Cazayoux Rallies with Pro-Abortion, Pro-Gun-Control, Pro-Tax Congressman

Less than a week after attacking Bill Cassidy for inviting NRCC Chairman, Tom Cole (R-OK), for coming to Louisiana to support Bill Cassidy, Don Cazayoux has changed his position out of political convenience.  Don Cazayoux attacked Bill Cassidy for inviting Congressman Cole because of Cole’s support for an economic recovery plan.  However, in an effort to gather support in the African-American community, Cazayoux is having a rally with Democrat Majority Whip, James Clyburn, who was in charge of making sure the Economic Recovery bill passed in the House of Representatives.

 

 

 

 

 

At an Obama/Cazayoux Rally at Southern University, Don Cazayoux will stand on stage with a Congressman who is pro-abortion, pro-gun-control and pro-taxes to rally support for Obama who is pro-abortion, pro-gun-control, and pro-taxes.  In previous Obama/Cazayoux rallies, Cazayoux has told predominantly African-American audiences that he was, “proud to endorse Senator Barack Obama for President,” and that he supports Obama’s economic agenda to tax small businesses and “share the wealth” with those who don’t pay taxes.

Chris Ingram, a spokesman for the Bill Cassidy campaign, issued the following statement:

“Congressman Cazayoux says on TV that he is pro-life, pro-gun and wants lower taxes, but in his rally today Cazayoux will stand with the Congressman responsible for rounding up the votes for Nancy Pelosi’s pro-abortion, pro-gun-control and pro-tax agenda at a rally to support a candidate for President that the NRA said would be the “most anti-gun President in U.S. history.” 

Don Cazayoux has only been a Congressman for a few short months, but he is already showing voters that he says one thing in Louisiana and does something different when it is convenient. The voters of Louisiana are smart enough to know that a Congressman who is pro-life, pro-gun and wanted lower taxes would never support Barack Obama for President.”

 

Support where it Counts, Money when it Matters

Friday, October 17th, 2008

During election season candidates can say many things on TV, but they can’t hide where they raised their money.  The only poll that matters is on Election Day, and the only people who can vote in Louisiana’s Sixth Congressional District will be those people from here.

The candidates for Congress in Louisiana’s Sixth Congressional District released new financial disclosure reports this week.  If you look behind the numbers and see where support is coming from and who will have money to compete in the home stretch, the story is clear:  Bill Cassidy has support where it counts, and the money when it matters.
