BONER handed out checks from Tobacco Lobby on House Floor!

[WI_DEM]

Unfricken believable! or is it? This guy is not change for the better and we can't let the "liberal" press get away with painting him as such.

According to KOS Boner handed out checks from tobacco lobbies on the House floor prior to votes on legislation affecting the tobacco industry.

1. GOOD! I want to see a 3rd Maj. leader go down!!!!!

Wonder how far down the ladder they'll have to go before they find a clean candidate? Hmmm, or are there any?????

2. IIRC, there's video of it from C-SPAN

This should be nice to shove in his face. Repeatedly.

3. this should be repeated over and over and over and over.....

4. if Dems are smart they will make an ad

showing Delay and his troubles and then cut to "And who do they choose to replace Delay--Boner who handed out checks from the Tobacco industry on the House Floor just before an important vote near and dear to the hearts of the tobacco industry." (and show the film of him doing it!)

11. Totally evil. I just watched my dad die of lung cancer.

He was a heavy smoker for 25 years. He quit back in the 70s but the disease still got him. (I think 30% of lung cancer happens in former smokers.)

It's unforgivable what these bastards are doing.

12. Isn't tobacco a legal product and don't they have a right to lobby

on behalf of the thousands who earn a living in their industry?

[WI_DEM]

14. you obviously missed the point--he handed out checks from the

tobacco lobby on the House Floor, right before a crucial vote. Or do you defend that as well?

13. "handed out checks"...

why do you think he won!?
