Menendez: You Put Your Hand On The Bible
Senator Bob Menendez is placing his perfect rating with the folks at the Secular Coalition for America in jeopardy. The Hill noted just yesterday that Menendez was one of 18 “senators earning the aetheists’ praise”. Now that he’s been caught with his hand in the federal cookie jar and lying about it, he’s breaking out the Bible:
There may be one small bit of truth to this ad, if you notice Menendez doesn’t say “I put my hand on the Bible and swore to tell the truth.” His ad goes on to quote from various news papers – here’s just a few quotes Menendez forgot to mention:
"There have been 75 corruption indictments in New Jersey over the last four years. The public has a right to yearn for a break from the past, and Mr. Menendez does not represent a clean slate." - New York Times, December 9, 2005
"I had no choice but to testify. I did not go running to Newark.” – Star-Ledger, June 23, 2006
Menendez also admitted that he had written two, one million dollar checks to the mob connected contractor, for the same invoice, but said that it was nothing more than an error in bookkeeping. - Star-Ledger, June 22, 2006
Bob Menendez claimed he received “verbal approval” from the House ethics committee, for a cozy deal he had with the federally funded North Hudson Community Action Corporation, although he said he did not obtain a written opinion. - Star-Ledger, August 25, 2006
Menendez's financial disclosure forms filed with the House Ethics Committee showed the rental income as required, though not the source. - Bergen Record, August 26, 2006
Menendez claimed the “verbal approval” he received came from Mark Davis, a former Ethics Committee counsel, who conveniently for Menendez, is dead. - Associated Press, September 9, 2006
Mark Davis left the House Ethics Committee before Menendez entered into his deal with the federally funded agency. - Star-Ledger, September 9, 2006

Snake oil salesman - Phoney Menendez now using the Bible.....
WHAT A DISGRACE !
Calling him ruthless is an understatement.
This add is the perfect time to remind the asses...I mean voters, that if Menendez was indeed wearing a bulletproof vest it was for protection from his former associates.
