CongressmanJohnTierney.Com Endorses Bill Hudak, not Congressman John Tierney

By NOTCongressmanJohnTierney | Published: October 30, 2010

Joining the ranks of notables such as Mitt Romney, Steve Forbes, and Scott Brown… CongressmanJohnTierney.com endorses Bill Hudak for Congress in the 6th Congressional District of Massachusetts (please read “About Congressman John Tierney Website” before proceeding further).  But, rather than offer up a glowing rehash of all the countless positive articles giving countless reasons to vote for Bill Hudak (as well as countless reasons to vote against Congressman John Tierney), CongressmanJohnTierney.com will simply provide a choice offering of such articles so that genuinely interested parties can sample a variety of similar endorsements.

  • Tierney lacks commitment to Constitution by U.S. Marine, Patrick Fahey in Wicked Local Ipswich;
  • Editorial: Golnik, Hudak for Congress by Eagle-Tribune;
    • “Our nation is at a crossroads. The federal government is piling up debt at an unprecedented rate.Unless we change course now, annual deficits, the amount by which federal spending exceeds revenue, will top $1 trillion each year for much of the next decade … Congress and the Obama administration are leading the nation down this perilous road, enacting massive new government programs the public neither wants nor can afford.”
  • LETTER: Tap water and Tuesday by Tim Twombly, in Marblehead Reporter;
    • “participation in politics is critical toward this end. We need new minds involved, replacing career politicians who are entrenched in partisan games with the best talent from the private sector and beyond. Lastly, we need to dispense with all this anger. Luckily for many, the Founding Fathers gave us a suitable release valve. See you all at the polls.”
  • Fresh Faces for Congress by Boston Herald staff;
    • “In the 6th Congressional District John Tierney, a 14-year incumbent, should by all accounts be gone. To fail to explain what he knew about his wife’s involvement in the illegal business affairs of her fugitive brother is simply arrogant – and arrogance is what we have to expect from Tierney.”
  • Tierney will lead country into socialism by Colleen Fallon, in Newburyport News;
    • “As a national political organization, the Democratic Socialists of America endorsed John Tierney this month as a congressional candidate. The goals, agendas, ideologies and political platform of the DSA are described with detail in this organization’s Political Perspective. Stated very clearly is their strong rejection of an economic order sustained by private profit.”
  • Endorsement: Hudak deserves chance to earn confidence Tierney has now lost by Gloucester Times staff (Ray Lamont?);
    • “Hudak clearly gets it when it comes to dealing with the fishing industry. He recognizes that, at its core, the fishing regulatory issue is a jobs issue. And — as he puts it — fishermen aren’t seeking a handout, they only want to fish, and work.  He also gets it when it comes to meeting with and listening to voters across the district. He wants the nation’s immigration laws enforced and the borders secured. To do anything less, he says, is an insult to law-abiding immigrants. He believes massive new regulatory schemes such as the health bill and the “cap-and-trade” energy legislation still under consideration are creating uncertainty among business owners that is killing job growth. He’s right.  Tierney, of course, would have us all believe otherwise. And his latest campaign ads and mailings claim Hudak would “eliminate the mortgage deduction.” That would scare voters, if it were true — but it’s not.”
  • Tierney is an unabashed leftist by Scott Fallavollita, in Newburyport News;
    • “There’s a reason the Eagle Tribune and others endorse Bill Hudak. After 14 years, Tierney is hardwired into consistently voting for Big Labor, Big Government, Big Special Interests and Really Big Debt. It’s hard to imagine giving him two more years to further erode the life, liberty and property of small businesses and taxpayers.  The time has come to reject runaway government growth and to stop the steady stream of noxious legislation emanating from Capitol Hill. Please join me in voting for Bill Hudak.”

(not finished, please check back, but you can still share now, thanks!)

