Be A Man

Sen. Burns needs to suck it up and act like a man, not a whining little baby.<br />n<br />n<a href="http://www.billingsgazette.net/articles/2006/11/15/news/state/30-burns.txt" >Burns says media dishonest to him</a><br />n<br />n<blockquote>He stopped only briefly to chastise Montana reporters, saying he was "taken advantage of."<br />n"Look you guys, I hate to tell you this, but I don't have anything to say, OK," he angrily told reporters from The Associated Press and Gazette State Bureau. "I want to thank you all for your good humor and everything … you weren't very honest with me and the only way I can be honest with you is not to say anything."</blockquote><br />n<br />nBlaming the media for his loss isn't sucking it up and accepting responsibility for his actions. If Burns wouldn't have been accepting money/bribes from Abramoff he might not have been in this position. <br />n<br />nThe real killer for his re-election bid? Burns's own big mouth, not the media. They just reported things he said. If Conrad wouldn't have criticized <a href="http://nowherethoughts.net/sarpysam/archives/1928-Chewing-On-The-Wrong-People.html"> and belittled firefighters</a> like he did he might have won the campaign. His little "faux pas" when he berated the firefighters changed enough votes that he lost the election.<br />n<br />nBe a man Sen. Burns, accept responsibility for your actions and quit blaming others. It's sickening.<br />n<br />n<strong>A man should look for what is, and not for what he thinks should be.
