This is what we have seen from the Democrats for years, and
apparently, for the foreseeable future as well. Tim Cullen pulled his power
play to be the go to guy for both sides. And just when that fragile balance in
the senate was so critical...god the Democrats are such losers. I’m ashamed.
Good riddance Cullen, as Democratic voters, we need to elect
real advocates of our party, and not Republican lightweights. Stamp your
feet and whine, you’ll fit right in the Grothman's and Vos'.
Here's WKOW's coverage, where Republican Sen. Scott Fitzgerald says:Democrats just gained control of the Senate 17-16 with Sen. John Lehman's victory over Van Wanggaard in a recall. It's unclear immediately what the implications are of Cullen's announcement.
Cullen, who was among the 14 Democratic senators who left the state during the historic protests at the Capitol in 2011 but had sought compromise with GOP governor Scott Walker on collective bargaining, said he was insulted by not being named chairman of any Senate committees after the Democrats regain control of that chamber.
"He's always been a 'Democrat' voice that is more about his district and delivering for his constituents than just marching to the tune of specifically the left wing of the 'Democrat' Party."The DEMOCRATIC Party is entirely "left wing." not just part of it, like this sick son-of-a-butch likes to throw in our face every chance he gets. Check it out:
Well then, that would mean you are NOT voting for that damned right of center Obama either right? Good! He lost me too! I want a REAL democrat!
ReplyDeleteRemember that when the 14 were in Illinois, the Walker people were scheming about how they could use Cullen to break the filibuster of the budget repair bill. Looks like they finally got to him.
ReplyDelete"Fab 14" or only "Fab 13" now?
That does not mean I'm NOT voting for Obama. If you can't tell the difference, then there's not much I can say. Cullen's on a much lower level, and can be challenged in his district, where real change starts.
ReplyDeleteObama is the only line of defense we have against the lunatic right. He's done some good things, and few things I'm not happy with. But I'm not running out wasting a vote on the green party, a bunch of whiners who "ran from the party" because they were too lazy to change the party from within.