Congressman John Tierney: Your Vitriolic Ads Make a Poor Smokescreen

By NOTCongressmanJohnTierney | Published: October 19, 2010

congressman john tierney's pitchfork mob comes callingMassGOP Files Complaint With Office Of Congressional Ethics

BOSTON - The Massachusetts Republican Party filed a complaint today with the Office of Congressional Ethics requesting an investigation into whether Congressman John Tierney may have violated the Ethics In Government Act.

CLICK HERE to read the complaint.

Massachusetts Republican Party Chairman Jennifer Nassour said:

“We expect Congressman Tierney to come clean on his involvement in this matter. His constituents deserve the truth about what he knew about his wife’s $7 million in illegal gambling revenue from an offshore operation. How is it possible this happened without Congressmen Tierney noticing or asking any questions? It wasn’t $700 or $7,000 that passed into his home – it was $7 million.”

Meanwhile, Congressman John Tierney has put out a vicious attack ad against challenger, Bill  Hudak, that uses those highly mature and professional terms, “poisonous” and “kook”; well, it seems the only kook that is poisonous to Massachusetts has been Congressman John F. Tierney himself and it doesn’t take very much for a rational, concerned, citizen to find out why.

Here’s a few examples to get you started:

Eagle Tribune
Editorial: Tierney suffering from ‘willful blindness’ of his own

Wicked Local, Swampscott
V0ters Deserve Better Than Tierney

Wicked Local, Marblehead
LETTER: Tierney’s voting record ‘shocking’

Gloucester Times
Tierney Doesn’t Deserve a Return to D.C.
Letter: Spouse’s tax crimes are last straws for Tierney

Wicked Local, Ipswich
John Tierney Must Go!
(well-resourced expose)

Jewish Journal
Does Tierney Really Represent Us?
Tierney Avoids Contact with Voters

Newburyport Daily News
Tierney and the ’21st century’ marriage

But maybe the following quote might sum up the frustration with the unfulfilled promises and corruption of Washington even better, since it comes from someone far outside the 6th Congressional District of Massachusetts:

“All we heard was that when the Democrats took control of the House and senate, that online gambling prohibition would end in the US,” said Warren Malloy. “But here we are a couple of years later, and not only are the laws still the same, but one of these Democrats (Congressman John Tierney) has a wife who was benefiting from the illegal online gambling activity.” ~ Politicians More Corrupt Than Illegal Gambling Industry

Did Congressman John Tierney benefit from Patrice Tierney's tax fraud money laundering?

Congressman Tierney: Don’t Look At Me, I Only Sleep With Her

By NOTCongressmanJohnTierney | Published: October 10, 2010

Is Congressman John Tierney throwing his wife Patrice under the bus?

If anyone is wondering what to get Congressman John Tierney this coming Christmas, you can start by getting him a wheelbarrow.  Not only because he’ll probably end up back in the private sector working on a bolshevik garden at the White House (shh, back room deal), but because Congressman John Tierney really has some big ones.  And I mean HUGE.

After the FOX25 debate with challenger Bill Hudak, just a few days ago, the news station’s comment section on both their website, and Facebook, was full of constituents seething at the way Congressman John Tierney had insulted the moderator, Maria Stephanos, while throwing his wife Patrice Tierney under the bus.

“Let me, first of all, say that this is the 21st century and what Patrice does with her family and a family business is not something as her husband that I look over and monitor day to day,” said Congressman Tierney

How about week to week, Congressman Tierney?  How about month to month?  How about even year to year?  Even a raging drunk could have sniffed out this kind of trouble if they at least monitored their BELOVED’S interactions year to year.  There’s plenty of people with crooked family members, or family members with troubled pasts yet they don’t keep their books, especially when it could present a clear “conflict of interest” with their spouse’s job as Congressman.  The brother didn’t have enough money to hire a reputable accounting firm???  That would have been the end of it right there but between

  1. a lawyer/Congressman
  2. a convicted illegal gambling ring boss allegedly turned internet gambling software salesman; and
  3. a sharp, entrepreneurial, wife of a Congressman, keeping her brother’s books…
what did congressman john tierney know about Patrice's willful blindness?

