Looking over the old CNN story, I found this gem:
One Republican, Rep. Ray LaHood, had even called for Ryan to withdraw from the race.
Shocker.
I know specifically what the allegation is, but I’ll not dignify it by repeating it here. As for LaThug, his role behind the scenes was considerable. The RINO enforcer for the Combine. He spent most of his time kneecapping Sen. Fitzgerald and can claim no small credit for running that excellent Reformist out of office. Of course, his reward was the Cabinet post from Emperor Zero. Without LaThug’s help, Zero would still be a pissant state legislature with nary an accomplishment to his name (whatever his name really is).
