CD 12 CONGRESSIONAL CANDIDATE MIKE MOLONEY SUGGESTS CALLING OFF SPECIAL ELECTION

BURLINGAME, CA (03/02/2008)(readMedia)-- My fellow candidates:

I feel very strongly that we should call the special election of April 8 to replace the late Tom Lantos off, and concede the seat to the princess Ms. Jackie Speier. By doing so, we will save the taxpayers of the 12th Congressional District approximately, $1,000.000 dollars. After all, the San Mateo and San Francisco county newspapers, pundits, and the political establishment have declared her a winner.

She is been declared a winner, it is all a charade, and we are being used as puppets to give her crowning legitimacy. The local news media, will not sponsor a debate, will not demand a debate, and frankly they do not have the ability to ask the tough questions regarding foreign affairs. In other words, because of all the cutbacks in the news industry, and the consolidation of the news, the local reporters do not have the time to educate the people.

In other words, is all a farce. Jackie Speier lays claim to the late congressman Tom Lantos' seat. Tom Lantos, to the day of his depart was working to extricate the United States from Iraq, and to bring the troops home. Jackie Speier has absolutely no prior foreign policy experience, in fact, Tom Lantos said the same thing. Yet, what this Congressional race is all about is foreign policy. So you see why, I consider this whole process a waste of time. What do you think?