I was willfully blind. She was deceived. I am an internet gambling software salesman.

…not a single one… (not even FRIENDS AND FAMILY of the above?)… not a single person in, or around them had the wisdom, or foresight, to figure anything strange was happening?  Not a one of them had the ability to sense a potentially serious problem????  Not a one?!?!?!!!?!?!

was no one around congressman john tierney and his wife patrice smart enough to smell a problem?

Sorry, Congressman... wrong answer...

This is one of those sick things that is so perverse and disturbing that there’s no grey area — either people are shocked and immediately disgusted, or they go into denial and start defending it.  In this case, the vast majority on the net section were shocked and disgusted.  But, for inquiry’s sake, here is one, of many ways, of interpreting Congressman’ John Tierney’s denials:

I have one of those 21st century marriages so I felt I didn’t have to protect my wife despite her very peculiar circumstances of which I was aware.  I knew her brother was convicted of an illegal gambling operation in MA.  I knew he moved offshore, in his words, to sell internet gambling software.  And, it never bothered me, even once, that my having to occasionally vote on internet gambling bills could be misconstrued as a “conflict of interest” while she was keeping his books and disbursing payments to various family members which then might, or might not, find their way into my campaign coffers.  None of this ever concerned me enough to sit down and have a serious discussion with my wife about what was going on in her life in that area. (note: despite this being in the first person voice, Congressman Tierney is not on record as having said this.  It is just one person’s interpretation of the meaning behind the Congressman’s statements)

Congressman Tierney is a guy who has to conduct inquiries into all kinds of complex situations in affairs, foreign and domestic, but he can’t even ask a few very important questions, or express a few very major concerns, of the person with whom he sleeps next to every night?  There should’ve been more red flags than flew over the stadium at the Beijing Olympics.

Did Congressman John Tierney see the red flags, or not?

Hello? Congressman Tierney? Congressman Tierney... hello??

Yet Congressman Tierney has the audacity to stand before the American people and continue to spin his wife’s confession into a tale of brotherly deception?  Either Patrice was deceived, or she was “willfully blind”, Congressman, it can’t be both.  “Willfully blind” means she knew something was wrong and just chose not to educate herself on the matter.  And people are “willfully blind” only when there’s a payoff.  So, what was Patrice’s payoff?

Was it to keep the “Golden Goose” out of jail so he could produce more golden eggs?  Was it to keep a Congressman in power who could try to create conditions that help the Golden Goose produce more… faster…?  Was it both?

Who even cares anymore….?

Remember the quote, “I might not know everything about you… but I know everything I NEED to know about you.”  And that is not limited to, but includes:

  1. You voted with the Pelosi liberal establishment to FORCE health care “reform” down our throats;
  2. You made sure that you, and Congress, were exempted from that health care “reform” bill;
  3. You voted with the Pelosi Cap & Trade;
  4. You voted “present” on a 407-0 bipartisan effort to encourage responsible fatherhood (HRes 318);
  5. You voted against a ban on internet gambling while your wife worked her brothers books and it could EASILY be construed as an ethics violation, or a serious “conflict of interest”;
  6. You were undeniably rude and obnoxious during the Fox25 debate the other evening; and, even worse than the previous 5 combined….
  7. It seeming more and more like you threw your wife under the bus, Congressman.
did congressman john tierney throw his wife patrice under the bus, too?

Oh, now I see where he gets it from...

Or would you like us to believe “she crawled under it?”  After all, in that “21st century” marriage of yours, Congressman John Tierney, you only sleep with her….. right?

(disclaimer: for clarity’s sake, the title of this article is not a quote, and the congressman has never said any such thing.  It is artistic license in the form of political satire regarding one, of many, possible interpretations from his recent statements regarding his knowledge of his wife’s activities.)

Congressman John Tierney, Step the Heck Down!!

