy Pelosi and Barack Obama. Do you think that wind and solar are the answers? They’re only part of a solution.
You’ll crack down on illegal immigration? The folks who run the Democrat caucus want illegals to be able to vote. They’ll never allow a stop to illegal immigration. It’s a key part of the Democrat power strategy, along with allowing felons to vote.
Cut taxes? On who Frank? Unless you qualify for welfare, your party thinks you’re one of the “rich” and should be taxed into the stone age.
Cut wasteful spending? Sure you would. Admittedly the GOP has a bad record on this issue, but not as bad as the Democrats. Your party rode into power in 2007 promising to do those same things. What have they done? Nada.
I don’t know how big the buy on this commercial is Frank, but keep it up. Buy some more. Nobody’s going to believe you. That will mean you’ll have even less to spend on something useful.

Andy Harris can’t deliver anything in the Maryland State Senate. His Republican peers didn’t even want him to continue as majority leader. Why should he get a promotion to the U.S. Congress where he will be nothing more than a right wing outlier who receives a good repork card from the Club?
Let’s be practical. The Maryland legislature is essentially a one party institution. Second, Andy was never elected Majority Leader. He ran to replace Lowell Stoltzfus but his a squishy majority of his colleagues chose to go with Brinkley. Now we see where that has gotten them.
I can only surmise from the second half of your comment that you want a congressman who will drive this country deeper into debt, as long as the First District “get’s it share”.
Be my guest. Just don’t whine when your taxes have doubled and the US dollar is worth 0.25 euros. Instead of paying $3.50 or $4.00 for gas, you’ll be paying $10.
I won’t apologize for having a different vision for America.
