Truckers' Trucking Forum/Message Board - The Premiere Truck Driver Forum

Politics Do Not Pass/Pass With Care. Today's truckers are far more educated and cognizant of the issues regarding politics due to the sharp increase in talk radio, and various trucking news media sources. Talk politics. Do truckers like politicians?

Another Question Planted By Team Hillary

Note that this is a different situation from the first one, and recall if you will that her campaign said that they would not be doing this any more. I guess they mean that they won't be getting caught at it anymore. LOL!


In a telephone interview with Fox, Geoffrey Mitchell, 32, says he was approached by an operative for the Clinton campaign to ask a planted question about standing up to President Bush on Iraq war funding. The encounter happened before an event on a farm outside Fort Madison, Iowa. The Clinton event was hosted by Iowa State Sen. Gene Fraise.

Mitchell tells Fox that Clinton campaign worker Chris Hayler approached him and asked him to ask Sen. Clinton a question about how she was standing up to President Bush on the question of funding the Iraq war and a troop withdrawal timeline.

Mitchell told Fox the Clinton campaign wanted to contrast Clinton to Sen Barack Obama, who had recently said the president would probably prevail in the Iraq funding battle with Congress.

Mitchell said he refused to ask the question.

Burky,

This has already been posted by Ronno. I didn't know if you saw it or not. Just thought I would let you know.

Yep! This one was at a farm in Fort Madison, the other was at a school in Grinnell. I'm thinking there was one at an ethanol plant as well, which would make three, but I'd have to look for that one.

Merely reporting the news. I leave others to debate it for endless hours. I thought it a bit humorous that barely hours after they promised not to do it any more, they do it again.
