Wouldn't it be prudent to try to document what was said when some nutballs barged into your office, to avoid false claims?

Laura, is that you? Go away.

BTW, the "nutballs" were respected leaders of 5 pro-family, pro-life organizations.

So let me get this straight.

In your first article, you said Brownback did commit to reconsider should Kline get in the race.

In your second article, you said Brownback did commit.

Doesn't this clearly show that your sources are either lying to you or making stuff up?

But the point remains: Phil Kline isn't in the race. Why not?

Instead of focusing your efforts to tear down our pro-life leader in Washington, maybe you should give Kline a call and ask him why he continues to tell everyone he isn't running.

Correction: I meant to say that you said in your first article that Brownback would NOT commit to reconsidering, and in your second article you are saying he did.

Shoddy journalism. You need to get facts straight before writing about them, or you lose all credibility.

Why are you so against Brownback? Last time you wrote about him it was because you didn't like the fact that he said he was against abortion in cases of rape because his answer wasn't good enough for you.

What is exactly good enough for you? Oh yeah, you want Brownback to endorse someone thats not even running and tells everyone he's not running.

I have to admit that you sat the presidential race out and refused to endorse anyone because no pro-life politicians are ever good enough for you, even Brownback.

Why don't you run, Jill?

Would you support yourself?

"Kline was appointed to the D.A.'s office and has said he will not run for another term."

"Last September, Kline issued a statement saying he would not run for re-election in 2008 because his heart was now in speaking, teaching and writing."

You have no concern for these revelations?

Angie, if an April 25 MSM source that Kline "has said" he wouldn't run to retain the seat is enough for you, so be it. Ask Brownback if he got calls urging him not to endorse. Ask Brownback if knew before the endorsement there was a chance Kline might run.

Angie, re: my 1st and 2nd quotes, perhaps the 1st quote was poorly written. I knew then what I wrote today. I wrote, "They asked him to reconsider his endorsement if Kline gets in the race. He did not commit."

I meant to say he wouldn't commit to endorsing, not reconsidering.

why do people still bother to be surprised/get upset when politicians get caught doing sneaky slimy things, when 99.9% of them are sneaky and slimy people?

I read a very interesting article a year or so ago that I have been looking for online with no success - but it was basically about how all of these big-name people involved in the abortion debate (like Brownback, Kline, and Cecile Richards) actually wouldn't want to see anything change, for the better or for the worse, because they're all making so much profit from the adversity.

This is why, despite all of the yapping and fighting, pushing and pulling, pretty much nothing has changed. It's the people who don't have any means of gaining profit from political agendas that actually CARE about this cause, rather than what they can get out of it, either way.

Curtains for Brownback.

Jill 12:19 No I'm not Laura, no offense taken.

Wouldn't it make sense for "respected pro-life leaders" to make an appointment, and approach the Senator in a respectful and courteous manner, rather than ambush him?

It is ironic that you anti-choice extremists delight in demonizing,insulting, offending and alienating the politicians who have the strongest pro-life voting records.

It must be because it is more about your desperation for attention, and your delight in making others angry, than about achieving your purported goals.

Anon, the leaders were in DC for another reason and decided to try and see him. That is their right. He still could have feigned "no time" but didn't.

You are on the other side. You certainly want to underplay the magnitude of Kline's Planned Parenthood investigation. Brownback has been a pro-life stalwart; he understands. This is not the time to cave to politics. PP's alleged criminal activities - corroborated as possible by 2 judges who have seen the evidence - would signficantly hurt PP as a whole if they're found true. This conviction would open the door to other investigations around the country. It would be a first. That is why your side is fighting so hard against it.

Thus, there is something quite wrong with Brownback's decision here. Several influential pro-lifers asked him privately not to make it. He defied them. That was his right, certainly, but he must answer for it.

"PP's alleged criminal activities - corroborated as possible by 2 judges who have seen the evidence - would signficantly hurt PP as a whole if they're found true"

maybe their building permits are not completely in order.

Kline is a clown, soon to be relegated to the dustbin of history. It would be impossible to "underplay the magnitude of his PP investigation", since it is a nothing more than a publicity stunt by an attention seeker. There is nothing to "fight against", as his frivolous "investigation" has and will continue to collapse of its own weight.

In the meantime, go ahead and alienate Brownback and other pro-life politicians and see where that gets you.

Anon, I'm all for letting his "frivolous 'investigation'... collapse of its own weight" - or not. But PP's political cronies in power aren't letting that happen.

Not eliminating Brownback... hoping to correct him.

I hope you meant "alienating", not "eliminating" a United States Senator.

Why on earth would they need to pipe a meeting for the benefit of their own staff? The senator could and probably did tell them all about it.

That's just nuts.

I asked this question in the other Brownback thread....does anyone know why Steve Howe is unacceptable to the pro-life community?

At this point, there seems to be little difference between Howe and the Democrat. Both are former Morrison staffers, both announced their campaigns by attacking Kline, and neither has spoken a word about the investigation.

If Howe thought the investigation was important, he would have long ago demonstrated a little political savvy and reached out to the Kline camp. Instead, he's done nothing but try to distance himself.

Whether Howe likes the issue or not, he's going to need Kline's base for the general. Failure to reach out to Kline and the base will result in his defeat. The Brownback stunt is a step backward for Howe, no matter who is responsible.

And time is running out. If Howe can't see the writing on the wall, he doesn't deserve to be DA anyway.

Thanks for the answer JoCo Dude. But I'm curious about why Howe would need Kline's "base"...since Kline lost the AG election, and was only barely appointed in JoCo by way of some sketchy manuevering. Actually, I'm not really surprised that he's not running again, considering he wasn't elected to the position to begin with, and has made a right fool of himself since then.
