Apparently we need stronger background checks for people that are representing 'the people'.

The civility that the left continues to display.

Unfortunately Rothman doesn't appear smart enough to record his phone calls.

Rothman is one of the guys who showed up for a hearing at the Minnesota State Capitol with a military assault rifle. I strongly suspect he's not quite telling the full story here.

I'd like to point out to all you republican apologists, Rep. Erhardt was originally elected as a republican.

Erhardt was first elected to the House as a Republican back in 1991, but after clashing with Republican Gov. Tim Pawlenty, he was denied the MNGOP endorsement in his district in 2008. He subsequently switched sides and was elected as the DFL-endorsed representative of a different House district in 2012.
I will never apologize for being an American.

It's not where you start, it's where you end that counts. His actions speak louder than labels. Was he lying then or is he lying now?

Your assuming Erhardt's politics changed, that he somehow morphed into a steaming pile of excrement after he changed party affiliation. I'm trying to show you, he was always a steaming pile of excrement. How do you think these guys can switch parties so easily?

This is just another example of the POS candidates the republican party continually foist upon us.

By all means, keep blindly following them, I'm sure they'll get the message and change their ways. :roll:

Blindly, NO, but follow them I will.

There are no guarantees that your Republican candidate is not a Democrat in Disguise. He/she may jump across the aisle and side with the Socialists from time to time (Bad RINO, bad RINO), he/she may even climb completely over the fence and join the DFL Socialist Party and switch from an (R) to a (D).

There IS a guarantee that your favorite DFL Socialist is what he/she says he/she is and that is something I will blindly fight against as hard and as often as I can.

Will the next batch of Republicans be "Perfect"? NO. Will the next batch of Democrats be worse, much worse? Yes, without a doubt, guaranteed.

I'll play the odds and avoid any Democrat or Democrat funded (L) candidate and vote for the most Conservative Candidate "That Can Win".

Lets see... if a phone recording existed, would it be smarter to release it before, or after Erhardt denies the allegations?

The account seems too accurate to have not been recorded.

Nice hair dryer :freezin:

Erhardt just needs a group hug.

I found the comments after the blog post most amuzing.