By NOTCongressmanJohnTierney | Published: October 9, 2010

Congressman John Tierney embarasses himself in a debate with Bill Hudak on Fox25 BostonAfter watching Congressman John Tierney duck, dodge, insult, interrupt, and filibuster both Fox25 host, Maria Stephanos, and opponent, Bill Hudak, the majority of viewers showing up to comment, post-debate, on the Fox25 site, expressed grave disappointment and disgust with the man they currently call their Congressman:

What a horrible, one-sided moderating job. “He (Tierney) answered all of the questions?” Really? He gave the audience yet another lesson in how an experienced politician shifts blame and embarassment while taking advantage of a local TV anchor. ~ Ajc99z

For the first 2-3 minutes, Hudak showed restraint and composure while, awkwardly enough, Congressman Tierney and Maria seemed to be engaging in their own debate.  At one point, Congressman Tierney, trying to get away from the “What did you know, and when did you know it?” type question, insulted Maria, and married couples everywhere, by suggesting that his marriage was a “21st century” marriage, where spouses didn’t constantly have their noses in each others business.  But he couldn’t escape the fact that most peoples’ spouses don’t have a family with illegal gambling ring convictions to their credit, that most peoples’ spouses don’t have family members who move to ANTIGUA to try to get under U.S. gambling laws, that most peoples’ spouses who have family members with aforementioned problems should be discouraged from doing their felonious family member’s bookkeeping, and that most peoples’ spouses with aforementioned family conditions aren’t married to sitting Congressman who occasionally cast votes on bills that attempt to ban internet gambling.

Apparently, Congressman Tierney’s “21st century marriage” philosophy didn’t pan out quite like he expected – with it having only slightly more appeal than the relationship between Julius Ceasar and Brutus.  Perhaps, Congressman Tierney should take a few steps back and check out that “20th Century” marriage style that he is so quick to dismiss.  Or, maybe having married into a gambling ring family, he enjoyed the risk?

is congressman john tierney is in denial?

Anyways, Congressman John Tierney is now vascillating between the “anger” and “bargaining” stages of a doomed man.  While his wife tries to spare them both from further embarrassment by admitting her guilt, Congressman Tierney, ever the career politician, STILL just can’t let the truth go unspun:

“Why would she think it would be embarrassing if he was down there doing a legal thing?” the congressman said during an often contentious meeting with the newspaper’s editorial board. “From what I understand, listening to the U.S. attorney, the lion’s share of that money was for taxes. Why would that be a concern?” (source)

Let your wife accept responsibility Congressman.  It might not be good for your career as a Washington insider, but it’ll be good for her soul.  Or does that not matter?  “YAH, BUT…”

“That’s all her case. You would have to ask her, but we never discussed it,” Tierney said. “When my mother died and I took care of her estate, Patrice didn’t ask me, ‘Well how much (money) did you get? And where is it going?’”

someone in antigua searching for info on patrice tierneyYour mother didn’t move to ANTIGUA after being convicted of running an illegal gambling ring, Congressman.  “YAH, BUT…”

“It’s not like it’s her money,” Tierney said. “It’s his money and it’s paying his bills. I don’t know what would have possibly triggered her to be concerned.”

She admitted to “willful blindness”, most likely to keep the case from going to trial, from revealing much more, and from resulting in nastier sounding charges; So, Patrice was AT LEAST “willfully blind”, and if you weren’t testing out one of those new-fangled, “21st century” marriages, maybe you’d know what it was that triggered her to become so, and prevented it.

“What I wish is that my brother-in-law had said to his sister, ‘Hey, ‘I’m lying, you don’t want to be doing this. That’s what I wish.”

That’s your denial, Congressman Tierney.  Patrice knew what he was.  He knew what he was.  The FBI knew what he was.  Antigua knew what he was and sports betting junkies all around the U.S. knew what he was.  And what WE have the right to know, and WILL find out, is what you knew, and when you knew it.

