Sweet Home Alabama

Well – It seems that turn about is fair game these days …. And instead of a line jumper going from Republican to Democrat, we have a House member who is going from Democrat to Republican … but from what he said in his interview this morning on Fox News, I have to wonder why he was Democrat to begin with.

Rep. Parker Griffith from Alabama has switched sides and list the following as his reasons for doing so:

  • Didn't like the way Congressional Leadership was working
  • Didn't like the way the Executive Branch was working (that would be the White House)
  • Nation was losing 100-1000's of jobs a month
  • Cap & Trade (he called it a 'rabbit trail")
  • Health Care took precedence over job creation
  • Stimulus wasn't working, so they were going to make another stimulus
  • Moneys paid back to the government wasn't going to pay down debt, it was going to another stimulus package
  • Independent, Conservative Business man
  • Pro-life
  • Pro-Second Amendment (right to bare arms)
  • Party was taking a tilt too far laft

Now it has to be said that while his district tends to send Democrats to congress, they voted both times for GW Bush overwhelmingly …

NOTE: USA is only 5% of the world's population … interesting ….
