Congressman Under Fire For Voicemail Message
Stark Responds To Constituent's Criticism Over Vote
SAN FRANCISCO -- U.S. Rep. Pete Stark was under fire for a startling voicemail message that he left for a constituent, NBC11 reported.
The message was a response to the man's criticism of the East Bay Congressman's stand on the Iraqi prison abuse scandal.
Staff Sgt. Dan Dow, who is a member of the National Guard, said he wrote a letter to Stark criticizing the legislator's recent vote against a resolution condemning the abuse of Iraqi prisoners.
"Your no vote on this resolution is a disgrace to the people of this district who have elected you," Dow wrote. "I urge you to stop your contemptuous display of bitter partisanship."
Within an hour of faxing the letter to Stark's office, Dow said there was a message on his cell phone from Stark himself.
"Dan, this is congressman Pete Stark," the message said. "I just got your fax, and you don't know what you're talking about.
"I doubt if you could spell half the words in the letter, and somebody wrote it for you," the message went on. "So I don't pay much attention to it. But I'll call you back later and let you tell me more about why you think you're such a great goddamn hero."
Dow, a law student, said he did write the letter himself.

People, let this be a lesson to you. Never ask a repugnant to do the right thing. Never ask him to make the decent and good decision. These concepts are alien to him and you will only be rebuked in the most insulting manner possible. THEN, when you challenge him on it, he runs away as you can see here.
I didn't even check to see if he was of the repugnant party but from his uncouth voicemail, I can tell he is one of the cult.

Colonel, the reason you are so hated on these boards is because of your name-calling and broad sweeping generalizations & declarations

Look, repugnant, I didn't CHECK any sources so therefore there was a chance I could've been wrong and I admitted as much you snivelling repugnant. ANd just like the knuckle-draggin repugnant you people are, you jump on me for the most minor infraction like a pack of wild monkeys!
JUST PAR FOR THE COURSE IN THE MUDPIT!

So you didn't check any source? You once again assume that all evil must come from Republicans, and that anyone who disagrees with you must also be a Republican. To bad you've had the chance to go back and edit your posts to try and mitigate your blunders.
