WE LOST OUR AREA'S KOMODO DRAGON, BUT WE ARE WITNESSING A POLITICAL CHAMELEON IN ACTION

Politicos are akin to a chameleon - flaunt your color which suites ... 
We are highly amused at the Altmire campaign's ad which claims the Lobbyist has stood up to the Tea Party.  Altmire's unprincipled grand-standing has been the greatest inspiration in the Democratic Caucus for the Tea Party.  We are asking our readers to close their eyes. Open them and Lobbyist Altmire will be whatever you want him to be.  In 2006 and 2008, he could be a San Francisco liberal touting universal health care.  In 2010, he lectures our President on the need to cut health care costs further, as he plays the Health Care expert.  In 2012,  after Lobbyist Altmire remains willing to sacrifice Medicare at the expense of area Seniors, after strong rumors of being in hot and heavy negotiations with the NRCC, and finally after being a reliable  Fox News Contributor, Altmire claims he stands up against his Tea Party friends of 2010.  The Pittsburgh Zoo may have lost our beloved Komodo Dragon, but we are witnessing a human Chameleon right before our very eyes.

LOBBYIST ALTMIRE: TAKE THE SAVE WESTERN PA MIDDLE CLASS PLEDGE TO REMAIN A DEMOCRAT!!!

Our disgruntled Altmire staffer, has alerted us to a new  cynical WITCHES BREW  that is being concocted by the Altmire campaign, the PAGOP and the NRCC.  The Republican power brokers are going to covertly throw their full weight behind the Lobbyist and his failed campaign.  They will all let  the principled hard-working and apparently straight-shooting GOP candidate, Keith Rothfus,  go elaborately through the motions of a real  campaign.  If Altmire prevails,  he will miraculously and  out of the deepest reaches of his conscience, change parties and caucus with Boehner or whomever pretends to be leader of the GOP caucus at that time, before the next Congress convenes.  Lobbyist Altmire we need to protect the Western PA Middle Class from your worst survival at all costs  instincts.  Please take the pledge that win or lose, Lobbyist Altmire, you sincerely  vow never to switch parties  and pledge never to be tomorrow's  Democratic version of Arlen Specter.  

LOBBYIST ALTMIRE'S RED-FACED VICTORY RANT IN THE FULL AND UNCENSORED VERSION!!!

ALTMIRE REMAINS ON BALLOT: DOES IT MATTER?

It is our contention that the Altmire campaign, however well-funded it is, is in ruins.  We are not convinced Altmire is electable in the Fall.  After losing  Allegheny's Labor Council vote,  it is apparent that labor  support, even in Altmire's backyard, for Big Healthcare Lobbyist Altmire is rather lukewarm.  We believe his votes in favor of the healthcare status quo and the millions of dollars that Big Healthcare has lavished on Mr. Altmire will continue to haunt him. Finally, the Lobbyist can talk proms all he wants.  It was not the job of the Critz or Rothfus campaigns to gather his petitions.  His campaign remains poorly run. His red-faced rants don't endear him with either the public or his staff.

LOBBYIST ALTMIRE: YOU'VE BEEN WELL REWARDED FOR YOUR SERVICES!! OPEN SECRETS TELLS IT ALL! AMONG ALTMIRE'S TOP 5 INDUSTRY GROUP CONTRIBUTORS INCLUDES HOSPITALS/NURSING HOMES, PHARMA, AND HEALTH PROFESSIONALS. WHERE ARE OUR REGION'S MIDDLE CLASS??

Open Secrets - Jason Altmire

WHO WILL BE SACRIFICED IN ALTMIRECARE: MIDDLE CLASS RECIPIENTS OF MEDICARE OR LOBBYIST ALTMIRE'S SPECIAL INTEREST CLIENTS?

LOBBYIST ALTMIRE  faces a fundamental contradiction.   He voted against Obamacare because it did not cut health care costs deeply enough to suit him or so was reported by the Washington Post.   But if health care costs get contained his clients  (see Lobbyist Altmire's Opensecrets donorreports) the large hospital systems, big Pharma and medical insurance systems lose.  So either the Lobbyist is a steadfast proponent of the status quo which is bankrupting our nation and hurting small business or Altmirecare will have to aim its focus on you the Middle Class and your benefits.   From past history, we believe that Altmire will stick by his clients.

ON THE FIRST SUNDAY OF LENT, WE OFFER THE FOLLOWING EVENING PRAYER FOR LOBBYIST JASON ALTMIRE

One of our citizen journalists attended Mass today.  One of the Offertory intentions was: " Lord,  please provide all with health care."  In this same spirit we pray:  "Lobbyist Altmire leave behind the indifference of your K Street lobbyist princes and may the almighty Lord and Master open your heart to those Western PA citizens, who suffer with no coverage waiting  for Universal Healthcare to commence.  May the Lord grant you the wisdom to know what is right for Western PA and not the Health Care Insurance Lobby!:   AMEN and Have a Blessed Lent!

