Dear Editor,
Did you catch the blushing kerfuffle, when Jason Smith was caught fudging facts on the national stage?
Acting as point man for the Republican impeachment inquiry, Congressman Smith led with his smoking gun, a kid Biden e-mail to his pop, dated 6/6/17.
Smith was caught flat-footed, stumbling and mumbling, when an NBC reporter pointed out that Joe Biden was neither VP nor presidential candidate at that time. Influence peddling is a little tricky when you have no influence.
Apparently the “melt down” went viral on the Internet, and it is interesting to note that the world saw an embarrassing event while the readers of this paper are privy to a pattern of behavior, the Congressman has been scolded twice this year, in this opinion page, for not doing his homework.
As impeachment drum major and Chairman of Ways and Means Smith seems to be a budding Washingtonian,-a player, and he ought to study the-career of the man from Missouri,” Harry Truman,whose rise through the Washington ranks was meteoric.
