Peter Deutsch tells Democrats
to “Drink the Bushit!”
A true and accurate account
by Jeannine Ross 04/16/01
I
went to see Congressman Deutsch tonight at a town meeting in Davie, FL. If you thought you knew whom your enemies
were, think again. This man who was the
most outspoken “friend” to the Democrats and Al Gore during the post election
fiasco is the biggest traitor to come out of our party to date.
I
figured I had a good opportunity to confront the man about why the Democrats
aren’t doing anything about the fraud that took place in Florida. I arrived early and got a front row
seat. Deutsch’s District Director,
Jennifer Irving, approached me all smiles and niceties. She asked why I was there. I told her I wanted to ask him about the
election and why no one is doing anything.
She said he was very outspoken about it, the most vocal one of all, and
it was just those Republicans. Right.
Eerily,
she reminded me of the woman who was an aid to Florida’s Attorney General, Bob
Butterworth. She came up to us at the
U.S. Commission on Civil Rights in Miami and asked us for our names and numbers
for our testimony. She said Butterworth was gathering evidence for an
investigation. Are you surprised we
never heard from her?
And
she reminded me of the aid to Wexler’s office when we turned in 1200 petitions
for a Federal Investigation on January 5th – the day before the
electors were to be approved. She said
Congressman Wexler would be in touch with Alcee Hastings and would go along
with his decision about challenging the electors. Funny, that didn’t happen either.
Well,
I asked Deutsch what happened to the 30,000 affidavits taken by the Democrats
by disenfranchised voters, and the 2500 plus complaints filed to Bob
Butterworth. I asked why 20 out of 67
counties were never recounted the first time BY LAW! I asked why there is no federal investigation of the felons
list. I asked why the media is ignoring
the protests going on everyday.
What
was Mr. Deutsch’s response? “I think
George Bush is a Legitimate President,”
“You’re not going to change my mind,”
“The election is over.”
This
man is plain and simple a traitor. I challenged him as he tried to change the subject. He did admit more people in Florida voted for
Gore, but . . . He did admit that
the felons list happened, but . . .
This
is the man who was supposedly the leader of our fight against the fraud. He was the only member of either house,
besides the Black Caucus, who made a challenge (of sorts) to the electors on
January 6th. Well, he showed
his true colors. The only reason he did
any of that was for the media coverage of his mug! He just wanted to get on t.v. for more votes. Perhaps he’s thinking of the Senate or
Governorship. Well let me tell you I
wouldn’t vote for this man again if he were running for cabin boy. He ran unopposed in the last 2
elections. Well, not in the next
one. If I have to run against him
myself I will!
I read in the Miami Herald (so it has to be true!) the other day that
Deutsch was given a fundraiser by 3 Republicans – one raised tons of money for
the George Bush and Bill McCollum, one
worked as and aid to Reagan and the other was the head of a conservative
lobbying group behind Reagan. They
raised $25,000 for him. The quote was “`There's probably no one in America that he hasn't asked for
money,'' joked Deutsch's friend, SunCruz lobbyist Bernie Friedman.” Hmm, suspicious. http://www.miami.com/herald/content/news/local/columnists/reinhard/digdocs/047737.htm
My
father wanted to get the Medal of Honor for his deceased Uncle who was a war
hero. He went to our Congressman
Deutsch. It couldn’t be done. A well-connected friend of my Dad’s who knew
Deutsch said you have to give him a $1000.
You’ll get it then. Thankfully,
my father didn’t stoop that low.
Even
hearing these stories I still had some faith in our Congressman. That is until I heard him “hem and haw” and
skirt the real issues I brought before him.
Oh
and did I mention, I got it all on videotape!
I got Peter Deutsch calling George Bush “Legitimate” on tape! He wants
us to drink the Bushit of raw sewage Jeb wants to put in our water and the
arsenic that George wants to put in our water.
We should all take a glass of this fine brown Bushit. Let’s all toast!
If
you would rather have something cleaner and clearer take a stand with me
against any of these phony Democrats who don’t care about us. Anyone who won’t take a stand against the
Bushit is not our friend. Don’t think
you have a friend with these people. If
they won’t stand up for our rights then they cannot be trusted. I will be challenging Mr. Deutsch every
chance I can this week and I ask you to join me. We need to take back our party and our country!
