"John McClane: You know what you get for being a hero? Nothin'. You get shot at. You get a little pat on the back, blah, blah, blah, attaboy. You get divorced. Your wife can't remember your last name. Your kids don't want to talk to you. You get to eat a lot of meals by yourself. Trust me, kid, nobody wants to be that guy.
Matt Farrell: Then why you doing this?
John McClane: Because there's no body else to do it right now, that's why. Believe me, if there were somebody else to do it, I'd let them do it, but there's not. So we're doing it.
Matt Farrell: Ah. That's what makes you that guy. "

Words To Live By
"The era of small government is over ... government has to be more proactive, more aggressive." ( Tim Pawlenty 2006)

"You're just petty politicians, who'd sooner sign onto the wisdom of a tyrant in another country, than the demands of ticked off voters in your own." (Neil Cavuto June 2008)

“I didn’t question her patriotism. I questioned her judgment.” Mr. Cheney went on: “The point I made and I’ll make it again is that Al Qaeda functions on the basis that they think they can break our will. That’s their fundamental underlying strategy, that if they can kill enough Americans or cause enough havoc, create enough chaos in Iraq, then we’ll quit and go home. And my statement was that if we adopt the Pelosi policy, that then we will validate the strategy of Al Qaeda. I said it, and I meant it.” (Vice President Cheney NYT Feb. 2007)

"A political party cannot be all things to all people. It must represent certain fundamental beliefs which must not be compromised to political expediency, or simply to swell its numbers. (Ronald Reagan March 1, 1975)

"Oh, no! First of all, if I took one vote away from a serious candidate, it would be a sin." (Al Franken Time Magazine, 9/1/03)

$36.50 for a 3 Musketeers – Will The Real Jim Graves Step Forward

Jim Graves, DFL & Independence Party candidate for the 6th Congressional District has had to scrub his resume of some quite flattering things because they weren’t actually true. Of course this was only after his campaign manager attacked anyone who tried to point out the misleading items in his resume.

RF Flashback Jim Graves May Be The Perfect Washington Candidate

One of the things that was questioned about his resume was that he served on the board of the United Way.

I’m reminded of a Seinfeld character. Elaine’s boss J Peterman bought Kramer’s life story to spice up his book.

 

St. Paul –With no voting record to run on, Jim Graves’ business record deserves serious scrutiny. Last week, in response to a press release by the Republican Party of Minnesota regarding Jim Graves’ business practices and professional biography,Graves’ son, Adam said these ‘wild accusations’ were ‘hardly worthy of a response,’ but this week, Graves is updating his biography.

Republican Party of Minnesota Chairman Pat Shortridge issued the following statement demanding answers from the Graves’ campaign regarding these serious concerns:

“Last week, these were ‘wild accusations,’ but this week, Jim Graves is updating his biography. We have to wonder what historical revisions are still to come.

“In just days, Graves was forced to remove a claim from his biography that he was a United Way Central Minnesota board member.

“When there are a litany of questions about a candidate for public office and how they’ve run their business, voters deserve answers. If Jim Graves has run his business differently than public records show, including a failure to honor agreements with subcontractors and hotels, forcing the unionization of his employees, and being delinquent on many of his businesses, then please, set the record straight.

“These are not ‘wild accusations,’ these are serious concerns. If Jim Graves will run his businesses like this, what will he do if elected to Congress? We have enough people in DC already who are willing to cut corners and who don’t think the rules apply to them.”
