This is a great example of what I personally find offensive from Sal Pace. I have yet to read a press coverage on him that does not include 'flamers'.
That tendency could be chalked up to just political stumping if it was not, whenever he is called on the lack of fact, foundation or simply that his statement is disingenuous, if he didn't immediately reverse himself each time and slip-slide away in the other direction.
Just say YES to Congressman Scott Tipton (R-Colorado).
Patrick Malone:
Tipton also said his pledge against funding projects specific to his district, shared by many in Congress, is an obstacle to the project.
“We have a rule in the House of Representatives for no earmarks,” he said.
Tipton explained that any project that stands alone is an earmark, but those that can be conducted nationwide are not.
“The definition of an earmark is one specific locale,” he said. “It has to be available across the nation, so that you’ve got to have an instance of more than one.”
The asbestos project in Pueblo undoubtedly would be an earmark, Tipton said.
Pace said he doesn’t care how the demolition gets done, as long as it does.
“I think the feds and the state are both to blame,” he said. “We should quit trying to pass the buck and we should all put aside our bickering and figure out a way to get it done. I don’t care if the state does it or the feds do it.
“If the feds do it and Scott Tipton takes the lead, I’m personally going to give him credit, because it’s not about who gets credit. It’s about making sure that kids in Pueblo aren’t breathing air laden with asbestos.”..." (Read more? Click title)
