Percy Sutton dies, Obama Harvard education paid for, Dr. Khalid al-Mansour, Sutton television statement, al-Mansour paid for Obama’s Harvard education

From the NY Times, December 27, 2009.

“Percy Sutton, Civil Rights Attorney, Dies at 89”

“Percy Sutton, the pioneering civil rights attorney who represented Malcolm X before launching successful careers as a political power broker and media mogul, has died. He was 89.

Marissa Shorenstein, a spokeswoman for Gov. David Paterson, confirmed that Sutton died Saturday. She did not know the cause. His daughter, Cheryl Sutton, declined to comment Saturday when reached by phone at her New York City home.

The son of a slave, Percy Sutton became a fixture on 125th Street in Harlem after moving to New York City following his service with the famed Tuskegee Airmen in World War II. His Harlem law office, founded in 1953, represented Malcolm X and the slain activist’s family for decades.

The consummate politician, Sutton served in the New York State Assembly before taking over as Manhattan borough president in 1966, becoming the highest-ranking black elected official in the state.

Sutton also mounted unsuccessful campaigns for the U.S. Senate and mayor of New York, and served as political mentor for the Rev. Jesse Jackson’s two presidential races.

Jackson recalled Sutton talking about electing a black president as early as 1972. Sutton was influential in getting his 1984 campaign going, he said.”

One of the more interesting statements that Percy Sutton made and that the biased mainstream media ignored, was his revelation that Dr. Khalid al-Mansour paid for Obama’s Harvard education.

From American Thinker, December 27, 2009.

“Percy Sutton dies; His Obama revelation omitted from obituaries”
“However, one of Sutton’s most notable moments is absent from the media hagiographies I have seen: he stated on television that he knew that an Islamic supremacist, Dr. Khalid al-Mansour, and advisor to a wealthy Saudi, had paid for Barack Obama’s education at Harvard Law School.
Exactly how young Barack Obama, a man of slender means, managed to pay for a Harvard Law degree has long been a mystery, and the President has not been forthcoming about any details of his elite education.”

“Now, I’m addicted to hopium.
It’s America’s most powerful drug. Once on hopium, you won’t care if Iran has nukes or if taxes are raised during a recession or whether Obama keeps flipping and flopping on everything from foreign wiretaps to withdrawing troops from Iraq.”…John Kass, Chicago Tribune, July 30, 2008

 

The following comment was received on this blog and posted March 21, 2008.

