That’s a load off my over-burdened mind.
But from a different perspective:
I’m sure I already pay for illegals to have court-appointed attorneys. Would this $10 million be a sort of illegal funding OFF-SET?

Is this another Al Gore & company scam?

I didn’t get to listen in to the whole call. So, I’m not sure how many people exactly were on the call. They didn’t take a census, at least not while I was on.
At any rate, I got to listen to someone from Florida, she really didn’t have a question it was more of a compliment for Hunter. His son talked about Iraq and Afghanistan and his upcoming election for Congress in San Diego. Hunter touched on his usual talking points.

30, I wish I could have gotten in on that call. How many people were on it?

My phone call to Blunt’s office was uneventful. I told Eric one of his staff that he needs to retract and correct his statement that this reminded me of the Dim’s twisting words and fact’s and he need’s to get his fact’s straight before he makes statement’s that get peoples feather’s ruffled, that it doesn’t make him or the Republican’s look very good especially when he sit’s in a leadership position. I read him MM’s correction (didn’t mention the blog I was reading from) but he must have been writing some of it down because he asked me to repeat some of it a couple of times. We will see if he actually takes the time to make a correction.

OT: Taylork, if you are out there. I got a call last night for Duncan Hunter’s camp. It was more like a teleconference. Duncan, a moderator named Jeff or John (I forget these things in my old age. ) and Duncan’s son who served in Iraq and Afghanistan (a former Marine) seeking to turned Congress incumbent were on the tc. Basically, it was an opportunity to ask Hunter questions, donate money or your services. I don’t know if you got the call but just wanted to let you know that they are looking for people to call voters in New Hampshire.

I think Blunt needs to resign his leadership post if he can't get stuff like this right. How about we give the Whip, or better yet minority leadership post to Tancredo, now that he's going to bail from the POTUS election.

Michelle,

Thank you for the correction. One of the main reasons I have a lot of faith in what is presented to us by this site is you do not hesitate to provide additional information on a subject vastly changing the perception of the original information. Too bad the MSM has trouble doing this, but that is why they are in a death spiral as they continue to lose credibility.

I would give Blunt a break on this…they can’t all be Durbin speed readers.

I am just grateful that the issue is cleared up and that 10M of our tax dollars out of 1/2 trillion will go towards defending our country…(snark off)

The prompt and prominent correction is a testament to your class and integrity, Michelle. Much of the MSM would do well to learn from your example.

I should clarify that was an email message I will be calling his office this morning I’ll let you know what was said.

Your zip code indicates that you are outside of the 7th district of Missouri. Regrettably, I am unable to reply to any email from constituents outside of the 7th district of Missouri.

If you feel that you have received this message in error, you might try again or contact the office directly.

To determine the correct Member of Congress serving your area, please visit the House of Representatives Web site.

Non-district residents are still encouraged to sign-up for email updates from Congressman Hastings.

Thank you for visiting the 7th District Web site. Please feel free to continue to browse.

This is the reply or none reply I get from Blunt’s office requesting a correction. I do live in the state of Missouri he does reprsent my interest’s I think I deserve a little more from this numbskull.
