Ablogination

Ever buy at a used car lot? Sounds creepy I know, but it always poses the same difficult, intriguing question. Which piece of crap is less crappy.
Ultimately, that’s the only thing that matters….

I’m thankful to God that I’m not a Republican. Even death seems preferable to spiritual stagnation, moral turpitude, and an existence steeped in fear. I have, in the past, entertained the thought of what it would feel like to be a registered Republican voter. I came up with anything from needing a hot shower to well, nothing. Nothing is what one would have to feel to vote for evil and be able to sleep at night.
A sociopathic world view just isn’t for me I guess.

But in light of the upcoming Repiglikan Primary and the fact that Johnson City, TN Mayor, Phil Roe, is challenging for Filthy Jesus-Pimp, David Davis’ Congressional seat in TN-1, I’m tempted to put on my waders and trudge my way through the cesspool that is a GOP primary voting day.

I’ve viewed it before, from afar. It reminded me of one of those cheap, roaming carnivals that pop up in your town every once in a while. Complete with Bearded Ladies, sad-faced clowns, and things to throw darts at. At least… things you’d like to throw darts at.
As aesthetically displeasing as it can be, this time it would be well worth the travail. This time there would be a chance to remove the single most useless, destructive, and dangerous Congressman District one has ever had the misfortune of being represented by.

David Davis.

Phil Roe - David “Jesus Pimp” Davis

Let’s compare Roe and Davis and see just where we come to:

1) Duty to Country and people?
Phil Roe served his country in the US Army. David Davis is a chickenhawk. He’s pro war but never fought in one and will not let his children sacrifice for their country.
As a House Representative, Davis has consistently voted against our Troops.

2) Medical Professional?
Phil Roe’s credentials,
Military Service, U.S. Army

* 1973-1974 Captain 2nd Infantry Division
Camp Casey, Korea 121 Evacuation Hospital, Seoul, Korea
* 1974 Fort Eustis, Virginia
Rank: Major, U.S. Army Medical Corps

David Davis’ credentials,
Vocational certifications from two cheap, C-class colleges.

3) Slandering Jesus?
Phil Roe is a Methodist, and therefore humble in his ways according to the doctrine of Christ.

David Davis has used Jesus and the Christian faith as a stepping stone to personal gain. Earning himself the title of Jesus-Pimp extraordinaire’, Davis shamelessly exploited the most holy of names to gain money and votes during the 2006 congressional elections. The proof is HERE.

4) Liar, Liar, pants on fire!

‘It’s not about politics, it’s about people’- Phil Roe
He is a Republican so this surely could be a lie. But that remains to be seen.

David Davis, in 2006, represented himself as being “from Johnson City, TN". That statement was removed from his web page after Ablogination called and questioned his staff about it.
They stated emphatically on the phone that he was “from Johnson City". The fact is, he’s from Anderson, Indiana. Not Tennessee.
After informing his staff as to his place of rearing we were promptly hung up on.

No big deal, unless you try to cover it up and it takes the form of a deception. Then you’re a liar, nothing more.

All in all, it’s the voting record that matters most. Obviously Roe doesn’t have one yet. But Davis does and it’s one of the most disgusting records imaginable. Davis votes consistently against people and for corporate interests.

Davis voted against:

Bringing our troops home and against supplying them with badly needed equipment.

Health Care for Children

Funding for Emergency personnel and other first responders.

Making Big Oil pay their fair share of taxes.

Clean water and clean energy.

…and a host of other fine, American Dream oriented legislative efforts like lower prescription costs for senior citizens, medical Marijuana, higher minimum wage, and punishing environmental terrorists, such as strip miners, for the damage to our eco-system.

In short, David Davis has failed.

Phil Roe has his head up his ass on a lot of issues, but he does have the right take on many others. David Davis is wrong 100% of the time.

Davis has to go, he just has to go. And if TN-1 isn’t smart enough to elect a Democratic Rep, at least we can un-elect a complete and total loser.

Vote Roe in the Republican Primary August 7th.