“Obama has a dual citizenship with Kenya. His passport was breached today by inquiring minds because Obama is an anti-Israel pro-pan-arabism Islamic-socialist who has ties to marxist Libyan president Muammar al Gadaffi, Syrian tycoon Antoin Rezko, Saudi Arabian sheikhs, and Rezko’s “close friend” 3.5 million money pal Auchi, the one who gave Obama fundraiser money: Iraqi billionaire global arms dealer Nadhmi Auchi, was Baathist best friends with Saddam Hussein, and the main financial backer for Saddam’s Iraqi-Saudi oil pipeline, and who stood trial with Saddam in 1959 for conspiring to assassinate Iraqi President Qasim, (Saddam even killed Auchi’s brother, but they remained best friends), also marxist Nicaraguan President Daniel Ortega is on the frontline supporting Obama for the revolution of the change, and then there’s hardcore anti-Israel, pro-Palestine PLO enforcer Rashid Khalidi, (Obama was on Khalidi’s Woods Fund). Obama was a member of the Woods Fund with communist domestic terrorist Bill Ayers of the Weather Underground who bombed the Pentagon, the US Capital, among other things, and their organization raised money for anti-Israel programs, and also AAAN, for Arabs, and then there’s especially Kenya… where in August of 2007 Obama went to support his E. Germany communist educated cousin Raila Odinga for Kenyan presidential election who claims, coincidentally, to also be a Christian yet who signed NAMLEF and other pacts with radical Muslims who set churches filled with Christians on fire, and macheted them in the streets, causing a political and religious mini-civil war over the MuO.
Sorry folks, I studied all of Obama’s mentors, buddies, political affiliations, organizational memberships, and all of his *hard-core militant Muslim* family members, like his brother Abongo “Roy” Odinga who hates America, and their communist grandfather who ran with Russia and hated America, not to mention his socialist connection to his profound childhood mentor Frank Marshall Davis, a member of the Communist Party, CPUSA, and…well, we know Pastor Wright, Jesse Jackson, Jesse Jackson JR, Al Sharpton, and Nation of Islam minister Louis Farrakhan….and they have a *few* issues with america, white people, and jews—> so simply reverse it, and you’ll see they care about: Africa, Blacks, and Muslims, which can be corroborated by things they have said along with their affiliations.
*Don’t forget that Obama’s 2004 U.S. Senate political opponent, Republican Alan Keyes, accused Obama of being a “hard-core academic Marxist.”
-Marxist Nicaraguan President’s endorsement is for Obama, and he says: “It’s not to say that there is already a revolution under way in the U.S.; but yes, they [supporters of Barack Obama] are laying the foundations for a revolutionary change”
*Obama’s endorsement by Black Panthers. Check out their politics, ahem. Well, they are Marxist, of course.
__Militant Islam is the new Communism.__
**Socialism must be accompsihed through proletariat exchange, a revolution, and if you really see it, easily, you will see that the west, america, white people–rich white people–are the enemy. Obama titled his book “Audacity of Hope” after Pastor Wright’s sermon about the need to destroy capitalism and the middle-class at the hands of rich white america and the west. Race OVERRULES religion. POLITICS overrule race and religion: it’s about the change.
Pan-Arabism and Islamic-Socialism spans globally, it embraces not just governments as such but also individuals. All-black-brown people who are against the bourgeoise…rich-white, capitalist, american, western power:”
 
The question for you today is which of the following components of Obama’s background has the most influence on Obama’s foreign policy and position on Iraq, Afghanistan, Iran, Israel, Middle East, etc.?
Muslim background and ties.
Corruption ties with links to Middle East.
Leftist, socialist friends and supporters.

Umar Farouk Abdul Mutallab, Terror Suspect Allowed to Fly, No air marshall, Terrorist connections, Mutallab in database, US database of suspected terrorists, Jasper Schuringa hero, Representative Peter King, Why Was Known Terror Suspect Allowed to Fly?

A known terrorist suspect, Umar Farouk Abdul Mutallab, with definite al Qaeda links, who was in a US database of suspected terrorists, was not on the no fly list “because it did not involve aviation threats.” That decision was foolish and incompetent enough. Knowing that Abdul Mutallab was connected to al Qaeda and a terrorist threat and not on the no fly list, no US Marshall was assigned to this flight.

This is inexcusable and unacceptable.

From Politics Daily, December 25, 2009.

“Rep. Peter King: Why Was Known Terror Suspect Allowed to Fly?”

“A Christmas Day attempt by a Nigerian man who claimed he was acting on orders from al Qaeda to ignite an incendiary device on Northwest Airlines Flight 253 as it approached Detroit from Amsterdam has caused airport security to be ramped up during peak holiday travel. The Obama White House has called the incident “an attempted act of terrorism.””

“King told Politics Daily the 23-year-old suspect, who he identified as Abdul Mudallad, was not on a terrorist no fly list–but was on the U.S. database of suspected terrorists, King said. Though Mudallad claims to have been acting on direct orders from al Qaeda, ties have not been confirmed and he may have been inspired by, rather than acting in concert with, that particular terror group.”

“King told Politics Daily that Mudallad had “definite terrorist connections” and was part of a “terrorist nexus. ..his terrorist connections did not lend themselves to aviation threats, that’s why he was not on a no-fly list which to me does not really make sense; if you’re a terrorist you’re a terrorist.” And King said he had been told that Mudallad had “definite al Qaeda links.” Mudallad boarded a flight in Lagos, Nigeria and switched planes in Amsterdam to the Detroit bound aircraft.

