Thad Cochran:41 yrs in office: $11 mil dollars: Barely walks, barely talks
Midsouthsentinel.com ^ | 9/30/14 | Mid-South Sentinel

Posted on 10/01/2014 12:04:23 AM PDT by ebshumidors

Finally, after much ado, ok not really much ado...it gets started and the 1st gentlemen that speaks mentions some of Thad's accomplishments so here goes...

•Some 2-lane road that was an accident waiting to happen he brought 5 millions dollars to the state to make it bigger and stuff and....

•I-269 International Trade Corridor that will connect to Collierville...and some other neat stuff I wasn't really paying attention to and we should help Thad Cochran to keep helping us ...you know, bring home the federal dollars which is why the GOP spent every penny they could muster to keep the gravy train going...now that you have read all about the spectacular things Thad has done for MS...time for Thad Cochran and remember, the GOP spent 11 million dollars to defeat his opponent...Chris McDaniel. Notice that when the 1st gentleman is speaking he is very easy to hear and understand but when it is Thad's turn, well, you can't hear him. I could barely him and I was about 8 feet away. I went here to ask the question of Thad Cochran..."Why did your campaign spend so much money and time trying to convince people that Chris McDaniel was a racist?" I couldn't ask the question because I didn't have it in me to embarrass an old man. Being in the same room with Thad, I could see that this man who could barely walk from his car to 25 feet into the headquarters was not capable of doing much, certainly not coordinating the lies the GOP concocted about McDaniels. This man, Thad, could barely speak loud enough for the room to hear him and it was a small room. He spoke about 4 minutes, 5 minutes tops and I think that was because that is all he is capable of. His voice started cracking towards the end. There was no passion and it seemed staged and that he had practiced this routine over and over until he got it done and if he wins, I don't think the GOP will wait a year for him to step down so they can appoint his replacement who will then have the advantage of incumbency because I don't think Thad can carry on this ruse that long...I give it 6 months tops.

The last minute he says this " In associating with the Republican Party Initiatives for economic independence and success for all Americans, peace and security as an American, those are our 2 principled planks in my view of our campaign in this election and that's what I intend to deliver as a United States Senator and I will do so as vigorously and effectively as I know how." Vigorously? Vigorously and Thad Cochran should never be used in the same sentence. If you don't have time to watch the video, at least watch 6:20 seconds until the end and tell me if you think he believes a word he's saying or that he has been coached to perform and the performance is soooo weak. I don't have it in me to criticize this elderly man, I really don't think his mind is all there but the GOP....all I can say is HAVE YOU NO SHAME?

The GOP spent so much money this primary season trying to defeat younger, smarter, more principled people who are the future of the GOP. Our country is in trouble. This is not just another game of politics to most of the people who are now refusing to send you guys their hard-earned money.

•We have a lawless executive office that is not abiding by the constitution and NO ONE to stop him.

•We have the greatest health care system in the world that is being destroyed, lives ruined, and businesses lost.

•We are going to WAR in the middle east whether they want to call it that or not •We have the enemy at the gates...the southern border and even in our place of business in the United States of America, beheadings are about to be included in statistical data that measures causes of death

WE ARE LOST and you...the GOP...just bet your last dollar on an old man that can barely walk, barely talk, and other geriatric candidates that you can control so the control you have had in the past will continue so I ask you...What profit a man if he gains the whole world but loses his own soul?

I went to this event because I wanted to see the 11 million dollar man for myself. When it ended, 2 gentlemen that were behind me, young, well-dressed, affluent(or appeared that way) looked at each other and for a second I thought they were thinking what I was thinking...OMG we gave up McDaniels for this? But then one of them said Woohoo and clapped and then there was some mild clapping that followed. I know deep down in my heart they were thinking something different...OMG we are in trouble.

I left the event feeling a little numb, a little optimistic ( I am an eternal optimist despite the gloom and doom that surrounds me, I am Christian and that's just how I roll) considering the fact that there were about 40 people and I am over counting to be on the safe side with about 15 people that work for the campaign which means about 25 people showed up. I can tell you one thing...there was no excitement, there was no passion, and there was no hope...just people going through the motions of what? I don't know.

I also know none of the African-American voters that pushed Thad over the finish line were there. Maybe they will show up on election day ...and if you believe that...well, nevermind, there's no hope for you anyways...

November may be a rerun of "Weekend at Bernies." Pics with captions and video at the link. This is written by a friend of mine who is a real grass roots activist.

” Thad Cochran:41 yrs in office: $11 mil dollars: Barely walks, barely talks”
..molests the barnyard livestock, hates conservatives, hopefully crashes on his face in November due to the dems primary crossover vote not supporting him in the general, and the conservatives being alienated enough to not pull his butt from the fire...

I'm puzzled. Why would you post this at this time of the morning? It's well written, presumably truthful, and may be of some value to the voters in Mississippi. However those voters are asleep now, and this will be very deep in the thread list the next time they log on.

Just curious...

I would agree....it gets to a very clear point.

Thad is a device being used by some lobbyists to accomplish something. At the right time...he will be let go, and the new guy appointed by the governor will step in.

They're hoping Thad COCKROACH wins, so they can appoint another RINO to take his place, that'll be UNACCOUNTABLE during a period of time, so that they can pass AMNESTY, and before the time that Mississippi can have another election to replace him.

It's time we Conservatives changed our strategy.
SO, THEY MUST BE REMOVED FIRST, or else we'll just keep getting Marxists/Fascists LIGHT.
We can start by getting more people to CLEAN OUR OWN PARTY. Throw them out!
And keep throwing them out!
And NEVER let an "ESTABLISHMENT REPUBLICAN" win.
Then, in the long run, they'll WAKE UP and ONLY run Conservatives!


The "ESTABLISHMENT REPUBLICANS" will NOT get the message unless THAD COCKROACH LOSES!

It is VITAL that Thad is removed, or the RINOs will do it again, and they may do it again, anyway.

REMEMBER
MISSISSIPPI



I'll take out (vote AGAINST) an "ESTABLISHMENT REPUBLICAN" every time I get an opportunity to, and that INCLUDES the GENERAL ELECTION.

"ESTABLISHMENT REPUBLICANS"SHALL NOT PASS !



It's SIMPLE.

Here the latest from September 19, 2014
The writer of that article really chopped that information up into a way that makes it hard to understand exactly what happened and whats going to happen. I am SOOOOOOO DISGUSTED with Mississippi's "GOOD 'OLE BOY NETWORK".

God curse them all !

Agree sir. I will make an admission here now. I separated in lieu of retirement in the military back in 1994. I fully support the military and the retirement system but for me, I did not want it.

The reason to post early in the wee hours of the morning ~ is to affect the morning news talk shows.
Those doing the 6:00 am news will research this site as well as other sites to see what people are debating, and what draws reaction from people.
Talk radio host will do the same.

That’s one of the great things about FR. Just bump it to the top in the morning, and voila! The morning crowd gets to see it.

Third shift zombie crawl, because somebody has to watch the living dead while the daywalkers rest.

This is the man that McConnell, the NRSC, and the GOP establishment wanted returned to The Senate. That’s all I need to know about the GOP old guard.

There was a higher turnover rate in the Soviet Politburo than we have in Congress now. Additionally, we have seats passed from generation to generation (e.g. Nunn running in Georgia).
