Mitch McConnell Sinks To New Low

Jim Pence October 11th, 2008

Mitch McConnell has said a lot of untrue things about Bruce Lunsford during the course of this campaign, but a new radio ad placed on McConnell’s behalf by the American Energy Alliance charts new territory by repeatedly calling Lunsford a "lobbyist." Bruce Lunsford is not and has never been a lobbyist. The ad blames Bruce Lunsford for high gas prices, a claim earlier called "nonsense," "ridiculous and "simply not true" by leading media outlets.
The American Energy Alliance (AEA) is the grassroots arm of the
Institute for Energy Research (IER) .

Robert L. Bradley, Jr., is the founder and chairman, Institute for Energy Research. Now get this : Bradley was previously Director of Public Policy Analysis at Enron , where he wrote speeches for Kenneth Lay .

Steven F. Hayward, F . K. Weyerhaeuser Fellow, American Enterprise Institute is a Institute for Energy Research board member. Check this quote made by Steven F. Hayward "So welcome to Earth Day, 2004. Not only has global warming theory all but evaporated, but the Earth — and particularly the United States — are in far better shape than eco-activists would have us believe. In fact, recent U.S. environmental trends have nearly all been positive." Steven F. Hayward has also worked at the ultra conservative Heritage Foundation.

These are the folks working for Mitch, what a shame.

    As far as my association for Enron, I fought hard against the company’s windpower investments and climate alarmism, a story that is chronicled at http://www.politicalcapitalism.org/enron/.

    Also, please consult my new book that will be released later this month, Capitalism at Work: Business, Government, and Energy.

    It is important to differentiate between free-market capitalism and political capitalism both with Enron and with the present financial crisis.

    Mitch was kicked out of the Army Reserve because he was caught in the bunk with another man. Ask the arresting officer. He also has love letters from John Cooper to Mitch, but is afraid to let them out for fear of Mitch retaliating. His marriage to Chao is a smokescreen for his base to believe that he is straight.

    Cooper? Makes sense. The book The Georgetown Ladies Club has some paragraphs on Cooper’s wife, Lorraine, how she and John Cooper shared the same sense of humor, had a very lackluster courtship, how unattractive she is, but how they finally made it to the altar. Sounds plausible Lorraine could have been a beard.
