What an absolute dumba$$.
Alaska… Is this really the best you can do?
Republican Don Young just made an ad endorsing far left Democrat Mazie Hirono in the Hawaii senate race.
Unbelievable.
Republican Linda Lingle is currently running ahead of Hirono in the latest US Chamber poll.
The Hill reported:
Rep. Don Young (R-Alaska) has endorsed Rep. Mazie Hirono (D-Hawaii) in her Senate bid, a surprising move since the seat could be in play for Republicans this fall.
Young praises Hirono for working across the aisle in the lighthearted Web ad, in which he repeatedly jokes about criticizing House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) before hugging Hirono at the end. “While Mazie and I don’t see eye to eye on everything, we’ve done something too many people in Washington refuse to cross the aisle and do: We’ve worked together,” Young said in the ad, and praises Hirono for working with him to protect funding for education programs for native Alaskans and Hawaiians. “If you’re looking for a United States senator who doesn’t just talk about bipartisanship but actually knows how to work with Republicans and Democrats to get things done, Mazie Hirono will be that senator.”
Hirono will face off against former Rep. Ed Case (D-Hawaii) in the state’s Aug. 11 primary.
Hirono has one of the most far left voting records in the House of Representatives.

Here ya go: House GOP Leaders Indicate They Will Fund Implementation of Obamacare
Can someone explain the need for a Republican Party when, as time passes, they behave more and more like Democrats?

Because Young wants to get re-elected in DEMOCRAT Hawaii. Screw the rest of the nation.
Cargosquid commented:
The House is going to fund it because they are scared of looking bad if they “cause” a gov’t shut down. If they defund it, it won’t go anywhere anyway. Its a needless fight. The Senate kills it and demands, along with the press, that the GOP “stop playing games”. This makes the GOP look bad just before the election.
The Dems are losing. We need to be quiet and let them keep screwing up.

Well, isn’t that just the cutest ad you have ever seen? If I lived in Alaska or Hawaii, I would vo…(gag), vomit before voting for either of these two. Sometimes I wish we still only had 48 states:)
SnowSoul commented:
Alaska likes their worthless incumbents. Just ask Lisa Murkowski.
Moonbat_One commented:
The late Ted Stevens had a really close relationship to fellow WWII vet Daniel Inoue [sic] the senior senator from Hawaii.
I am sure this endorsement is somehow related to this. Doesn’t make sense. I don’t think Don Young has a whole lot of influence in the state of Hawaii though. So that makes it stupid itself
Don Young’s an old school pork-barrel politician. This endorsement serves those ends somehow.
Moonbat_One commented:
I voted for Miller. A lot of Democrats voted for Murkowski in the general to defeat the Tea Party which won the GOP primary fair and square.
Philip James commented:
This just shows you what sort of a-holes in the Republican Party that Sarah Palin had to deal with in Alaska. Just another Murkowski type.

Mazie’s a DSAer. ViceChair of Socialist Party of America. (Check to see if one of your own is on the list):
The Democrat Socialists of America (DSAUSA) has released a list of 70 congressional representatives who belong to the pseudo-communist group – and, perhaps not so surprisingly, they are all Democrats.
The group, originally named the Socialist Party of America until it was renamed in 1972, originally posted in the Party’s 2009 newsletter, openly brags that of the 70 Representatives who are members, 11 sit on the House Judiciary Committee, two hold Co-Chair positions, and four have Vice-Chair positions.
Independent Bernie Saunders, an open Socialist, is the only U.S. Senator among the Party’s ranks.
Here is the complete list of the Representatives from 111th Congress who are members of the Democrat Socialists of America:
Co-Chairs
Hon. Raúl M. Grijalva (AZ-07)
Hon. Lynn Woolsey (CA-06)
Vice Chairs
Hon. Diane Watson (CA-33)
Hon. Sheila Jackson-Lee (TX-18)
Hon. Mazie Hirono (HI-02)
Hon. Dennis Kucinich (OH-10)

Good God.
Whoever now, after this news, continues to believe that the GOP — having not kicked this DSA whore to the curb- – conservative…
…you have given up your very sanity.
R is the handmaiden of D at this point. Both are the handmaidens of Soros.

If you are going to find a Constitutional conservative he or she will be in the Republican party, but I feel for every 1 conservative you find there you will find 1000 progressives.
Fuquay Steve commented:
Well slap my butt and color me surprised – a GOP with no scruples. To be any more stunned, I’d have to be electrocuted. Sorry a##. Hope he is found lying in his own waste in a dark alley somewhere. Good work uncovering this turd.
pagar commented:
This is insane. A Republican endorsing a Democrat Socialist. Why?
bigL commented:
I just knew that the GOP would do nothing with Obama No care. they see all the power and all the easy mail -in jobs for 300K a year after congess. the 2010ers have really done nothing.
I would vote for Obama in 2012 if I could be assured that the GOP would be ruined and go out of business. and al lthe staffers be unemployed too.
Canter , MConell boehner and the other guy should all resigin as leaders of the GOPers.
Make me sick
Surely in Va there is some one to run against Cantor. all you need is 139000 votes over Cantor;s total . that is what he won by. Run someone.
American Woman commented:
Does she vote like him or does he vote like her?
Yikes, I am so sick of Progressives, especially the ones that pretend they are Conservative. How can you be a Progressive Conservative? Answer: you can’t.

Politics makes strange bedfellows.
There’s more to this story than we’ll probably ever know (but could be as simple as the first thing that comes to mind).
snap boy commented:
That should disqualify him from receiving ANY RNC money in the future. I donate to specific candidates rather than to the RNC because I don’t want my money to help dolts like Young just because there’s an R after their name.
