What a crock! Or is that crook?

What a crock! Or is that crook?
Where's all of the, "Democrats For Riley" signs hiding out? No one's seen any of those!

The Story of Nancy "Turn-Coat" Riley (Democrat).

Nancy ran as a conservative Republican, got to Oklahoma City, and governed as a liberal Democrat.

Driving through her district (37 - Sand Springs, Sapulpa, Glenpool, Bixby, South Tulsa, Broken Arrow), you will see signs that read, "Republicans For Riley". These are obviously intended to confuse and deceive her constituents. Someone who would purposely do that should not be an elected representative of, "We, the people...".

She does not state that her party is now the Democrat Party in her TV commercials or throughout her brochures.

The Oklahoma Democrat Party has been a willing accomplice throughout the period of this behavior; she has raised a very substantial war-chest of campaign funds, after her antics gave full control of the State Senate to the Democrats. Perhaps, after 100 years, it's time for Oklahomans to, finally, let the Republican Party have their 1st chance ever to see if they can do a better job for the good people of the great state of Oklahoma.

The word is hitting the streets about these deceptive practices and Oklahomans are NOT going to put up with this type of activity. A candidate of either party should be forth-coming to their constituents when they've changed political party affiliation; especially, when they make the switch after they've been elected.

Her opponent, Dan Newberry, has been running a clean campaign, having living-room discussions with literally thousands of his neighbors. He wants to represent all of his district's citizens in an open and honest manner. He wants to personally hear, and give deep consideration to, the concerns, thoughts, and ideas of his constituents.

At the time of this writing, Dan Newberry has never even met the citizenry that is putting forth this blog, but he will enjoy the support of this blog, because we need more HONEST elected representatives in government.

Riley tries ’splainin’ herself

POLITICS: SD37: Riley responds to GOP “smear campaign”

(OK) In response to recent remarks by the Republican party that attempt to link her to U.S. House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, Oklahoma Sen. Nancy Riley said she expected a smear campaign.

The story began on July 4, after Sen. Riley, D-Tulsa, gave an interview to the Broken Arrow Ledger in which she gave credit for Oklahoma’s relatively strong economy to high gas prices.

“It may sound crass, but thank goodness for high gas prices,” the article quotes her as saying. “That is what is helping sustain the state’s economy.”

A press release from Randy Swanson, director of the Oklahoma Republican Senatorial Committee, said that “Riley’s recent remarks about high gasoline prices are good for Oklahoma shows she’s out of touch with voters.”

In an interview on Thursday, Riley said she was not referring to gasoline, but rather to natural gas, which she said is an important part of the state’s economy. The context of the remarks is not known, as the article sandwiched them between a short-list of Riley’s legislative priorities and discussion of the state Senate’s 24 to 24 power split.

So…Nancy isn’t for higher gasoline prices, but for higher prices to heat our homes and cook our food. We understand. Keep talking, Nancy.
