Daily Kos :: Comments Casey Surrogate vs. Casey Surrogate

That is not what he said at all. Read it again. (none / 0)

Hoeffel is open about Casey's stances on women's rights, he still is. Pennacchio appears to be saying that the two who are advocating for Casey need to get their stories straight.
And he is right.

  "So, for Mr. Hoeffel to argue Mr. Casey is "progressive" on "all issues" other than choice is an extraordinary stretch. Such a stretch, in fact, that Mr. Hoeffel has mostly backed away from making such claims."

    Do you have a point? He doesn't say the Joe doesn't support Casey. It clearly says that Joe no longer says that Casey is "progressive on all issues other than choice". It's not that complicated.

    - Not only "word," but Chuck is right (4.00 / 7)
      
      Joe used to say that Choice is the only issue Casey is wrong on. Now that position has morphed into, "we might not agree on everything."

        Casey's lack of progressive stances? Have you bothered to look?

        I've seen his progressive stances (3.33 / 3)
        
        I haven't seen Joe Hoeffel back away from calling Casey a progressive.
        If every poster on this thread gave Chuck $5, it would be an above-average fundraising day.

        go ahead and list them (4.00 / 5)
        
        Chuck listed a bunch of issues where Bob is not a progressive:
        
        stem cell research
        
        death penalty
        
        U.S. policy in Iraq
        
        the assault weapons ban
        
        separation of church and state
        
        living wage legislation
        
        universal health care
        
        GLBT rights
        
        preserving an independent judiciary (Terry Schiavo case)
        
        drilling for oil in the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge
        
        I'm familiar with his stance on workers' rights. On which other issues IS he Casey progressive?

        Casey is NOT a progressive. He is FOR the Federal Defense of Marriage Act (Philly Daily News interview), was for invading Iraq, is a favorite son of the NRA, and is more for the death penalty than even santorum is. Watch the Worldview piece for his stand on stem cell research.
