Looks like more trouble for Menendez as Tom Kean Jr. prepares to take his seat away. I wonder if we'll see an indictment, even as he fires one of his oldest friends.
Sen. Robert Menendez (D-N.J.) severed ties with a longtime campaign associate who was taped seeking a political favor on his behalf, the latest of several ethics-related incidents to shadow Menendez as he seeks a full Senate term in November.According to yesterday's editions of the Newark Star-Ledger and the Philadelphia Inquirer, the associate, Donald Scarinci, was a Menendez childhood friend who became the senator's closest political adviser and a top fundraiser. In a transcript of the recording reviewed by the newspapers, Scarinci asked a client, a Hudson County psychiatrist who held lucrative local contracts, to hire another physician as a favor to Menendez. The psychiatrist, Oscar Sandoval, secretly taped the conversation, which took place in 1999, when Menendez was a House member.
Do you want to bet that the Democrats try to do again in New Jersey what they went to court to stop here in Texas in CD22?

Comments on Democrat Culture Of Corruption Rears Its Ugly Head
As usual you read shit and know nothing, Menendez was and is about the only non-corrupt politician of any flavor from North Jersey. Kean is a fucking empty suit, (much like yourself) running only because he has a fmaous daddy (much like the mental giant, squatting @ 1600 Pa Ave Wash DC)> Why the fuck don't you admit you know nothing and just STFU you chickenshit chickenhawk jackoff.

2) We are stuck with these ugly little things called facts, which show that Menendez was engaged in unethical business dealings and influence peddling. The evidence against Menendez is much more substantial than that against my former congressman, Tom DeLay -- and he got indicted!

|| Posted by Nunya Biddness, September 30, 2006 12:00 PM ||Gee -- guess you lost your balls since then. Too bad you aren't a man any more.
And as you well know, I tried to join but was rejected for medical reasons following a car accident in which i was seriously injured.
Besides, last time i checked, military service is not required for an American citizen to exercise their civil liberties. That you believe it is puts you in the company of other National SOCIALIST pukes.
And i notice that since you can never refute the FACTS, you prefer to engage in personal abuse and insults. I suppose that does make you marginally better than the muslims -- at least you havenen't threatened to cut my head off.
So despite your military service, I will question your intelligence, your honesty, your courage, and your patriotism.
|| Posted by Rhymes With Right, September 30, 2006 12:23 PM ||Maybe if you weren't such a dishonest fuck and would quote from the whole piece, but noooooo, you just cherry pick the parts that support your argument.(just like the squatter @ 1600 Pennsylvania Ave) As for you, of all fucking morons to question my intelligence that causes me great laughter. If you were man enough to ever meet me face to face you'd find out in about a nanosecond how much of a coward I am, especially after I break my foot off in your corpulent chickenshit chickehawk ass. You think your so much more a patriot than I, than sign your fat fucking ass up for a stint as an eleven bravo in the sandbox, until you earn a valid DD-214 you are the moral coward here you fuckwaffle.
As for military/government service, well it is my view it should be mandatory for all citizens period, if you disagree than that really proves who the chickenhawk is now doesn't???
|| Posted by Nunya Biddness, September 30, 2006 04:41 PM ||1) You're right -- I should have quoted morw. It makes Menendez and his buddy look more guilty.
2) You clearly have no facts or logic on your side, so all you do is swear and hurl insults.
3) I spent much of the 1980s trying to get into the Navy, but the injuries I suffered in 1982 in a car wreck kept me out every time I got to the physical. Not only did I want to serve, but I wanted to make a career of it -- and so I would likely still be in uniform today. I wanted to follow in my father's footsteps in that regard.
4) My inability to get into the military is why I teach -- it is my way of serving my country with the skills and abilities I have. I teach in a school that is 80% minority and 70% in poverty -- and drive past two high schools that are significantly more affluent and closer to my home to get to work each day. I've done that for a decade, and plan on doing it for a quarter century more (until I am 70). I doubt you would last a month -- actually, I doubt you would have the skills or character to make it past the initial screening interview at Human Resources.
5) As for the military/government service requirement you propose, I have mixed emotions. I believe that everyone should do such service -- it is a value I was raised with and part of why I teach. On the other hand, I have concerns about making such service mandatory -- after all, it implies that the government owns the people and their lives rather than the people creating the government. I therefore question whether such mandatory service is appropriate in a free society, outside of times of grave and pressing national crisis.
6) Squatter at 1600? Gee -- are Gore and Kerry sleeping in the basement? Bush lives there because he twice won election to the office of president under the procedures set forth by the US Constitution. You do believe in the Constitution, don't you?
7) Your insistance that no one speak in opposition to your beliefs without having served in the military is reminiscent of the oppressive systems instituted by such Socialists as Mao, Stalin, Castro, Hitler, and Kim Jong-Il. Makes you a typical Leftist -- everyone is free to say what they want as long as they agree with you.
|| Posted by Rhymes With Right, September 30, 2006 08:26 PM ||Typical of a teacher to brag on just how difficult their job is.(Not!!!!) Always remember: "Those that can do, those that can't teach", you are a prime example of that pithy quote, you'd last about a nanosecond in a Philly, or New York, school.
|| Posted by Nunya Biddness, October 1, 2006 09:13 AM ||And those who can't teach say that teachers don't have a difficult job.
And i think you'd find that Houston area schools are just as tough as any other urban schools.
By the way, I do want to note that while you claim your military service gives you the right to order other Americans to shut up, you yourself have admitted that you were a lousy soldier and that the military was as glad to get rid of you as you were to get out. Sounds like you were simply the same major fuck-up back then that you are now.
|| Posted by Rhymes With Right, October 1, 2006 06:07 PM ||Hey, troll, if you think that having a DD214 is the only requirement to challenge your intelligence, then I guess I have that right. That would be a real DD214, not the one you're photoshopping up right now.
Until you learn to present valid arguments, go away and leave the grownups alone.
