Leslie Osborn Calls For Primary Challenges Against All Fiscal Conservatives In House.

2/12/2018

 

While debating in favor of the largest tax increase in state history, Rep. Leslie Osborn called the fiscal conservatives; "the Swamp" & said; "We need to drain this swamp of those who will not move the state forward."

Picture
  As the House drags on their failed 12 month effort to fund this year's budget and begin next years appropriations, former Budget Committee Chair, Rep. Leslie Osborn started getting ugly in her floor debate rhetoric. She said that just as President Trump is committed to draining the swamp in Washington, House leaders need to recruit primary opponents against those who don't go along with her massive new taxes.
  Never mind that Trump is battling the bloat and cronyism of the federal govt.; Osborn is seeking to expand that massive and corrupt bloat in Oklahoma. If lawmakers don't vote like her, she openly threatens to raise up challengers against them in the upcoming summer primary elections, followed by general elections in November.
  Is Osborn's 'over the top' hostility anything new? For most lawmakers it is classless and demeaning of the honor of the office and the chamber. But even that standard has been brought much lower during her time in the State House.
  As a divorced woman she often lectures the deliberative body on how to have a harmonious marriage, even as she admits her own failures in this area of her life.
​  HB1033xx is now 13 votes short of passage, tonight. the Speaker is leaving the roll open for several hours, even as he so far is failing to deliver 75% of his own Republican caucus, in support of massive new taxes.

  I've loaded the video from the House archives, but some browsers will not load it in this site.  Osborn's comments start at 3:49:45 . The video can be found at : https://goo.gl/d9Gc3h.

    ​"No politician 'checks off every box" in your list of issues. You have to prioritize and use personal discretion regarding every current and future issue that you can imagine. Then you have to also judge integrity & consistency. A candidate's openness to study the issues & courage to think for themselves. Then you need to review their honesty & work ethic.  I respect any voter's decision, when they've informed themselves and took voting seriously." - David Van Risseghem

 SoonerPolitics.org is committed to informing & mobilizing conservative Oklahomans for civic reform & restored liberty. We seeks to utilize the efforts of all cooperative facets of the Conservative movement... Content of the diverse columns are solely at the discretion of the dozens of websites who create the content.   David Van Risseghem  is the founder of this platform.
 Sooner Politics News is a platform, not a media site. All our bloggers get their feeds promoted regardless of content. As soon as We suppress or delete even one posting, we become an endorser of whatever We didn't censor..The publisher doesn't (and could not) logically agree with all the content, so we would not expect any rational reader to agree, either. What we do hope, is that readers will think for themselves, and at least be better informed of the issues, events, and values that our citizen journalists work hard to provide for free.. We automate much of the tasks so that our sources' content gets as much exposure as possible. We encourage constructive discussion & debate. The solution is more free speech, not less.​
