Jonathan Paton attacking female politician — Ann Kirkpatrick but turns a blind eye to RomneyCare

by on Feb. 11, 2012, under 2012 Presidential elections, female-led political movement, Hispanic Latino Vote

I received a forwarded e-mail from the Jonathan Paton campaign today and they are clearly attacking Ann Kirkpatrick for her ObamaCare support.

Question.

Why isn’t Republican Candidate Jonathan Paton attacking 2012 Republican Presidential candidate Mitt Romney for his RomneyCare views that became the launching pad for ObamaCare?

Is it health care hypocrisy?  Or, does Jon enjoy beating up on female politicians?

If you haven’t figured it out yet….the National Tequila Party Movement is a female-led political movement that will call a male politician out if they are turning a blind eye to other male politicians (like Mitt Romney) with their policy hypocrisy.  It is indeed the truth that Mitt Romney set up RomneyCare that fueled ObamaCare.  Republicans who are supporting Romney / RomneyCare have no leg to stand on….nor can they accuse President Obama with regard to ObamaCare when they are supporting the Mitt who fueled socialized medicine and government healthcare to begin with.

If Republicans nominate Mitt Romney as the GOP nominee….it is clear cut hypocrisy and we will watch the Obama camp turn into a type of Chicago machine leaving Romney in fetal position.

P.S.  In response to Paton’s silly lead from the front statement below:  The Army indeed leads from the rear these days since the Air Force typically clears the area before combat really begins in a  declared war zone.  An air game typically begins ground combat game to decrease casualties.  Perhaps it is time for Paton to re-think his strategy and ideas.

 

Sincerely,

U.S. Air Force Female Veteran

 

 

 

 

 

 

From the Jonathan Paton campaign:

Ann Kirkpatrick has been using an interesting phrase to describe herself lately.

“I’m a leader.”

In the Army, we have a saying that goes, “Lead from the front, not from the rear.” It means that one should lead by example — with the courage to represent and defend one’s district and state.

Ann Kirkpatrick’s time in Congress proved that she is not a leader — she’s a rubber stamp for the Obama agenda.

Ann Kirkpatrick would rather you forget that she walked out on her constituents at a town hall when the questions got too difficult.

 

 

If Ann Kirkpatrick was a leader, she would not have voted for Obamacare,

    Kirkpatrick ducked and avoided even voting on the Dream Act, even after she’d lost reelection, and when the Dream Act passed Congress by only 18 votes. Forget PayDay Patton, forget Duck & Run Kirkpatrick. Wenona Benally Baldenegro,  a real Democrat for Arizona!

    The Affordable Care Act, President Obama’s health-care overhaul passed by Congress last year, was designed to make it easier for Americans in situations like Verone’s to get health insurance BTW check “Penny Medical” for more information

    “David, that’s an unfortunate assumption about Ann and it’s actually not true. She only missed the last-minute vote during the lame duck session because she was undergoing a medical procedure. Ann has always supported the Dream Act — she co-sponsored a version of it in the AZ Legislature. Her campaign web site has has a statement of support for it: http://www.kirkpatrickforarizona.com/issues/immigration-and-border-security

       Policy positions on a website are nice, but actions speak louder than words. 414 members of Congress found the time to vote on this “last minute vote”, including every member of the Arizona delegation – EXCEPT Ann Kirkpatrick.

        That’s some odd logic, David. If you were in the middle of a medical procedure when a vote was called, how would you be able to cast a vote? It sounds like she has supported the legislation for a long time and would’ve voted for it if she could. We need to make sure someone like Paton never gets into office. I hope that’s where Dems expend their energy this year instead of attacking eachother. See too much of that.

        • David_Pinar

           That’s the first I’ve heard of the claim that the reason she missed the Dream Act vote was because of a “medical procedure”, she gave no explanation at the time. I don’t see questioning why she was the only member of the Arizona congressional delegation to not vote on the Dream Act as “attacking each other”, it’s a reasonable question. I happen to support Kirkpatrick’s opponent in the CD1 primary, Wenona Benally Baldenegro. Should Kirkpatrick win the nomination, I will of course support her over the likes of Jonathon Patton. Considering how easily he was bought and paid for by the AZ payday loan industry, we don’t want him anywhere near the lobbyist in Washington.

          • roadwalker

            Since it’s become an issue, she’s had to publically acknowlege the medical procedure but I don’t think congresswoman Kirkpatrick should have been attacked over that, I mean your medical stuff is and should remain private.

            But I’m glad that you see the need to make sure we get a Democrat elected– you’re right, after the primary is over we are all on the same team and have to make sure that Mr. Paton (a carpetbagger like Rick Renzi, who jumped into the district in order to run) is defeated. Either your candidate or mine would be far better than Jonathan Paton.

    This blog makes a great point about Paton and his hypocrisy! I couldn’t stand him in 2010 — yes, I’m a liberal, but even Republican primary voters saw right through him. He raised a lot more $$ than Jesse Kelly and still lost big. I guess this time he’s afraid of another tough primary so he moved to a district with a quick and easy path to the general election. Quick & Easy — sounds like a payday lending store!!!
