PhreeZone 20 #5 February 3, 2006 He is a prick. He's from my old district before I moved for college years ago. I had the chance to meet him when he come to do a speach at my HS when he was up for his first reelection. He is a complete pompus ass that treated a bunch of high school civic class students like they were first graders when asked about his voting record even back then. Someone asked his stance on some minor topic, I think farm substidies since I was from a rural community and he proceded to try to explain what they were instead of answering the question. The vast majority of my class knew what they were and even could probally quote verse of law to him since they were the type that would have driven their tractors to school if they could have In talking to him in a small group I thought he just was slimey like a used car salesman. Dodging questions and non-commital answers the whole time. About the only reason he can keep his home district is the promise of high paying manufactoring jobs and with Honda in the area its almost a gimmie that will happen. As long as he keeps promising that I doubt he'll ever lose. Yesterday is history And tomorrow is a mystery Parachutemanuals.com Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