WILL LOBBYIST JASON ALTMIRE LEAD THE WAY IN DISMANTLING OBAMACARE? DOES LOBBYIST ALTMIRE HAVE A HEALTHCARE PLAN FOR THIS REGION AND OUR NATION

Lobbyist Jason Altmire is viewed as the go to guy for health care special interests?    He made an extreme amount of noise and campaign cash by voting against OBAMACARE.  So we are waiting for ALTMIRECARE.   Appearing on Fox News is not fixing our healthcare system-it is not a plan.

LOBBYIST ALTMIRE: LET'S TALK HEALTHCARE! WE ENCOURAGE THE ELITE MEDIA TO RE-VISIT ALTMIRE'S VOTE AGAINST UNIVERSAL HEALTHCARE AND TO EXAMINE WHAT THE LOBBYIST HAS DONE SINCE 2009 TO IMPROVE OUR NATION'S AND OUR REGION'S HEALTHCARE!

We are citizen journalists. We think Lobbyist Altmire's vote against universal health care has done more for his campaign chest and visits to Fox News than improving our region's Health Care delivery system. We did not attend the Columbia School of Journalism. We are simple people from Western Pennsylvania. We encourage the New York Times, The Huffington Post and the Washington Post to take a look at this K Street Prince and see what he has contributed to improving Western Pa's Health Care system. Elite media, you have the resources to unearth the real Lobbyist Altmire. We have one important question for Lobbyist Altmire: do you support the Pipes Healthcare plan?? 

BYE BYE ALIQUIPPA: BEAVER COUNTY DEMS WE DON'T BLAME YOU FOR BEING FOOLED BY LOBBYIST ALTMIRE; SO WAS JACK SHEA AND THE PITTSBURGH LABOR COUNCIL!!!

An extremely credible source who heard Altmire's Westmoreland spellbinder today,  told us that this morning the Lobbyist promised, if elected of course,  to move his HQ office to Westmoreland County.  This makes perfect sense to us as there is more wealth in Westmoreland and the constituents of Westmoreland County  there can do far more  for Lobbyist Altmire than those of Beaver County.  We find Lobbyist Altmire's abandonment of Beaver despicable.  These hard-working trusting folks are the same voters who enabled the Lobbyist to burrow from K Street to the floor of the US House. I am sure Beaver County Dems you've learned the same lesson that Jack Shea learned the very hard way:  Never trust a K Street lobbyist!

SANTORUM SAYS IT TAKES A FAMILY; LOBBYIST ALTMIRE TELLS WESTMORELAND DEMS THAT IT TAKES A REPUBLICAN!

IWestmoreland County, Lobbyist Altmire   delivered another spellbinder today.  We believe that his central message is that only a Republican can win the PA 12th and he is more than willing to play that role.  We continue to have doubts about the electability of  Lobbyist ALTMIRE.   We have heard rumors, as we previously reported, that  he was in negotiations to switch parties and caucus with Speaker Boehner.  Frankly,   we would like the Lobbyist to be more honest with us voters and the Western PA Middle Class:  is he for himself and solely for his political survival , the health care lobby, or for we the suffering Middle Class of Western PA??

GOOD NEWS FOR LOBBYIST ALTMIRE! HE'S BEEN INVITED TO SIT AT THE FOX NEWS TABLE FOR THE WHITE HOUSE CORRESPONDENTS DINNER

Our disgruntled Altmire staffer just informed us that Altmire is considering accepting Fox News's invitation to be at this prestigious event, which will be hosted by funny man Jimmy Kimmel.  The disgruntled staffer wishes that the Lobbyist would spend more time worrying about his campaign and his constituents.  

COACH BOBBY BOWDEN: WE FIND NO CONFIRMING EVIDENCE THAT LOBBYIST JASON ALTMIRE WAS A RUDY ON ONE OF YOUR GREAT 80'S TEAMS? CAN YOU CONFIRM THE LOBBYIST'S HEROIC FEATS ON THE GRIDIRON?

Honestly, we do not care about Altmire's ability to be a tackling dummy in some Tallahassee Oklahoma drill.  The Western Pa Middle Class is more interested in seeing  Lobbyist Altmire's client list.  We want to see who the Lobbyist represented before he entered the reverse  revolving door of government service: from the Capitol Grille, Beltway Lobbyists favorite watering hole to Murtha's Pennsylvania Corner. 

OUR EDITORIAL STAFF IS WAGERING ON WHO WILL REPRESENT LOBBYIST ALTMIRE IN HIS PETITION CHALLENGE HEARING?

Odds are 4:1 that it will be Robert S. Bennett who represented William Jefferson Clinton in the  Lewinsky fellatio perjury trails and 8:1 that his attorney will be Ted Olson who represented W in Gore v. Bush.  Lobbyist Altmire has a 2:1 fundraising lead so nothing but the Beltway best for Lobbyist Altmire when it comes to legal representation.  Our blog just wants the Lobbyist Altmire to define what betrayal of the Middle Class means!
