You attack those who point it out to you with demeaning name calling. Simply put Tom, you can't have it both ways. First you fell out of bed when you fell for the neo-con philosophy. You are also "soft" on the immigration issue. You praise George Bush and yet Bush's failed policies that have nothing to do with real conservatism are destroying the Republican majorities before our eyes and yet you cling in your ignorant arrogance to the Bush Titanic deck chairs. In fact, Bush has done so many things that are downright Democratic like "no child left behind" and a massive expansion of medicare, and endorsed massive spending, pushed an amnestyesque immigration bill, etc. etc. You attack the old line conservatives as Paleos and even call them (liberal) when it is YOU who has back slid into a nouveau failed political view that has its foundations in Trotskyism! Is it because you want to be popular with the young neo-con newbies or that it gives you an ego trip or a continued set of connections.....?<br><br>I once remember a very conservative Tom Roeser who proudly played Kate Smith's God Bless America..... Where did that Tom Roeser go? Did he become a back sliding compromising purist or to put it bluntly, a mushy moderate with a slight conservative bent in the area of abortion..... Or maybe its not PC in his eyes today to be a traditional conservative. Maybe for him it is "go along to get along time". Now wonder he fumes at people like me who point it out to him again and again....

He produced no legislation after a decade in the General Assembly and the US House. Apart from picking up his paycheck, he did nothing at all. That he has proven to be inept and lazy comes as no surprise to me.

One of his brothers ran afoul of the mob while playing at Republican politics and was murdered with a pick axe near the corner of Randolph and Wells during the Forties. Granata served in the US Congress briefly until a successful recount action stripped him of his victory and a Democrat was seated in his place.Dan Kelleynoreply@blogger.com
