Rep Joe Sestak is the
highest ranking
former military office to ever serve in congress. Sestak is a Democrat
from PA, the state that gave us another disreputable former military
officer, John Murtha. A
comment by Jack the original sent
me scurrying about, collecting stuff that makes a couple of
points. They are:
- Any former military officer who indulges political
ambition by
running for office as a democrat, renounces integrity,
honesty, and honor. The most famous recent example is Sen. James Webb.
There have been no exceptions for almost 50 years.
- All elected Democrats are liars. No known
exceptions.
Listen to this 2 minute clip of Sestak on Hardball that I gleaned from
Limbo.
