10/14/02 Kirk's
afraid of National Debate
|
Do you think it's because he has absolutely no substance, no command of the
facts and is afraid of national exposure? It's Ron Kirk who is a big bag
of wind. Surely, Kirk is not confusing Tim Russert with the Big Bad
Wolf! After all, last weekend Ron Kirk was partying hearty with a bunch of
gangsta rapper thugs. Why would Ron Kirk be afraid of Tim Russert?

W.
K. Gordon, III:
It is no surprise that Ron Kirk is afraid to appear with John Cornyn on
a national TV show, even when moderated by a Democrat like Tim Russert.
Kirk was a lousy mayor who sold out the city to a select few wealthy and
ruthless developers, taking a half million dollar (this much is
documented -- no telling what else is involved) payoff through his wife,
obligating the city to awful deals, and leaving the city $95,000,000 in
debt.
On top of this, Kirk was an arrogant and foul-mouthed hothead
who relished bullying female council members.
I
hope you keep at this poor excuse for a man so your readers might
get a glimpse of the true Ron Kirk. Partisan politics
notwithstanding, this man is simply not worthy of any informed Texan's
vote. |

NEW:
National
TV debate between Cornyn, Kirk still possible

U.S.
Senate candidates Ron Kirk and John Cornyn, who have agreed to debate Oct.
23 in Dallas and the next night in Brownsville, still might debate on
national TV.
Both had been invited to appear on NBC-TV?s ?Meet
the Press? on Oct. 6, but Kirk passed.
. . . Kirk called the program?s host, NBC?s Washington bureau chief
Tim Russert, a ?huff and puff.?
Russert, whose program reaches 6 million viewers
a week, was mystified.
?What is a ?huff and puff??? Russert said
today. ?Sometimes candidates get tired and say things. I?m here to do
my job, and I want to do a debate with the candidates from Texas.? . . . |
