BLUE ON BLUE TIRADE: House Representative Eric Massa Unloads on Rahm Emanuel, Obama Administration (GUEST IN MOUNTAIN TIME)
Facing accusations that he sexually harrassed a male staffer, Congressman Eric Massa (D-NY) announced that he would resign. However, during a local radio interview on WKPQ on Sunday, March 7th, Massa levied some very empassioned and alarming accusations.
Noticably angry, Massa claimed the Obama administration set him up because of his vote against the increasingly unpopular health care bill. Two individuals Massa singled out by name were House Majority Leader Steny Hoyer, who Massa called a liar and White House Chief of Staff, Rahm Emanuel who appeared to be the target of most of Massa's ire.
As someone familiar with inside-the-beltway politics, former U.S. Congressman Bob Beauprez (R-CO), is available for interviews to discuss the increasingly heated debate over the health care bill. As Beauprez will point out, failure of the bill's passage has not lied with the Republicans but with the failure of the Democrats in both houses to agree.
A possible sign of the acrimony that exists within the Democrat party may be exemplified with the example provided courtesy of the circumstances surrounding Massa's decision to resign. If, as Massa claims, Rahm Emanuel along with other forces aligned with the administration targeted Massa because of how he voted on health care, it is likely going to feed the arguments of those who are claiming corruption is running rampant in Washington.
On his daily blog at www.aLineOfSight.com, Beauprez provides analyis of various political stories from the perspective of someone who has seen firsthand how Congressman via his job as a U.S. Representative from Colorado.
Then, in his blog, Beauprez takes it to another level, expressing his frustration over the remarkable double standard too.

ABOUT YOUR GUEST, BOB BEAUPREZ:
Bob Beauprez is a former dairy farmer, community banker and member of Congress who has spent his entire life working to leave Colorado a little better than he found it.
He was born and raised on a third generation family farm in Lafayette, Colorado. Bob's grandfather emigrated from Belgium in 1907 and founded a general livestock farm specializing in draft horses. Bob's father took over the farm and developed a nationally renowned Hereford beef cattle breeding herd and transitioned to dairy cattle in the 1950s.
The daily regime of chores, field work and milkings taught Bob a disciplined work ethic that would serve him well throughout his life.
After graduating from the University of Colorado in 1970, he went into partnership with his parents and brother, Mike, in the family farming operation. He managed the dairy herd, eventually marketing their cattle throughout the United States with cattle on every continent except Australia.
During that time, Bob pioneered the use of embryo transplant technology to increase the quality and marketability of the family herd. He also served eight years on the National Holstein Association Board of Directors, including five years as Chairman of the Genetic Advancement Committee. He later also became an industry spokesperson and international judge of Holstein cattle.
The dairy herd was dispersed in 1990 and Bob managed the development of the real estate for his family, eventually becoming part of a 1,500-unit residential golf course community. At the same time, Bob and his wife, Claudia, purchased controlling interest in a small community bank. As President, CEO and Chairman, Bob expanded the bank from one to 13 locations and grew its assets from $4 million to more than $400 million in twelve years.
Bob served as President of the Colorado Independent Bankers Association and was on the Board of the Independent Bankers of America.
While running the bank Bob was politically active as the chairman of the Boulder County Republican Party, and later as Colorado State GOP Chairman. He retired from the bank to run for the new 7th Congressional District in 2002, winning the nation’s closest Congressional election that year by 121 votes. After one term, in 2004, he was reelected by more than 30,000 votes.
While in Congress, Bob served on the Ways and Means, Transportation, Veterans Affairs and Small Business Committees. He was also Vice-Chairman of the Highways and Infrastructure Subcommittee and a member of the Republican Leadership Whip Team.
In 2006, he was the Republican nominee for Governor in Colorado.
Since 2007, Bob has published a monthly e-magazine called A Line of Sight (http://www.alineofsight.com/), a public policy and opinion resource on current political issues. Then, in 2009, he authored his first book: A Return to Values: A Conservative Look at His Party. He is also Vice-Chairman of The John Hancock Committee for the States (http://www.hancockcommittee.org/).
Bob married his high school sweetheart, Claudia, in 1970. They have three sons and one daughter, as well as three grandchildren. Bob and Claudia have returned to their agricultural roots recently by purchasing a ranch in the Colorado Mountains near the Wyoming border. They are developing a buffalo breeding herd in partnership with their son Jim. Bob continues to stay politically active, guest hosting on various radio talk shows, doing numerous media interviews nationally, and maintains a busy public speaking schedule.
