Next up on our “committing political suicide for Nancy Pelosi and Barack Obama” list, Rep. John Boccieri (D-Ohio). Rather than standing up for the interests of his constituents and the vast majority of the American people, Boccieri will vote for government-run health care legislation.
Keep in mind that this $2 trillion+ legislation makes major cuts to Medicare, hikes taxes, establishes more bureaucracy, and provides federal funding for abortion. Voting for such a measure is tantamount to political suicide in Ohio’s 16th, a conservative district with a Cook PVI of R+4.
It makes one wonder what bribe Nancy Pelosi and Barack Obama offered in exchange for Boccieri’s walking off the plank.
Tanner (D-TN) reportedly will receive the NATO ambassador spot and Gordon (D-TN) the position as NASA administrator in exchange for their selling out. Kosmas (D-FL) is reportedly seeking a NASA appropriation in return for her “yes” vote on government-run health care.
Call Boccieri. Ask what bribe get got in exchange for selling out his constituents and the American people.
