Jersey's Top Lawman Denies 
Halfacre to Sipprelle: "Are Holt Protesters Political Terrorists?"
| January 26, 2010Save Jersey was the first to report that CD-12 primary contender Scott Sipprelle (R-Princeton) donated thousands of dollars to Democrat federal candidates over the last decade.
The Halfacre campaign team has relentlessly pursued this story ever since.
Their latest angle is a little convoluted. Incumbent Rush Holt held a CD-12 town hall meeting last night and was met by throngs of angry tea party people demanding his head. Since one of Sipprelle's Democrat donees was Rep. Baron Hill (D-IN), a Democrat who referred to Obamacare protestors as "political terrorists" back in the Summer of '09, Halfacre's campaign manager is now demanding to know whether Sipprelle shares Hill's views on the topic.
The release:
Tom Fitzsimmons, campaign manager for 12th District Republican congressional candidate Fair Haven Mayor Mike Halfacre, asked today whether Wall Street insider Scott Sipprelle considered the attendees asking Rush Holt pointed questions at his townhall meeting in Marlboro Monday night “political terrorists”.
“Last June, Scott Sipprelle inexplicably gave $2,500 to five House Democrats. One of the five, Baron Hill of Indiana, twice referred to the people who showed up at townhall meetings all over the United States
Baron also voted for the controversial healthcare bill.
Fitzsimmons noted that last summer, while Mr. Sipprelle was supporting Democrats and Congressman Hill was insulting constituents, Halfacre hosted his own townhall meeting in Middletown
“In August, when Rush Holt held his townhall meeting in a 240 seat venue, Mayor Halfacre held a “Townhall for All” right outside Holt’s meeting for all the people who couldn’t get in,” said Fitzsimmons. “There were nearly 400 people there and Mike allowed everyone to speak, regardless of their point of view. That’s what a true representative would do, and that’s why Mayor Halfacre will be a great representative of the 12thDistrict when he’s elected in November”
I'm glad you described this as convoluted although that seems like understatement. But, I guess, what else is to be expected from a professional politician like Halfacre and his political hack. Let's distract folks from the real issues that will actually bankrupt this country over the next 5 years by throwing as much mud as we can on fellow Republicans or anyone else that threatens our ability to feed at the public trough.
Halfacre would actually make a good congressman if your model is the crew that has wrecked the country and stolen us blind over the last 10 years.

Halftrack's campaign (to use the term loosely) gets more pathetic by the day. Does Halftrack have a constructive thought in his head? Does this notorious double-dipper have anything to offer beyond now trying to wrap himself in teabags? Who's running anyway? We only hear petty commentary from his mouthpiece who totally dominates the putative candidate's road to oblivion. I'm beginning to believe that Fitsommons is actually a plant by Halftrack's political enemies.
