Bunning too busy with parties to make it to Congress

[PVnRT]

This is from an email courtesy the Kentucky Democratic Party:

-----------------------------------------------------------

When Jim Bunning was asked by a reporter this week why he didn't bother to show up for the first several days of this year's new Congress, he responded that he has "another life besides the U.S. Senate."

The Junior Senator must have had more important things to do than address the budget crisis. He missed critical votes on the 2nd phase of the $700 billion financial sector bailout, and failed to attend three cabinet confirmation hearings.

However, he did manage to pull himself away from his other "life" to attend Inaugural Balls and make the rounds of the Washington party circuit this week.

The nation's economy is a mess and the new administration is working hard to address it, while Jim Bunning can't be bothered to put the country's business ahead of his. Yet he can find time for parties and photo ops.

Now is the time for all of us to begin the work towards sending a Democrat to the United States Senate in 2010; one who will show up for work.

Volunteer to work for your county party, help register new Democrats, talk to your neighbors, and contribute to the Kentucky Democratic Party. The work we do the next twelve months will help us to retire Jim Bunning next year.

Sincerely,

Jennifer A. Moore
Chair, Kentucky Democratic Party

1. NEVER HAD A REAL JOB BUNNING

Baseball & Bullshit      Rips off taxpayers money with his
autograph scam and has the gall to question people on taxes.
Replace this parasite. Kentucky: " Voted for Eisenhower
cause Lincoln won the war"
NEVER HAD A REAL JOB IN HIS LIFE
