DEGOP Heaps scorn on John Carney for his Johnny-come-lately conservatism

I don’t know who John Carney was trying to impress with his vote to give the GOP a veto proof majority. It seems to have filled Charlie Copeland with contempt.

Newark, DE — The Chairman of the Delaware Republican Party, Charlie Copeland, released the following statement this morning in reaction to Congressman John Carney’s vote in support of Republican legislation that would implement a “timeout” in relocating Syrian refugees in the United States:

“John Carney was against keeping Delaware citizens safe until he was for it.

“The question is, as a Democratic candidate for Governor, what is he actually doing to ensure that Governor Jack Markell changes his position on opening his arms, and Delaware taxpayer funds, to the ‘needles in the haystack’ who want nothing more then to bring harm to Delaware residents?”

“Will John Carney vote to override President Obama’s expected veto of the legislation? Has he picked-up the phone to call the Governor to demand he change his position? These are questions he needs to answer.”
