Phil Murphy’s First Campaign Ad Of The Season Is A Bunch Of Bull
/Lots of folks were writing about Governor Phil Murphy’s first TV ad of the fall yesterday (read here, here, here or here).
Today it’s my turn. I’ll sum it up in simple terms: Phil Murphy’s first campaign ad is a bunch of crap!
The Democrats who listen to the show, read this blog and send us hate mail are all thinking I’m a partisan, obviously I’m going to think the ad is a bunch of crap.
Let’s take a look. The ad features Murphy walking through a park with a diverse group of men, women and children, though some may “identify” as something other than what they appear to be, and speaks directly into the camera:
“My job? Moving New Jersey forward. And making New Jersey work for all of us. That means the best public schools. A stronger economy. A cleaner environment. That justice works for all. Working to make healthcare, childcare and college more affordable. It’s building opportunity. And protecting our right to vote and our right to choose. And always keeping us safe and healthy. That’s my job. And, with your help, I’ll keep working at it. We’re not going back.”
What a bunch of bull!
Making New Jersey work for all of us? How? Was New Jersey working for all of us when Murphy took $2 million away from veterans to give to illegal immigrants for legal defense?
A stronger economy? Shut up! One-third of New Jersey’s businesses closed down thanks to Murphy’s COVID policies.
Justice works for all? I’m wondering if the families of the men allegedly shot and killed by Ronny Paden, Jr. feel like Murphy is providing “justice for all?” In case you forgot here’s a snippet about Paden from NJ.com:
“EDGEWATER PARK — Two men slain here in January were the unintended victims of a gunman at a birthday party, authorities say.
The alleged shooter, 27-year-old Ronny Paden Jr. of Delran, did not target James Gist III, 29, of Westampton and Marcus Thompson, 29, of Willingboro, according to the Burlington County Prosecutor's Office.
Paden, who's accused of killing the men on Jan. 24, was released early from prison in November 2020 under a policy meant to curb the spread of COVID-19 among inmates, the prosecutor's office said.
Paden had been serving a five-year term in connection with a September 2016 shooting that wounded a man in Willingboro.”
Great job Phil!
Protecting our right to vote? Really? Wrong! Murphy only cares about protecting the Democrats’ right to vote. That’s why Gloucester County GOP Chair Jacci Vigilante had to go to court to stop ballot drop box locations from being placed only in Democratic-leaning towns.
Right to choose? Choose what? My doctor and I decided that I should not get vaccinated and all Murphy does is complain that everyone should be vaccinated. I will continue to listen to my doctor, she’s much smarter than Murphy.
Always keeping us safe and healthy? Letting guys who are in jail for 5 years for shooting someone out of jail because of COVID makes no one safe. And, keeping me healthy is my doctor’s job, not Murphy’s.
These are just some of the reasons Murphy’s first ad of the season is bull. Here’s the ad, decide for yourself:
