Well this is my first diary here. I have waited anxiously for my newbie week to pass and am glad it finally has. Never figured I would write something but as my interest was growing, I figured it was best to "pre-register :)
As a Canadian I suppose my words will not carry much weight but my never ending interest in politics gets the best of me at times. Afterall, we have enough to deal with north of the border (not sure how Palin's state fits in any more since McCain's staff and not hers is in charge now) with our own election - but yours is just so much more enticing!!!!
After reading this evening the scurling news of Rick Davis The Overheard Wire (not that we never saw that one coming) I thought I would post something I have yet to see any where here along with many of the other sites.
Nancy Pfotenhauer, a woman that has irked me for the strangest reasons - even more that Mrs. Sarah Palin - has been driving me nuts by all of the interviews she has been participating since and during the RNC convention. There is no doubt to her lobbyist connections in her past but if you only dig one level deeper, we come across.... "fasten your seatbelts now"..... her husband.
Kurt Pfotenhauer, holds the position of Senior Vice President, Government Affairs, Mortgage Bankers Association.
Kurt Pfotenhauer is senior vice president of Government Affairs for the Mortgage Bankers Association (MBA), responsible for the overall management and implementation of MBA's legislative and regulatory efforts. In this position, he oversees policy formulation, strategy development and the organization of MBA's Government Affairs team.
Prior to joining MBA in May 2002, Pfotenhauer was chief of staff to Sen. Gordon Smith (R-OR) for five years. In that position, he advised the senator in political, communications and policy areas related to a variety of Senate committee assignments.
Rick + Nancy + Kurt = McCain (Crooked)... actually, allow me to rephrase that.
Rick + Nancy + Kurt = Crooked McCain. I am sure we can easily add more but I had to restrict the title length. LOL, I guess that says it right there Senator McCain.
My definition of 'Crooked' may be different that yours, but to me it fits very well.
