EXCLUSIVE–TEA PARTY TO MITCH MCCONNELL: 'YOU CANNOT WIN WITHOUT US'
Breitbart Big Government ^ | 22 Nov 2013, 4:27 PM PDT | by MATTHEW BOYLE

A major GOP donor who told Breitbart News Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell made disparaging remarks about the Tea Party movement and about Sens. Ted Cruz (R-TX) and Mike Lee (R-UT) continues to stand by his original story after claims that the reports were not accurate.

This individual reported that on the Oct. 30 fundraising call American Crossroads’ Karl Rove and Steven J. Law held with McConnell, “McConnell specifically talked about Mike Lee by name, specifically talked about Ted Cruz by name, and he specifically talked about the Tea Party by name,” the donor told Breitbart News in response to a story Rove’s and McConnell’s teams have purported shows otherwise.

That story, published by Charlie Spiering at The Washington Examiner earlier on Friday, confirms that McConnell “criticized conservative groups who supported the plan to defund Obamacare” and that he also criticized those conservatives who “are now actively working to defeat him in Kentucky.” The article adds that McConnell “repeatedly mentioned the Senate Conservatives Fund by name.”

The original article on this comes from The Washington Examiner.

The writer on that article, Charles Spiering, says he has a 27 minute audio file.

I had to Google “O’Keefe” by the way, the Conservative activist who punks Democrats on video all the time.

I recognized all his work, but I really had no idea what his name was.

Sickening.
We don’t see the RATS wasting time with infighting, no matter how radically Left and Communist.

Anyone from his (McConnell’s) home state???

Y’all are the ones to decide his future...

But I do not believe there are enough of you to show him to the door on his way out...

I would love to be proven wrong...But we’lll have to wait till next november to see if those folks have a political memory more than a gnat...

Every time I see that silly picture of McC., I wonder which is worse, the KY McC or the AZ McC.

Yes, one is more covert than the other. That’s about all the difference there is.
