Mumpower Takes Heat Over Impeachment Position
Mumpower has said he would support the impeachment of President Bush because of his failure to address illegal immigration and that he will not accept any funding from the Republican National Committee or be beholden to that group in any way.
Yeakley said he doesn’t think Mumpower would’ve defeated fellow Republicans Spence Campbell, a Henderson County resident, or John Armor, of Macon County, in the primary had he made his bold proclamations before that election.
“I’m not sure I can trust him,†Yeakley said.
I think Mumpower is right on the money. Bush has intentionally left our southern border vulnerable to appease the Mexican government. Three of our border guards are in jail for doing their jobs at the hands of U.S. attorney Johnny Sutton who I have no doubt went after these guys under the direction of the Bush Administration. Sutton even a gave a criminal drug smuggler immunity to testify against our own border guards! I remember watching a hearing between a panel of Senators and Sutton and even the far leftist Dianne Feinstein was disturbed by Sutton’s practices.
As for Mumpower not taking money from the RNC, that’s his decision, but I think it’s a fool hearty one for him to make. Shuler will be well funded and he won’t be easy to beat. On the other hand, I don’t know that the RNC would have much money to give Mumpower anyway.
