Battle Of The Bobs; Menendez Loving Hypocrites Still Silent

It can be difficult to come up with something to write about when the news is slow. Fortunately, New Jersey’s U.S. Senate race the, “Battle of the Bobs,” looks like it’s going to continue to provide opportunities to opine.

Somehow, we missed the fact that yesterday the NJGOP took a shot at a group of State Senators who had joined the ranks of the original 88 Menendez Loving Hypocrites who apparently don’t care that Bob Menendez worked hard to bring a dirty old man’s young girlfriends into the country.

The Party’s statement on the matter came from its Executive Director, Theresa Winegar.

Winegar’s poke at the group of Democratic State Senators:

“It’s been a week since Senators Cunningham, Weinberg, Ruiz and Pou have recoiled into the shelter of their golden dome after being pressed on Senator Menendez’s offensive history with women. New Jersey’s voters deserve a clear position from them on his record of using his official office to import and exploit young foreign women for his married criminal donor and friend Soliman Melgen. A bi-partisan panel of U.S. Senators recognized Menendez’s abuse of power, but it seems the female delegation of Democrats in New Jersey’s Senate find his behavior to be totally acceptable.”

It must have been a good shot because when the Menendez campaign was contacted by one of the state’s political news websites, New Jersey Globe, Menendez campaign spokesman Steve Sandberg responded with the usual Trump sucks Democratic talking points and how much money Bob Hugin contributed to the presidential campaign, the RNC and such. In other words, Winegar left Sandberg as speechless as the Menedez Loving Hypocrites.

After the latest round of the Battle of the Bobs the count of silent Menendez Loving Hypocrites is 88 women who signed a ridiculous letter and four state senators for a total of 92.

It looks like the NJGOP won this round, so we’ll sit back and watch and see if we can get to 100 Menendez Loving Hypocrites.

Does Cory Booker Believe The Words That Come Out Of His Mouth?

Back on July 12 RealClearPolitics did a piece (with video) titled, “Booker: ‘We Need To Stop The Bullsh*t Partisanship In This Country.’”

The video posted on RealClearPolitics opens with Cory Booker saying, “I’ve got a degree in Sociology, a degree in History, a degree in Political Science, a degree in History, the only thing I’m qualified to do in the 21st century economy is be United States Senator.”

Shortly after that U.S. Senator Cory Booker, a darling of the “resist” movement, used the word “bullshit.”

I’m no stranger to a bad word every now and then, so my objection isn’t to Booker’s use of the word. My objection is to the quote. Booker said, “We need to stop the bullshit partisanship in this country.”

Cory Booker is the last person in the State of New Jersey to lecture anyone on partisanship.

According to ProgressivePunch Cory Booker has an overall progressive score of 97.86%, higher than Bernie Sanders.

According to FiveThirtyEight Booker votes in line with President Trump’s position 11.8% of the time, only three senators scored worse. Even Chuck Schumer votes in line with President Trump’s position 25% of the time.

Simply looking at his voting record it is clear Cory Booker is a partisan hack. So, next time you hear Booker speak out against partisanship, watch out for the bullshit.

88 Women Had A Lot To Say About Eating Clubs And Not A Word About Soccer

Governor Phil Murphy

Remember those 88 women who signed a letter bashing GOP senatorial candidate Bob Hugin? Or when State Senator Loretta Weinberg joined the Menendez Loving Hypocrites and issued a statement bashing Hugin?

Every single one of them has remained silent as we learn the saga of the professional women’s soccer club Governor Phil Murphy happens to be the majority owner of, Sky Blue FC.

Even the far left ThinkProgress gave Gov. Murphy a well-written beating over the way the team is treated by the owners. It says a lot when an organization that describes itself, in part, as, “a news site dedicated to providing our readers with rigorous reporting and analysis from a progressive perspective” is willing to be so hard on the progressive New Jersey Governor.

The ThinkProgress article goes so far as to say, “the living and playing conditions Sky Blue FC players have faced are nothing short of deplorable.”

Deplorable! That’s the word the 88 women, 89 counting Weinberg, use for those of us who support our president!

Still not a peep from those 89 women.

According to several reports teams are required to provide housing for the players and, “one of the houses that players had to live in just should have been knocked down. Plastic bags for windows, sheets of cardboard for windows, comforters stuck in holes in the wall.”

Still not a word from those 89 women.

The ThinkProgress article continues, “While some players dealt with makeshift windows, others were forced to couch surf with roommates during the season because of a lack of provided housing. The unluckiest, though, were forced to ‘live with an elderly man who repeatedly made inappropriate comments to the players and made them feel uncomfortable.’”

They were forced to live with an elderly man who repeatedly made inappropriate comments and still not a word from those 89 women.

We also learned from reports that “Suburban recreation leagues for 8-year-olds have better accommodations” when it comes to the professional team’s practice facilities, no locker rooms, bathrooms or showers. Apparently, the team responded to those allegations by renting an RV and parking it on the field.

Again, silence from those 89 women.

When an organization like ThinkProgress completely trashes a progressive Democrat governor saying, “No matter how successful you are, there’s always going to be a powerful man in your vicinity who will boast about his feminist values while treating you like a second-class citizen,” there is something seriously wrong.

Even worse, is 88 women who signed a letter attacking Bob Hugin for something nearly 30 years old and another piles on a day or two later to score cheap political points and then say not one word about one of their fellow Democrats who treats professional women athletes like dirt.

For these women to first, stand with Bob Menendez who helped get his buddy’s young girlfriends into the country and second, sit silently as the world learns of the way Phil Murphy allows the women on his soccer team to be treated is hypocritical.

There are at least 89 women in New Jersey who should be ashamed of themselves every day they remain silent about the treatment of the women on the Sky Blue FC.