King said said authorities did have “a file on him. He was in a database, but the decision was made that he did not go on a no fly list because it did not involve aviation threats, aviation issues.”

Because of a “significant terrorist presence” in Nigeria, King said, “maybe he should have been on the terrorist no fly list.””

Dutch hero stops terrorist, Abdul Mutallab, Jasper Schuringa, Flaming, molten object , Strapped to his leg, Schuringa film director, Muslim terrorist

From Fox News, December 26, 2009.

“Dutch Passenger Hurls Into Action to Stop Alleged Terrorist on Plane”

“A Dutch airline passenger told The Post how he leapt into action when an alleged Muslim terrorist tried to blow up a Detroit-bound airliner packed with 300 people just moments before landing.

Chaos erupted as alleged terrorist Umar Farouk Abdul Mutallab, 23, tried to set off a sophisticated explosive device strapped to his body.
“Suddenly, we hear a bang. It sounded like a firecracker went off,” said Jasper Schuringa, a film director who was traveling to the US to visit friends.

“When [it] went off, everybody panicked … Then someone screamed, ‘Fire! Fire!’”

Schuringa, sitting in seat 20J, in the right-most section of the Airbus 330, looked to his left. “I saw smoke rising from a seat … I didn’t hesitate. I just jumped,” he said.

Schuringa dove over four passengers to reach Abdul Mutallab’s seat. The suspect had a blanket on his lap. “It was smoking and there were flames coming from beneath his legs.”

“I searched on his body parts and he had his pants open. He had something strapped to his legs.”

The unassuming hero ripped the flaming, molten object — which resembled a small, white shampoo bottle — off Abdul Mutallab’s left leg, near his crotch. He said he put out the fire with his bare hands.”

Bart Stupak, Obama pressure, Obama Administration Bullying Congressman Stupak, Abortion funding, Taxpayer financing of abortions, Obama thugs

“No man can serve two masters: for either he will hate the one, and love the other; or else he will hold to the one, and despise the other. Ye cannot serve God and mammon.”…Matthew 6:24

 

Congressman Bart Stupak is being bullied by the Obama thugs to remain silent and accept the Reid Nelson compromise that allows taxpayer financing of abortions.

“Greta Interviews Bart Stupak over White House Bullying”

From Life News, December 23, 2009.

“Stupak: Obama Admin Bullying Me to Accept Abortion Funding in Health Care”

“Congressman Bart Stupak, the pro-life Democrat who has been the consistent champion against abortion funding in the health care bill, says the Obama administration is trying to bully him. Stupak says in a new interview that he will not back down in the face of pressure from the White House.

Stupak told CNS News that the White House and top Congressional Democrats are attempting to twist his arm to accept the Reid-Nelson “compromise” language that still allows massive taxpayer financing of abortions.

“They think I shouldn’t be expressing my views on this bill until they get a chance to try to sell me the language,” Stupak told CNSNews Tuesday.

“Well, I don’t need anyone to sell me the language. I can read it. I’ve seen it. I’ve worked with it. I know what it says. I don’t need to have a conference with the White House. I have the legislation in front of me here,” Stupak said defiantly.

Stupak said the White House specifically requested that he not talk about the Nelson sellout and the language that the Senate has approved via the Reid manager’s amendment.

Stupak said that the White House “asked me just to hold off for awhile and not to say anything about this language.”
He told the conservative news outlet, “But as soon as the news broke that they had this [compromise], and they got the 60 votes, folks were asking me, and I’m not going to run from the issue I’m going to stand up and say, ‘Look, here’s my objections.’ Here – it’s not just my objections – but there’s a number of my [colleagues] who feel strongly about this issue, and these are the parts that have to be fixed.””