Congressman John Tierney, you need to get the hell out now.  On top of failing us as a Congressman in so many ways, you’ve failed your wife.  As her husband, you have a duty to protect her, and you KNEW… you KNEW who, and what, her brother was… you KNEW she was keeping his books… and you should’ve had a line of communication open and an eye on her affairs… you should have had the kind of open and frank discussion that would’ve led to you discovering that she was uncomfortable, or possibly hiding something.

congressman john tierney should step down

Bust the Deal, Face the Wheel, Congressman Tierney.

And, yes, your 21st century wife failed you, too, Congressman John Tierney, however, she has, at least, admitted her guilt, despite your ongoing attempts to mitigate it… and that, my dear Congressman, still makes her infinitely more electable than you.

HR 4411: Congressman John Tierney’s Smoking Gun

By NOTCongressmanJohnTierney | Published: October 6, 2010

did congressman john tierney vote no on hr 4411 because patrice tierneys brother was involved with illegal internet gambling?By now, the internet is abuzz with news of Patrice Tierney, Congressman John Tierney’s wife, admitting to tax fraud charges.  Contradicting himself in the vein of true political double-speak, Congressman Tierney said that his wife “really believed her brother owned a software company” and that she admitted to being “willfully blind.”  If she really believed her brother owned a software company that would be “naively blind”, not “willfully.”  She knew something was up and did nothing about it.

But, what did Congressman John Tierney know?
HOUSE BILL HR4411

Vote to pass a bill that prohibits Internet gambling through the use of any communication of information that assists in planning bets, credit cards, checks, drafts, and funds transfers and also establishes a five year prison sentence for those who knowingly violate this law.

One of the many articles now proliferating the web states,

Prosecutors allege that Eremian 57, moved an illegal gambling business from Lynnfield to Antigua in 1996 and deposited profits from his business, Sports Offshore, an Internet gambling site, into an account at Bank of America in Massachusetts.

Patrice Tierney is accused of managing some of Eremian’s “financial and family obligations’’ through the account and mischaracterizing deposits as commissions in documents submitted to her brother’s tax preparer for the years 2004 through 2008.

Congressman Tierney voted “No”on HR4411, in 2006.

Congressman John Tierney might claim that he didn’t want to criminalize something that was voluntary but “texting while driving” is voluntary yet it’s been criminalized because it causes people to get hurt.  And the same is true for internet gambling, it causes people to get hurt.  Around the time of John Tierney’s voting against his party and HR 4411, access to credit was very easy — easy access to credit, plus easy access to internet gambling equals major disaster.  So why did Congressman Tierney, who votes with his party 98% of the time, decide to vote against his party this time — in a way that would leave gambling addicts, and addicts-to-be, completely vulnerable to the very BIG BUSINESS operations to which he, and cronies, have historically referred to as greedy?

Could it be that politician’s greed trumps corporate greed?  After all, didn’t Patrice Tierney’s brother allegedly “consult” for offshore internet casinos?  Hello, media???  I’m tapping my microphone…is this thing on??

The Bell Tolls for Thee Congressman John Tierney

By NOTCongressmanJohnTierney | Published: October 5, 2010

congressman john tierney's wife, patrice tierney, set to plead guilty to tax chargesFor those who don’t yet know, Congressman John Tierney’s wife, Patrice Tierney, is set to plead guilty to tax charges:

Federal prosecutors say 59-year-old Patrice Tierney of Salem is set to plead guilty in the U.S. District Court in Boston on Wednesday to four counts of aiding and abetting the filing of false tax returns.

Tierney’s fugitive brother, Robert Eremian, and another sibling face charges including racketeering, money laundering and operating an illegal gambling business.  ~ US Rep. John Tierney’s wife face felony charges, Boston Herald

Let’s be immediately clear, this is a very unfortunate situation and it would be inhumane to gloat over the downfall of another for not a one of us is perfect and we are all merely human.  However, this must not be dismissed, either.  Either Congressman John Tierney knew about this, or he didn’t, and the people deserve to know.  If he did, that speaks for itself, but if he did not, one has to wonder how he could have been so blind to the massive amounts of money coming in and being spread around.

