John Tierney thinks Kaepernick better QB than Brady?!
Obviously Colin Kaepernick doesn’t hold a candle to Tom Brady, but one has to wonder if Pelosi Puppet John Tierney would bet his money on Pelosi’s favorite QB if the two met in the Super Bowl.
After all, Tierney doesn’t seem to be able to change the channel on his TV without getting Pelosi’s permission first. Take the latest example – Tierney just voted against the Exchange Information Disclosure Act, which provides transparent and accessible ObamaCare enrollment data and reporting on ObamaCare website status. Once again, Tierney voted against a bill with significant bipartisan support.
Here are a few more bills where he dug his heels in and voted against bipartisan compromise:
- Voted against research funding aimed at curing childhood diseases such as autism and childhood cancer. Voted to fund political conventions over funding research for childhood diseases. Voted against ending taxpayer funding for presidential nominating conventions, and instead channeling it toward the elimination of devastating diseases for children. (Roll Call #632, 12/11/2013)
- Voted against allowing people to keep their current health insurance plan. (Roll Call #587, 11/15/13)
- Voted against the Senate-House compromise to keep student loan rates low (Roll Call #426, 7/31/13)
- Voted for the Grijalva Budget, which could cost Massachusetts over 200,000 jobs and devastate workers 401(k) plans and pensions. (Roll Call#85, 3/20/13). For more on Tierney’s anti-middle class budget vote see recent profiles in the National Review and the Boston Herald.
NRCC Comment: “With yet another vote against a bipartisan bill, John Tierney continues to personify everything that is wrong with Washington – gridlock, partisanship, and unwillingness to put Massachusetts families ahead of Nancy Pelosi’s agenda. Tierney may enjoy his time playing partisan politics while riding the backbench in Congress, but Massachusetts deserves someone that can actually deliver results.” – NRCC Spokesman Ian Prior