“Stupak said after Nelson’s compromise that he will not back down and will “hold firm” against abortion funding.”

Congressman Bart Stupak, we stand beside you in spirit and in person if necessary.

Don’t back down.

Merry Christmas, God Bless us all, God bless America, Jesus birthday, Prince of Peace, Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace, good will toward men

From a friend.

I will be making a conscious effort to wish everyone a Merry CHRISTmas this year … My way of saying that I am celebrating the birth Of Jesus Christ the Prince of Peace and King of Love. So I am asking my email buddies, if you agree with me, to please do the same. And if you’ll pass this on to your email buddies, and so on…maybe we can prevent one more American tradition from being lost in the sea of “Political Correctness”.

Luke, chapter 2

1 And it came to pass in those days, that there went out a decree from Caesar Augustus that all the world should be taxed.

2 (And this taxing was first made when Cyrenius was governor of Syria.)

3 And all went to be taxed, every one into his own city.

4 And Joseph also went up from Galilee, out of the city of Nazareth, into Judaea, unto the city of David, which is called Bethlehem; (because he was of the house and lineage of David:)

5 To be taxed with Mary his espoused wife, being great with child.

6 And so it was, that, while they were there, the days were accomplished that she should be delivered.

7 And she brought forth her firstborn son, and wrapped him in swaddling clothes, and laid him in a manger; because there was no room for them in the inn.
8 And there were in the same country shepherds abiding in the field, keeping watch over their flock by night.

9 And, lo, the angel of the Lord came upon them, and the glory of the Lord shone round about them: and they were sore afraid.

10 And the angel said unto them, Fear not: for, behold, I bring you good tidings of great joy, which shall be to all people.

11 For unto you is born this day in the city of David a Saviour, which is Christ the Lord.

12 And this shall be a sign unto you; Ye shall find the babe wrapped in swaddling clothes, lying in a manger.

13 And suddenly there was with the angel a multitude of the heavenly host praising God, and saying,

14 Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace, good will toward men.

Wikipedia, Obama, Democrat party, Socialism, Internet scrubbing, Health Care Bill explained, Norman Thomas speech, John Bingham, Natural born citizen, Andy Martin, Obama socialist agenda

Recently, the Citizen Wells blog provided exerpts from the DNC 2008 rules. Those exerpts clearly revealed that the Democrat party is self serving and that America, the US Constitution and the citizens are not their priority. The ramming down our throats of a unwanted health care bill reveals their socialist priorities.

From Citizen Wells, May 12, 2009
“From a 1944 Norman Thomas speech:
“The American people will never knowingly adopt socialism.

But, under the name of “liberalism”,

they will adopt every fragment of the socialist program,

until one day America will be a socialist nation,

without knowing how it happened.”

“I no longer need to run as a Presidential Candidate for the Socialist Party.

The Democratic Party has adopted our platform.”

*** I did not get the quote from Wikipedia originally, but I did read it there before writing this article. It was there approx 1 and 1/2 hours ago. I just checked and it is not there. Did Wikipedia scrub the quote? ***”
Wikipedia internet scrubbing part 1

From Citizen Wells, May 21, 2009

“We have the second instance of internet scrubbing reported on this blog in the past several weeks. Today, one of the great commenters on this blog, GBAmerica brought this to our attention:

“They scrubbed Wiki!Our founding father John Bingham from the state of Ohio defined Natural Born Citizen!To hold highest office you must be a natural born citizen which means to be born on US soil and BOTH PARENTS to be BORN on US soil with no Foreign or Domestic Soverigty from any of them!It doesn’t matter where he is born his father was NOT BORN HERE!!!John Bingham put that there to protect WE THE PEOPLE!!!Look it up at the library!””
Wikipedia internet scrubbing part 2

Now Andy Martin presents the following:

