GOP Pol: Rep. Jean Schmidt Is A "Lying B----"

Every now and then we like to check in on the latest antics surrounding GOP Rep. Jean Schmidt -- the Ohio Republican who called Jack Murtha a coward on the House floor. And boy oh boy, her latest doesn't disappoint.

Schmidt is now enmeshed in a bitter feud with another Ohio Republican, who's so furious with her that he called her a "lying b----" and a "despicable person" who would "sell her mother" -- and expressly told us we could print that!

The issue? GOP State Rep. Tom Brinkman, who founded an anti-tax government watchdog group, is charging that Schmidt's House staffers frequently work on her campaign for re-election.

"You can quote me anywhere you like. Jean Schmidt is a lying b----," said Brinkman, who lost his primary challenge to her this year by a 58%-40% margin, in an interview with Election Central. "She would sell her mother to promote herself. She is a despicable person. She will go any length possible to win, to get what she wants."

Yikes!

In turn, Schmidt communications director Bruce Pfaff had some very strong words for Brinkman: "Mr. Brinkman is a person that the Congresswoman has beaten twice. He has never conceded or acknowledged her win. He is a bitter, angry man."

Brinkman's group has released a letter charging that Schmidt's House staffers frequently engage in campaign activities directly from her offices, on the taxpayer's dime. Pfaff strongly differs: House rules do allow staffers to volunteer their time for the campaigns when they're away from the office, Pfaff explained, and they can speak to the press on some political matters if it was the reporter who called first.

Brinkman also charged that Schmidt's staffers are paid more than the staffers for Rep. Steve Chabot, another area Republican, which he said was compensation for their untraceable "volunteer" campaign work. Pfaff replied that the staffers' pay is in line with others after it's factored in that Chabot's staffers are on two separate payrolls -- Chabot's office and his committee where he's a ranking member -- while Schmidt's are just on one payroll.

"He makes baseless accusations like the horrible personal one he made to you, and he doesn't understand how the Congress works," Pfaff said.

Great News for the GOP! (garbage of pricks)

I would love to see her lose! She is one of those idiots that roam the halls of congress!

She'll be gone in January.

But if she is gone . . . The bat-shit crazy wing of the Republicant Party will be tragically less entertaining.

So Jean is stupid AND mean.

Color me stunned.

It's pretty hilarious that Brinkman went on record like that!

FOX NEWS POLL:

Do you or any of your neighbors believe that Jean Schmidt is a lying bitch?

The look in her eyes reminds me of the crazed look in the eyes of that run away bride.

I was thinking more of the poop-driving astronaut. The Runaway bride was more frantic.

She looks like a man.

An extremely ugly one.

She looks like Olive Oyl.

Donate to Victoria Wulsin, who damned near beat this bitch last time, and is taking another run at her.
Met her at a club dinner out in LA two weeks ago. I'm sending money.

I donated to Dr. Wulsin several times in 2006, and I wholly support her again in 2008.

This is one of the good ones, people.

(Not like some of the DINOs I donated to in 2006.)

Calling your fellow Republican a lying b*tch is not all that unusual for the GOP. Some Republican presidential candidates, like John McCain, have actually called their wife, like Cindy McCain, a f*cking c*nt.

I wonder why the letter u doesn't show up in italics?

The letter "u" shows up fine in bold:

lying butch

(disclaimer: word play, not gender identity bashing)

Now all she needs to do is to say something deranged about BHO and the No Quarter crowd will hail her as the greatest statesman since Churchill.

Schmidt is exhibit #8934985320839285293048320919 as to why the Republican Party sucks, and why people who still support it are retards.

Careful! They're starting to eat their own!

Mean Jean continues to inspire love and admiration among her own. Gotta love it. I wish I had a pic of her in that flag-shirt she wore the day she called Murtha a coward. What is it with these Republicans? Is being Republican a mental illness? Should it merit its own ICD9 code?

'That is funny' :)

Wow, for the first time in years, I'm in total agreement with a Republican.

There's a developing McCain story tied to Brinkman, who's a hard-right OH state senator with a history of introducing anti-choice and anti-gay initiatives. A couple years ago, from the bench a local judge called him a "crook" for a mess involving bogus petition signatures.

Brinkman is also BFF with Jim Schifrin, a SW Ohio oddball who publishes The Whistleblower, a notorious tipsheet that regularly calls Cincinnati Mayor Mark Mallory "a gay darkie" and refers to the former Public Schools Superintendant as "mammy." Because he feeds tips to local reporters and pols, Schifrin has gotten with this kind for years.

Here's the beef. According to Schifrin, he has regular get-togethers with Joe Deters, the Hamilton County Prosecutor (R). Well, a couple weeks ago, Deters was named as McCain's SW Ohio chair. When the NAACP convention was in town about a week ago, Schifrin wrote that he and Deters had lunch and the two traded racist Obama jokes - the day before McCain's NAACP speech.

The story has been bubbling courtesy of The Cincinnati Beacon blog and yesterday it made the local newsweekly:

http://citybeat.com/gyrobase/Content?oid=oid%3A145683
McCain's Inaction Speaks Louder Than Words by Kevin Osborne, Cincinnati CityBeat, 7/23/2008

More here, including a video of Deters refusing to denounce the racist newsletter + two goons stepping in to block the camera: http://tinyurl.com/5bds7z

Pass it on, people. If McCain is forced to throw Deters overboard, that could be national news and the racist Jim Schifrin will be left in the toity blowing his own whistle.

Deters resigned in disgrace as Ohio Treasurer. It was just typical Republican influence peddling. If the nation still had laws the guy would be in jail.

Instead the Republican cultists in Hamilton county elected him prosecutor.

Also, if there were journalists McCain would stink from Deters' corruption shit as well as this racist revelation. Nothing will come of it, however.

And on the subject of candidates, please check this out, an issue near and dear to my heart, and I am sure all of yours. :)

What if she was McCain's running mate, these two tempermental individuals would kill each other.

Won't happen. Fortunately for McCain, the GOP is rife with shameless self-serving psychotics to choose from. The hard part is finding one that makes him look better by comparison.

McSame used to have a hard burnished maverick image.

Remember when he was against torture?

But then he voted for it.

To hell with him.

Jean Schmidt is the ugly American. I don't think her IQ could warm a room.

Thanks for your good work fredf3891, Ohio needs a good republicenema.


"Jean Schmidt is a lying b----"
"He is a bitter, angry man."

Mark the date. Two Republicans were correct and it didn't have anything to do with blind squirrels and nuts.

Good. Let's hope they keep it up. Controversy in Ohio amongstt the Republicans is good for our candidates up and down the ticket.

Wonder why she smoked her Dem. opponent? because he is just like the rest of the Dems! Tax and spend and then do nothing while we are in congress. There is one thing that these Dems do, point fingers and blame the other party for all the Dems. big mistakes!!. Look at the Dem. congress aproval rating " 9% " Once more the Dems. set another record. Do nothing and spend the hell out of taxpayers money. The Dems have done nothing about this energy crisis but say its too late and blame bush for it. while the Rep. are trying to get something done but cannot because the Dems dont want thst to happen!. Grow up. Jean nailed it on the head, who ever controls our oil controls our freedom. Wake up Dems it's time for you to getout!