To her credit, Patrice Tierney admits to being “willfully blind”… not ignorantly, not unintentionally… but willfully.  Was Congressman Tierney willfully blind, as well?  Sen. Kerry was willfully blind about trying to avoid paying $500k in taxes on his yacht by parking it in Rhode Island.  Is this “willful blindess” systemic in, and around, these people?

Without prejudice, or malice, we, the people, deserve to know what Congressman John Tierney knew, and when he knew it.  This is no small matter… not one bit.

October Surprise: Is Congressman John Tierney Buying Votes?

By NOTCongressmanJohnTierney | Published: October 5, 2010

is congressman john tierney buying votes through taxpayer funded grants? Is Congressman John Tierney “buying votes” with taxpayer’s money?

Perhaps one can remember the awkward confusing mix of both amusement, and disgust, when, after months, even years, of driving down roads with more potholes than an artillery range, they’d seem to magically get paved over a mere 1-2 months before election time. “What a great mayor we have!”, some people would say.

While, “What a clever mayor we have.”, is what the more politically savvy would realize.

But so goes the story with Congressman John Tierney for whom, a mere 3 weeks out from election day, we hear stories of his amazing generosity…. with your money, of course!

Congressman John F. Tierney announced that the Saugus Police Department will receive $643,950 in federal funding as part of the Community Oriented Policing Services (COPS) Hiring Program. This award will allow the Saugus Police Department to hire three additional law enforcement officers.  ~ Grant to fund 3 officers in Saugus

With the Democratic majority failing to honor it’s promise that unemployment wouldn’t go above 8%, and a growing housing crisis that FrankenDodd’s Monster referred to as “non-existent” (while Republicans called for greater regulation of Fannie Mae, and Freddie Mac), there WILL be a need for more police…. that’s for sure.  And, many citizens wouldn’t even have an issue with some taxes if they were absolutely certain the taxes  were going directly to such things as police and fire support rather than slushy back room deals.

flowchart of Obama stimulus plan for which Congressman John Tierney voted

Remember to Thank Your Congressman!!

But with tax & spend piggishness taking place on local, state and federal levels, all the Democratic majority initiatives from the “stimulus”, to “health care reform”, to “cap and trade”, to “(fill in the bloated pig carcass program name here)”, it all really amounts to one big Gulf-sized oil spill of a Democratic party slush fund.

Oh, wait, in fact, here comes another October surprise now!!!

Tierney announces $38,000 grant to keep Gloucester schools safe

The following information was provided by the office of Congressman John F. Tierney:  Congressman John F. Tierney announced that the Gloucester Police Department will receive $38,888 in federal funding as part of the Community Oriented Policing Services (COPS) Secure Our Schools grant program. This award will help the Gloucester Police Department and Gloucester High School enhance safety efforts to prevent violence at our schools.

You know what else helps prevent violence at our schools, Congressman Tierney?  Jobs.  Extra-curricular activities.  And sports programs… the kinds of things we can’t afford while Obama is spending money on reconstructing mosques abroad, or while Congress is giving itself a raise, or while John Kerry is hiding his yacht in Rhode Island, or while Congressman John Tierney is taxing us into oblivion.

But, wait…  Congressman Tierney…. if you’ll toss a little money this way, maybe someone will “help you” back.  Here’s my wish list:

is congressman john tierney buying votes with taxpayers money just before election time?If you think you might lose the upcoming election (hurry, please!):

  1. A new firetruck for each fire station;
  2. New equipment for sports teams; or
  3. More radar detectors and tasers;

And, if you think you might win (take your time, no rush):

  1. A new soup kitchen;
  2. More substance abuse programs;
  3. Free Mandarin and Cantonese as a Second Language Program;

But, whatever the case, Congressman John Tierney, it sure is nice to see you’re up to other stuff besides blaming your opponent for sign stealing and sandbagging the debate process.