“U.S. Senate candidate Andy Martin says Barack Obama is using a web of tax-exempt organizations, sometimes secretly and surreptitiously, to implement his socialist agenda in “Obama’s ‘Amerika.'” Martin says Wikimedia/Wikipedia is an arm of the “Obama Smear Machine” and is used both to protect Obama and slime Obama’s “enemies” and “opponents.” Martin says Obama’s socialist elves now have to work overtime: the American People have become Obama’s opposition.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE:
 
An Illinois judge will hear a request for a preliminary injunction against Wikimedia/Wikipedia
 
Andy Martin says the Wikimedia Foundation is nothing more than a tax-exempt division of Barack Obama’s political operations
 
Martin’s lawsuit charges that Wikimedia falsely invokes the Communications Decency Act to defraud federal and state judges as to the true nature of Wikipedia’s operations
 
Martin is seeking an injunction against Wikimedia/Wikipedia
 
(CHICAGO)(December 23, 2009)  Republican U. S. Senate candidate and insurgent “Internet Powerhouse” Andy Martin announced today that a Sangamon County, Illinois court will conduct a hearing on January 8, 2010 on his Motion for a Preliminary Injunction against the Wikimedia Foundation.
 
“After speaking with the Wikimedia’s lawyers I am absolutely convinced that this is a tax evasion scam being orchestrated by socialists to support Barack Obama and oppose Obama’s ‘enemies,'” Martin states. “Well, they will have to work overtime, as the American people have now become Barry Obama’s ‘enemies.’ Obama is trying to destroy America, and he is using his socialist cronies in the Wikimedia operation to assist in his carnage.
 
“Counsel advised me that Wikimedia/Wikipedia had no interest in truth, and would continue to ‘lock’ total lies about me on its supposedly neutral and politically impartial site.
 
“We will also be filing a complaint with the IRS against this Obama-related tax scam. Imagine, they are using tax-exempt assets to pay high-priced lawyers to defend their efforts to sabotage Obama’s opponents and ‘enemies,’ all while Obama raises taxes on the middle class. That’s what passes for ‘change’ in Obama’s ‘Amerika.’ Tens of millions voted for this socialist joker last year; now they are paying the price, and also paying for Obama’s tax-exempt legal goon squads.
 
“Wake up, America, before it’s too late,” Martin says.

Re: Lawsuit against Wikimedia Foundation, Inc. et al.
 
 
Dear counsel and defendants:
 
This will confirm my conversation with Mr. Stroh earlier today in which he advised me he had sent me a letter (he agreed to fax it, but I have not yet seen the letter).
 
Mr. Stroh advised me there was some doubt whether the lawsuit was on file and with this letter I am enclosing a copy of the stamped new case summary.
 
Mr. Stroh said that he was not yet authorized to accept notices on behalf of the defendants and stated I should serve the defendants directly with all notices until he actually files an appearance. I will respect his request.
 
This letter confirms in writing that agreement.
 
I also advised Mr. Stroh that I was seeking a hearing from the court on an emergency preliminary injunction, and Mr. Stroh would not advise me of any dates that were convenient for him.
 
As soon as I get a hearing date and time from the Court I will advise the defendants (but per his request not Mr. Stroh).
 
I will be serving all of the defendants at the Wikimedia location since that is obviously their place of business in relation to this lawsuit.
 
Please also be advised that in the next day or two I will be filing a complaint with the IRS concerning the political abuses by Wikimedia of its tax-exempt status to foster political attacks on “enemies” and “friends” of Barack Obama and other leftist causes and persons. That is not a proper use of a tax-exempt foundation that claims to be neutral and detached in its operations.
 
Obviously, by its own admissions, Wikimedia is neither neutral nor detached in its reportage and is being used as a political attack weapon by Obama’s supporters on the hard left at Wikimedia Foundation.
 
Mr. Stroh also advised me that the bogus entry on me would continue to be “locked” and that Wikimedia would neither remove nor allow to be corrected the lies and distortions being disseminated to influence a campaign for federal office and to undermine my efforts to find the facts and seek the truth about who Barack Obama really is.
 
