Gov.Doyle Needles Rep Gard.

[gizmo1979]

Needles to say Gard didn't get the message.A door county woman with a diabetic child gave over 1 thousand used needles to a Doyle Aide asking him to give them to rep Gard as a protest to his bill banning cell cloning.The Aide delivered the needles but gard didn't get the point.Doyle has refused to apologize!HAHAHA!!!!!

the danger of needles and HIV.

3. That's pretty funny.

But it's really sad that Gard didn't get it. :eyes:

7. Too bad he didn't get all 1000 points

4. I also read

that Gard is demanding an apology.....

hope he holds his breath until the apology comes.........

5. He's a petulant little crybaby, isn't he?

And this guy wants to be gov? Heaven help us.

[sybylla]

6. Yeah, and he called the cops on the mom.

Needles for a GOPrick.

8. She has to pay disposal charges

A democrat from green bay has offered to pay out of his own pocket.

9. I read Doyles Chief of staff

apologized Friday.That's too bad.

[sybylla]

10. Didn't see that - that is too bad.

Yeah, it could have been handled better. I would think a delivery of 6 or 8 large red needle disposal containers full of needles followed by one or two people from the press might have made a better impact.

But this wasn't something that needed to be apologized for in my book.

Sybylla's Maxim - Never apologize for helping a constituent.

11. It could have been handled better

by Doyle's staff...a lot of political mileage was squandered. It seems the Repubs aren't too embarrassed to pull "political theatre" but we are.....

[theshadow]

12. I have to agree.

I can't stand John Gard, but it was a juvenile stunt.
