The panic button has been pushed by liberal Senator Mark Udall as the most recent Quinnipiac poll has him (an incumbent) in a very bad position. Udall must know now that his only way to reelection is to tip toe his way along a razor-thin path, where even the slightest mistake will lead to his political demise. He’s making a hash of it. His interview with CBS Denver this week illustrates why.
Udall’s attempt to thread the needle he needs to win reelection quickly has become quite farcical, as he tries to say everything, but ends up really saying nothing.
When asked if he thinks communities like Boulder should be allowed to ban fracking altogether, Udall replied, “That’s not really a discussion that’s been had. What I think communities want is to have a say.” [the Peak emphasis]
Thanks for the non-response that makes absolutely no sense, Senator. Does this man have an inability to form a coherent sentence or thought right now? “That’s not really a discussion that’s been had,” yeah, because we’re having it right now, and as one of our political leaders we would really like to know where you stand on it and why. Wethinks they call it leadership. Oh look, here comes another punt:
Udall said there is also a way to protect public safety and gun rights.
Interesting, can we get you to expand on that and actually tell us how you would put this off, or should we all just ride around on our unicorns as we shoot rainbows out of our asses?
But Udall did save the best for last:
“You can cherry pick votes all you want… but I mean what I say and say what I mean.” [the Peak emphasis]
*Cough* (Hypocrisy) *Cough*
Cherry pick votes you say? That’s not something you and your campaign would use in your very first ad to attack Rep. Cory Gardner now is it?
This last line of meaning what you say is the most absurd as we just got through a whole interview of you saying meaningless things. No, we’ll stick with your own advice and judge you based on your actions of the last four years.
PeakNation™, here’s the video of the interview. It’s even worse watching it live as you can feel the awkwardness of him as he struggles with his waffle answers.
Here is what Udall did “TO US”. Why would Udall be concerned about healthcare cancellations stemming from Obamacare in Colorado?
– He wasn’t at all concerned that he didn’t read this enormously important bill.
– He wasn’t at all concerned that he didn’t know what was in the bill.
– He wasn’t even concerned that Americans opposed it (Obamacare) by 62.5%; Udall just arranged a telephone town hall meeting where he and his staff pre-screened the attendees to insure he would only hear what he wanted to hear. Problem solved!
The next step toward jamming Obamacare down our throats was parroting the talking points. Both Obama and Udall repeated these blatant lies frequently, as did many in their party.
– We can keep our healthcare plan if we like it!
– We can keep our doctor if we like him or her!
– The average family healthcare premium cost will drop by $2,500 per year!
Udall still supports Obamacare while we Coloradan’s and American’s still oppose it….and not a single Republican Party member voted for it. WHY?
– Maybe Udall’s allegiance is to Obama and his party instead of to us Coloradan’s and American’s.
– Maybe it’s because Udall & staff joined Harry Reid’s “bitch session” with Obama and Obama gave Udall and his staff a 75% taxpayer paid subsidy for their healthcare insurance premium because they couldn’t afford it! (Gee, Udall only makes $174,000 + per year!!)
– But hey, Udall and his staff are looking out for us now as we approach his reelection campaign.
He and his staff challenged Colorado’s Division of Insurance numbers that reported 250,000 of us Coloradan’s have received healthcare insurance cancellations due to Obamacare. After that challenge, and upon further review, that number was increased to 335,000 cancellations.
On 2/21/14, the Colorado DOI increased that by another 1,755 cancellations. Thanks Mark!
– Now (3/20/14), the Insurance Industry is warning of a 2 – 3 times rate increase next year.
So what do we do with Udall come 11/2014? My thoughts revolve around his lack of integrity and lack of honesty, the foundation and basis for trust in all human relationships. Unlike your life or your property, a person’s integrity can not be taken away from you; by anyone. In order to lose it, you must choose to give it away. Udall, like Obama, has consciously sacrificed his integrity and honesty while placing himself and his party’s agenda ahead of Coloradan’s and American’s wishes. Since Udall refused to support us, “FIRE THE LIAR in 2014” and elect a politician who puts us ahead of themselves & their party.
Furthermore, Obama has threatened We The People and our elected representatives with his pen and his phone and Udall has chosen to do NOTHING except continue his silent acceptance of Obama’s lawlessness. I guess Udall thinks that shields him from his responsibilities to us. Who needs or wants an inept liar as one of Colorado’s US Senators? (Unfortunately, we have two of them until 11/4/2014, Udall and Bennet!) Fire Udall on 11/4/2014 and we’ll deal with Bennet next.
We don’t have to deal with stonewalling politicians or race-baiting politicians or liars as our elected representatives. We deserve way better than that. Fire any and all of them that you feel you can no longer trust!`
Obamacare is his Achilles heel… Without jobs, we NEED and Energy Renaissance… His position on Guns in unacceptable and "unlimited access to abortion at any stage" is morbid. Nope, Udall is GONE!
