Knollenberg's Chief of Staff Is Not Only A Lobbyist

but he must recognize that Knollenberg is in over his head this year.

It appears that Trent Wisecup, Knollenberg's Lobbyist Chief of Staff, can't find anyone to write letters in support of Knollenberg so he is having his family members write letters to the editors of local papers to support Joe Knollenberg.

You gotta know your candidates is in trouble when the only people who support him are his paid staff and their family members.

Of course it is published in the Radical Right Wing Detroit News -- the only organization in the country with less credibility than the Bush White House. Notice how ALL the letters to the editor on that page agree with the Radical Right wing talking points?

I've never seen anything so low as to getting your daughter to write a letter to the editor to shore up your pathetic candidate/congressman. This is a new low, even for Joe.

I cracked up when I read that letter this evening -- it's not exactly a common name, so it had to be one of Trent's relatives. I also noticed that they didn't print any letters from the other side of the issue. I thought Laura wrote a good column. No one wants the Big Three to fail -- we just want them to change with the times so they can be successful -- by building hybrids, fuel cells, electric cars, etc., which we all know they are capable of doing. The sooner people realize this and push for them to retool, the better off we'll all be.

And the auto companies know that after gas hit $3/gal, people are back thinking about wanting better mileage vehicles. They are going to make them to please the market.

Joe is just on the wrong side of another issue.

lib, so is levin and dingell then.

regardless, bruce, your rhetoric at times can be so humorous as to defy my ability to control my laughter.

first, you say here it's his daughter. somewhere else I read his wife. which is it? and maybe she felt strongly about the issue -- are you saying that wives shouldn't get involved in politics? to play off your own hyperbolic rhetorical style, you are saying that equality is "pathetic" to you?

second, that letter to the editor section had multiple letters supporting joe - not just the wisecup letter. and what does your ad hominem have to do with the argument itself? you may be right that political operatives use the letter to the editor system shrewdly - but if a letter is factually or otherwise persuasive, it does you no good to attack the messenger.

the CAPTCHA below says uglyq - how ironic - your style of attack is quite ugly.
