MORE PROOF OF KELLEY'S NAZI COMMENTS #2
Sorry to break your heart Minnesota Lefty Liberal, but here is more proof:
##
"Sen. Steve Kelley, DFL-Hopkins, objected the most to the proposal, saying he fears it sends the message to children that 'we are so distrustful of their loyalty that we make them do this.'
He said the compulsory recitation may be well intentioned but seems reminiscent of forced rituals in Nazi Germany.
Reiter took offense.'This is the Pledge of Allegiance,' she said. 'This is not the Reichstag or anything else.'" Source: Assocaited Press, February 27, 2002

Since we're digging up old quotes, here's another one:
"It's not a proper function of government, to be running and owning and profiting from gambling operations. That's not really part of our Constitution, or the vision that our founding fathers had for our state." Governor Tim Pawlenty on MPR just a few months after taking office.
I guess that "vision" thing gets a little fuzzy when you need money and don't want to tax your rich supporters, but are happy to have the poorest Minnesotans pay nearly twice an effective tax rate as the richest Minnesotans. If our Governor is concerned about "conflict of interest" perhaps he should examine his own conflict between his political pledge and the Constitution (see his above quote) he has sworn to uphold.
Keep playing the victim card. All Lefty Liberal said was "My guess is this was a typo of some sort. Got the date wrong maybe." All I said was that the quote didn't turn up on the Strib search. You should be a little less surprised about being right.