I advised Mr. Stroh that Wikimedia might also have to register with the Federal Election Commission as a political committee due to its publication of pro and anti-Obama materials under strict control of a secret political presidium, all of which is directed at influencing a federal campaign in Illinois.
 
If any of the foregoing is in error, please advise me in writing.
 
Please call if you have any questions. I want to ensure you are afforded every procedural courtesy.
 
With best wishes,
 
ANDY MARTIN

ACORN, Health Care Bill, Harry Reid, Manager’s amendment, Racial quotas, Department of Health and Human Services

From One News Now, December 23, 2009.

“Who benefits from Senate healthcare? ACORN!”

“A legal scholar says the Senate healthcare bill is not only stuffed full of racial quotas and preferences, but it also gives the disgraced liberal activist group ACORN opportunities to receive funding from the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS).

 
Harry Reid’s (D-Nevada) “manager’s amendment” in the Senate healthcare bill requires that six federal agencies each establish an “Office of Minority Health.” Under that requirement, HHS Secretary Kathleen Sebelius is supposed to award grants and contracts to organizations that are “indigenous human resource providers in communities of color” and engage in “community outreach activities” — the type of work ACORN says it has been doing for years.
 
Hans von Spakovsky, a senior legal fellow at The Heritage Foundation, says scandal-plagued ACORN — the Association of Community Organizers for Reform Now — is exactly the kind of organization that will be applying for and receiving these federal funds.
 
“It illustrates this wrong assumption that’s all throughout this huge bill, and that is there are all these racial preferences and racial quotas everywhere in it,” he explains.  “There’s this whole assumption by the left that the disparities in healthcare have to do with the racial background of doctors — something that is completely untrue — and it’s these kinds of things that in fact may worsen healthcare across the country.””

Larry Sinclair for Congress, Contract with Florida congressional district 24, Contract with America, Taxpayer money, Transparency

Larry Sinclair is running for Congress in Florida congressional district 24 as an independent. Larry Sinclair, despite the multitude of lies told about him, has done everything he has told me he was going to do, including writing and publishing a book about his drug and sex encounter with Barack Obama in 1999. I spoke at length with Larry several days ago about the disgusting behaviour of congressmen, especially their out of control spending of taxpayer money. Ever since I began following Larry Sinclair and his allegations early in 2008, it was apparent that Larry was not in this for the money. In fact, I have proof.  If I did not believe that Larry Sinclair is sincere about his contract below, I would not publish it.

Larry Sinclair is going to need contributions to have any chance of success. He is also in need of volunteers in Florida. I will be posting more information about this soon.

Larry Sinclair and I are on the same page in regard to frugality and not wasting taxpayer money. I believe that Larry means every word below.

From Larry Sinclair for Congress:

Larry’s Contract with Florida’s 24.

I, Larry Sinclair (employee) do enter into “Larry’s Contract With Florida’s 24,” with all residents of Florida’s 24th Congressional District (employer) effective upon my election on November 2, 2010 to the United States House of Representatives.

The terms of “Larry’s Contract With Florida’s 24” will remain valid from the date elected (November 2, 2010 through such date Larry Sinclair is replaced by the voters of Florida’s 24th Congressional District.

I, Larry Sinclair, do agree to resign immediately from the U.S. House of Representatives (FL-24) upon the failure to comply with a single term of “Larry’s Contract With Florida’s 24” as set forth below:

1. I Larry Sinclair will NOT use one-cent of Tax-payer money to pay for any housing of any kind in Washington, D.C. or the surrounding areas while occupying Florida 24’s Congressional seat.

2.  I Larry Sinclair will NOT use one-cent of Tax-payer money, directly nor indirectly, for any travel necessary and/or associated with my holding of Florida’s 24th Congressional Seat (including no use of military aircraft)

3.  I Larry Sinclair WILL require that every Bill and/or amendment to any Bill be read aloud on the floor of the U.S. House of Representatives in its entirety before any vote can take place.

