In a odd twist of irony, Representative John Campbell (R. CA-48) is blogging missives at Townhall.com. Ironic and hypocritical, because he REFUSED to have even ONE TOWNHALL meeting on health care over this past summer when scores of REAL REPRESENTATIVES of both parties were actually holding these kinds of informational events. So what’s our little NON-Representative blogging about? “Obamanomics”. That’s his brand of cutsey talk he’s using to undermine the difficult task that REAL REPRESENTATIVES are taking to try fix the nation’s current economic crisis.
INSTEAD of providing REAL discussions about what can be done to get our country back on track, Campbell is taking silly to the next level by equating our current economic stall out ( job losses, credit problems, forclosures, extreme unemployment, small business expansion and astronomical national debt) to some personal diet program and counting calories he has on his mind. This is what he think passes as important conversation regarding attempts to stimulate the economy: “Using these methods, in Obama speak, today I created or saved 3,000 calories towards my diet. Clearly, I could have eaten 300 more calories if I tried, but I “saved” those calories due to my stimulus plan. At this rate, I could lose 100,000 calories while still gaining weight! Now, that is Obamanomics.” – – John Campbell, 12-2009
It’s about time this guy got exposed as the POSEUR that he is. He just doesn’t care. He’ll never get it. He’s just gotten used to saying “NO” and he has absolutely no ideas of his own. It’s time to get this grifter off the public dole. More of John Campbell’s latest confusion and blather at this LINK
Beth Krom is corrupt. Period.
People like this guy make me sick. I have M.S. This health insurance issue is no joke. Actually it’s a deadly joke. From Obama on down they ought to be ashamed of themselves. Nixon wanted to give us more comprehensive coverage. That’s one hell of a perspective if you really think about it.
Dan,
Nixon also signed the EPA and OSHA into law. Who would have thunk it?
John Campbell has earned quite a reputation for backing legislation that supports car dealers. That’s all he knows anything about. Consumer protections? Health-care reform for the poor and middle class? Campbell wouldn’t waste his time on that. Unless you’re a multimillionaire business owner, Campbell’s completely out of touch.
Welcome to a new thread, Dan. Nice to see your post and comments.
Bea – I have yet to see a site where Campbell’s “transgressions” are listed. There are quite a few of them, including trying to get an exception to predatory lending cleared for used car sales. If ANYONE has a link of actions by John Campbell, please provide it. At some point, someone’s going to have to do it. I sense significant opposition to Campbell by those who have been paying attention. However, I also noticed that Campbell has just released a multiple paged fold-out glossy flyer that has come in the mail. He hopes that next year’s election will be “business as ususal”.
Dan, you’ll have to look for the flyer if you live in Campbell’s district. It’s all about his version of “health care”. You’ll not be pleased, is my guess.
