Parker Griffith: opportunist

Do not be fooled by anything that newly minted Republican Congressman Parker Griffith, M.D. says. If his mouth is moving, he’s lying. While he styles himself as a modern day Marcus Welby, he is anything but trustworthy. Accepting his membership in the GOP conference is like allowing a sex offender into a convent.  He denounces the House Democrat leadership as too liberal while pocketing their money, voting with them half of the time and accepting generous help from the Democrat Campaign Committee. This is about nothing more than his re-election. He knew that getting re-elected as a conservative Democrat was iffy and so he switched parties revealing himself to be the unscrupulous opportunist that he is. National Republicans can do better than Parker Griffith and so can North Alabama.
