Soon to be ex-Sen. Murkowski warns Alaska TV stations not to air Tea Party ads

Like many spoiled little children, they don’t take well to being told “NO!”. Soon to be ex-Senator Lisa Murkowski (RINO-Alaska), is much like those spoiled little children, albeit a 53 year old one.

Memo to Murkowski: YOU LOST! Now get over it, and get out of the way!

She seems to think, like most elitist RINO’s, that she’s entitled to the Senate seat she inherited from Daddy Murkowski back in 2002 (when he became Governor), even if the voters of Alaska beg to differ.

Yes, she was re-elected and won the seat in 2004 on, ahem, “her own” (there was no riding Daddy’s coattails, so don’t even think that!).

But lo and behold, it seems that after six years of doing what was best for her, rather than for the people of Alaska, who, you know, elected her, the GOP voters decided to “throw the bum out”, so to speak.

Only problem with that is when “the bum” is a spoiled little child who throws a temper tantrum and refuses to be a good loser, do what’s best for the GOP and the citizens of Alaska, take the defeat as being the will of the people, congratulate the victor, and help get him elected in four weeks.

Of course, this type of civilized behavior is obviously not a part of Murkowski’s core values. Her preferred method is to attempt to bully her way to getting back what she obviously believes she’s rightfully entitled to.

Murkowski actually had one of her ambulance-chasing lawyers send a letter to local TV stations, warning them that they should not run ads from Tea Party groups who support the people’s choice for Senate, Joe Miller, saying they are under a “legal and moral obligation” not to air the new ads from Tea Party Express, which is supporting Miller, the political upstart who defeated Murkowski in the August GOP primary.

I guess to bitter losers like Lisa Murkowski, freedom of speech only applies if you like what’s being said. There’s another group of losers in America that feel the same way. They’re called LIBERALS. Don’t go away mad Lisa, just go away. Become a Dimocrat, since you act and think like one.

Sen. Murkowski Asks Alaska Stations Not to Air Tea Party Ads

JUNEAU, Alaska — U.S. Sen. Lisa Murkowski’s campaign is warning Alaska broadcasters not to air ads by a national tea party group that the campaign says are “littered with lies and intentional mischaracterizations” about her and her write-in campaign.

Attorney
Timothy McKeever, in a letter to broadcasters Monday, said they are under a “legal and moral obligation” not to air the new ads from Tea Party Express, which is supporting Joe Miller, the political upstart who defeated Murkowski in the August GOP primary.

A Tea Party Express spokesman said his initial reaction is that the group stands behind the ads.

At issue is an ad the group unveiled Monday, entitled “Arrogant Lisa Murkowski — You Lost!” It seeks to paint Murkowski as more interested in political self-preservation than in serving the interests of Alaskans. It also claims she didn’t “earn” her Senate seat and that she “tried to manipulate the Libertarian party into giving her their slot” on the ballot — claims McKeever called “materially false.”

Murkowski was appointed to the seat her father held when he became governor in 2002; she won it in her own right in 2004.
