Sydney Hay is the real deal


Published on Sunday, October 19, 2008 5:14 PM MST

Editor:

The attack ads against Sydney Hay are an example of what is wrong in Washington. Funded by liberal Washington elites, they are designed to try to buy this congressional seat for a Nancy Pelosi liberal by lying about Sydney Hay.

The part that is most egregious to us here in Graham County is the ad that tries to make Hay into a toxic polluter because of her work to promote and defend our natural resource-based economy. Her work on behalf of our mining, ranching and agriculture jobs is well known and has earned her the endorsement of the Arizona Farm Bureau and several mining groups.

The ad that says she wants to raise taxes is another out-and-out lie. Hay is one of Arizona’s most well-known tax fighters who leads and has signed the Taxpayer Protection Pledge. The Social Security ad is rolled out every election year against conservatives in order to try to scare our seniors.

I have had a chance to get to know Hay, and she is the real-deal conservative and a fighter for the issues that I hold dear: pro-life, pro-traditional marriage, pro-family. She is a defender of our Second-Amendment rights.

We need to stand up against the onslaught of attack ads and elect Sydney Hay for Congress.

    " bwana, a flea pulled more active duty than W Bush - that certainly says little about you. Your arguments have reduced to puerile name-calling. I simply challenged any of the pseudo credentials you have presented in any of these blogs.

    and I doubt you know what "in theater" even means - but there are those of the long gray line who read these blogs and have served with honor - I just doubt you're among them. "

    " Here is Sydney Hay's bio page. http://sydneyhayforcongress.com/About_Sydney.aspx

    It was really hard to find, type "Sydney Hey" into Google.

    She wasn't born here in Arizona (Colorado) but she has lived here for almost thirty years. You can read the rest for yourself. "

    " I would like to hear a little about who is Sydney Hay where was she born, attended high school and college, where did she work before running for congress.
    News ads for Ann Kirkpatrick says she was reared in the White mountians. That is a start on is she a real Arizonaian.
    Is Sydney Hays like John McCain a carpetbagger coming her to just run for office, with big money behind her.
    Won't happen but I wish we had a law that said you must live in Arizona for at least 20 years before running for congess. "

    As for you...I suspect the only theater you served in was the Safford local...as a pimple faced usher with a bowtie and a flashlight. That's probably where you learned to imitate machismo...Watching too many John Wayne movies.

    As for tolerance, what would you know about that? I happen to be the most tolerant man here....But since you are one of the bullies, of which I have no tolerance, you feel persecuted by my stands. "

    " bwana... your thoughts as expressed through out the pages of these blogs on many different stories fully support your self-admission in your last posting that your're intolerant of any point of view differing from your own, or social standards that restrict your ability to "do your own thing"

    I doubt you ever owned any firearms and, I doubt you were ever in the military. And, if you were, your discharge is most likely less than honorable.

    Here's an assignment for you: Learn what a Straussian Neocon is (U of Chicago). "

    The answer....Yes, reluctantly. I'm not interested in taking on the SWAT team. Perhaps you are man enough to do it, but I have a feeling that discretion is the better part of valor.

    Thank you for your interest in the bwana. "

    As a Christian I know that the Lord does not consider taxation as charitable giving. What I give of my own free will is charitable giving and I have given happily. Please try and see the difference. Taxation is in no means charitable. "

    " Logic tells me to consider the most recent years when thinking of the direction our country has been going. The Dems have been in charge the last two. Our economy has weakened, they voted to cut off funding to our soldiers in the field, they are running an inexperienced, foreign born and questionable man for president. I am not a republican but I will vote that way. "

    I'm intolerant of mob rule.
    I guess I am intolerant of most of your tenets.

    Also, you seemed to indicate that you are willing to fight to preserve my right to speak freely, but I get the distinct impression you'd rather punch me in the mouth instead! ROFLMAO "

    " bwana, not sure what you're a "vet" of exactly and we won't speculate here.

    here's the word you all need to learn:
    TOLERANCE ... something you've shown very little of since blogging in these pages.

    Tolerance works when its TWO ways, when its your way or the highway (as you've demonstrated numerous times) your tolerance becomes one way - and then my misguided friend it becomes TYRANNY

    Oh, and "amazing" I never said what war I fought - btw, Bush is a neocon not a conservative. Learn something sometime. "

    " In Theater Vet, you pretty much sum up Bwanas argument. Warmongering fool. You actually think that this administration sent you to war in Iraq to protect our freedom! We should be in one place and one place only with the full might of our military, and that is Afghanistan. If you're in Iraq and proud that you're killing people, shame on you. "

    " I am a veteran too.
    But that is not what defines me.

    I feel sorry for people such as yourself who seem to have had your growth stunted by too much exposure to pro-military propaganda.

    You also have your definitions wrong...Liberals are commies, conservatives are fascists.

    You might want to research what intolerance and bigotry mean...Typically those are the traits associated with right wing fascists such as yourself. "

    " bwana, there are many things which make killing someone worth while... like a Vet who's killed people in some overseas crap-hole so stupid and ungrateful individuals such as yourself have the freedom to rip down everything good that gave you the life you enjoy today and the ability to open your stupid mouth.

    Maybe its because a Vet truly understands freedom, and someone like you only wants to stifle freedom with your intolerance and bigotry. Liberals are such fascists, but everyone will learn that sad fact IF they stupidly elect Barry O. "

    I used to feel the same way....Then one day the Sheriff came to take my guns away and I realized that being a gun owner was not worth killing someone over. Get real!
    Besides, the supreme court has already guaranteed your right to bear arms, so you can quit being so paranoid now.

    PS, I got my guns back...That makes me an armed liberal. "

    " Unless you make more than $250,000 a year you should not vote for any conservative republican. It amuses me how they take advantage of middle-class people with conservative type values. Do you not have any idea how bad they are screwing you over? To the goober with the small business, if you are one of the top 5 percent of Americans who make more than $250,000 per year, I think you can afford a 3 percent tax raise. Try raising four kids while making $30,000 a year than complain. To help others is the true Christian thing to do. "

    " Don't worry, Bwana. Sydney Hay doesn't want to take away women's rights, or start a holy war. But maybe if she gave some big Businesses a tax break they wouldn't HAVE to do Business overseas and those jobs could come back to the good ole U S Of A. I know if I weren't so overburdened by taxes I could create some more jobs and actually provide some better health insurance. Over taxing our small businesses is a huge mistake. Also, you just try taking my guns away. That will never be tolerated. "

    " If Ann Kirtpatrick gets to Washington word is she'll write legislation (requested by Governor Napolitano) that would close many of our recreational areas to summer time use (due to 'fire hazzard'). Ask the USFS, one of the sites to be included in this program could be Mt. Graham.

    She'll also move to increase taxes on mining companies. We can't afford this lying liberal!! "

    Pro Big business tax breaks, Pro holy war, anti woman's rights and homophobic...probably anti-catholic with neo-nazi ties too.

    If the conservatives keep running this country into the ground there will be no freedoms left for our children to exercise! There won't even be a middle class..just the haves and the have nots!

    Fortunately, Obama will be the next president so smart people can get the USA back on track. "
