Huey Lewis — err, Mike Evans — calls for Pelosi’s resignation
May 21, 2009 at 10:44 am by Thomas Wheatley in News
Georgia Republican Congressional candidate Mike Evans — who knew? — has joined The World’s Greatest Catholic Newt Gingrich in calling for U.S. Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi to resign over her comments about torture. STEP DOWN, MS. SPEAKER!
Evans, who wants to succeed gubernatorial candidate Nathan Deal in Congress, said in an unexpected and rather hilarious press release:
“It’s unbelievable that a leader trusted with so much power would attack the integrity of the Intelligence community for petty political posturing. Someone this irresponsible does not deserve to serve in a role that makes her second in line to the Presidency.
The person who’s first in line, however? Badass. Evans continues:
“If the voters of north Georgia trust me to be their voice in Congress, I will not sit idly by while radical liberals endanger our country and our families to cover up their hypocrisy.”
Evans is a former State Transportation Board chairman. He resigned from that post after he and Gena Abraham, then-state Department of Transportation commissioner, disclosed they had fallen in love. They later married and now reside in Forsyth County. Prior to Evans’ service on the transportation board, he served four terms as a state representative.

On the road of life, the Evans’s love is like a public-private partnership, right down to the toll that never really goes away.

Old Russian saying…You can tell same lie 1000 time(Ms Pelosi) but not change truth!
Difference between USSR Communist media and USA “mainstream media”
In Russia government make media say what they want – even if lie.
In USA “mainstream media” try make government what they want – even if lie..
…..eventually they become same thing?!

The “who knew?” in the first sentence cracked me up. True, so true.
What I’m still trying to track down is that RNC talking points memo titled “Relevancy In The New Media Age”, and distributed to Red State pol-wannabees with wavy hairdos by dopes (or friends of Erick Erickson) with an Arlington, VA “media relations” company, that reads…
“ITEM #1: best way to get media/constituency attention without having to actually DO anything of sustainable value for the people you claim you want to represent – sling some Pelosi mud every morning with your Starbucks and Bran Flakes. Make sure Newt hears you.”