Proof Congressman John Tierney is Bad for the Economy

By NOTCongressmanJohnTierney | Published: October 5, 2010

Congressman John Tierney gets an F from National Taxpayers UnionFew, and far between, are the instances where you can find anything positive being said about Congressman John Tierney these days.  That doesn’t mean he’s a bad guy, but it does begin to explain why a recent poll shows the 14yr incumbent Democrat, in an historically blue state, barely has the confidence of 2/5 of the state.  Here, for example, one can find a crony pining for the year 2000 when Congressman Tierney allegedly set up some business partnerships between U.S. and Israeli businesses — the year 2000.

But, for those who take America’s current challenges with the utmost seriousness, it isn’t terribly difficult to get a hold of John Tierney’s actual performance records.  As a more astute constituent in the 6th Congressional District of Massachusetts points out,

On the national level, our spenders are really going wild, but one of the worst is our very own Congressman John Tierney. The latest rankings by the National Taxpayers Union ranks our John in the top 5 percent of all the taxers and spenders in Congress and gave him an “F” ranking — quite an achievement with this Congress. The really sad part is that he has received an “F” grade every year since 1997. He rarely sees a taxing or a spending bill that he doesn’t like.  ~ “On Taxes and Spending, Patrick, Tierney, Get Poor Grades”

Here, how ’bout a couple of pictures to share with your friends?  For every mature American seriously concerned with the way our current economy is headed, these are some of the most important signs you’ll need to be worried about come November 2nd:

Congressman John Tierney & The Party of Can’t Say No

By NOTCongressmanJohnTierney | Published: October 3, 2010

It seems Congressman John Tierney, Nancy Pelosi, and Harry Reid, follow Saul Alinksky's Rules for RadicalsAlong with Nancy Pelosi, and crowd, Congressman John Tierney has become addicted to characterizing Republicans as, “The Party of No”, yet when it comes to ramming tax & spend, liberal policies down your throat, his is “The Party of Can’t Say No”.  In a previous post, for example, it was noted that while Nancy Pelosi and Congressman Tierney were telling you the Republicans had no alternatives to their monstrous health care reform bill, there were actually three Republican alternatives that Pelosi had buried in committee.  That’s right.  She legally hid alternate choices from you because they were authored by Republicans.

And Congressman John Tierney went along with it.

But the truth that Tierney and Pelosi will never tell you is that the Republicans, along with 2/3 of Americans, simply became the “Party of No MORE!”  Instead of recognizing a genuine, grassroots movement arising from the anger of mainstream, middle class America, the Democrats began implementing their Saul Alinsky orders:

  • Ignore
  • Avoid
  • Ridicule & Shame
  • Attack & Blame

Congressman John Tierney seems to take his marching orders from Nancy PelosiFortunately, there is nothing left for the Pelosis and Tierneys of this world to do except get voted out of office because Saul Alinsky’s, “Rules for Radicals” was intended for LOSERS seeking to overthrow.  And, for a brief moment, the extreme liberal Democrats were winners, and had no idea what the heck to do once in power except…

  • Ignore
  • Avoid
  • Ridicule & Shame
  • Attack & Blame

If Congressman John Tierney really cared about the American people, he’d have known what to do once the Democrats controlled all three branches of government and it wouldn’t include tyrannically ramming bloated, unpopular legislation down the throats of those who got him into office in the first place.  Instead, he would do what his opponent has been doing…

  • Acknowledge
  • Meet & Greet
  • Praise & Encourage
  • Take Responsibility & Unite

See what his opponents positions are on the issues.  View some of his challenger’s videos.  Sign up on Facebook with a winner who knows how to treat Americans properly.

Congressman John Tierney and crew seem pretty comfortable with Alinsky's rules for radicals

Nice guy that Alinsky, huh?