4.  I Larry Sinclair will NOT vote in favor of a single House Bill that contains one-cent of ear-marks for any congressional district of any kind.  In addition I will immediately call out every member of Congress who seeks ear-marks.

5.  I Larry Sinclair will NOT use one-cent of Tax-payer money to pay for a single meal, beverage, hotel room, airline ticket, etc…even if related to my job.  I will pay for any and all such items in full from my salary as Rep. from Florida 24.

6.  I Larry Sinclair will be on the floor of the U.S. House of Representatives for every single vote during my term in the U.S. House.

7.  I Larry Sinclair will fill any and all positions in my office with persons from Florida’s 24th Congressional District; I will NOT attend and/or participate in any political fund raisers during any time the U.S. Congress is in session;and, I WILL personally return every call from residents of Florida’s 24th Congressional District within 72 hours.

8.  I Larry Sinclair will clearly post on the Internet a complete list of all persons meeting with me in my House Office each week.  This list will include the names, Company/Organization represented, date, time and the exact amount of time each meeting took.  In addition all meetings will be recorded and made available to residents of Florida 24.

9.  I Larry Sinclair will return home to Florida’s 24th Congressional District every week/weekend the U.S. House is not in session and will meet with residents of Florida’s 24th Congressional District every weekend (each Saturday I will meet with FL-24 residents in two (2) different areas of the district.)

10.  I Larry Sinclair will NOT sell my vote in Congress, and I WILL listen to ALL residents in FL-24 (I will not be bullied, threatened or intimidated by Barack Obama, Nancy Pelosi or anyone else.)

Parker Griffith announcement, Switches parties, Griffith Republican, Griffith leaves Democrat party, Health care bill bad for doctors

Representative Parker Griffith of Alabama announces his switch from the Democrat to Republican party.

Parker Griffith did not just vote against the Health care bill and other harmful legislation, he sent a strong signal that the Democrat party is not good for this country.

From CBS News blog, December 22, 2009.

“Parker Griffith, Democratic Representative, Switches Parties to GOP”

“Rep. Parker Griffith, a freshman Democrat from Alabama, announced Tuesday that he is switching parties to become a Republican.

“I believe our nation is at a crossroads and I can no longer align myself with a party that continues to pursue legislation that is bad for our country, hurts our economy, and drives us further and further into debt,” Griffith, 67, said at a press conference at his home, according to the Associated Press.

Some aren’t surprised by Griffith’s switch. He has voted against all major Democratic initiatives this year, including the stimulus, cap and trade and health care bills.

He’s also spoken out against House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, saying that he would not vote for her to be speaker again.”

“A radiation oncologist, Griffith cited the Democrats’ health care plans as a reason for his switch. He was one of 39 Democrats to vote against the bill in the House last month.

“I want to make it perfectly clear that this bill is bad for our doctors,” he said at the press conference, according to the AP. “It’s bad for our patients. It’s bad for the young men and women who are considering going into the health care field.”

“The success of Republicans in the off-year elections last month also appears to be a reason for his decision to switch parties. Griffith told Politico then that he wanted to be called an independent Blue Dog, not a Democrat. “I should be nervous,” he added.”

“When a Member of Congress decides to leave a 258 seat majority to join a deep minority, it is a sure sign that the majority party has become completely disconnected from seniors, young workers, and families in America,” Cantor said in a statement. “We welcome Parker Griffith to the Republican Conference, and will continue to stand and fight against the damaging agenda of this Administration working in tandem with the Pelosi/Reid run Congress.”

“Parker Griffith is a dedicated public servant who has consistently put the best interests of his constituents first, and it is in that spirit that Republicans welcome him,” Boehner added. “With today’s decision, Congressman Griffith has added his voice to the growing chorus of Americans who have had it with Democrats’ wrong-headed policies and lack of leadership.””
