If you believe this you are pretty gullable....this guy has been talking about this "job offer" since February....he has either been stretching the truth all along which is not likely OR he's not telling the truth now...I would venture that he's not being totally honest now....since he has only put out a written statement...but he is a democrat...the same party that Blumenthal belongs to.....so maybe Sestak didn't lie.....he probably "misspoke"!
RAW DATA: Sestak's Statement on White House Report on Job OfferPublished May 28, 2010
| FOXNews.com
The following is a statement from Rep. Joe Sestak elaborating on the job offer the White House indirectly offered him last summer:
"Last summer, I received a phone call from President Clinton. During the course of the conversation, he expressed concern over my prospects if I were to enter the Democratic primary for U.S. Senate and the value of having me stay in the House of Representatives because of my military background.
He said that White House Chief of Staff Rahm Emanuel had spoken with him about my being on a Presidential Board while remaining in the House of Representatives. I said no. I told President Clinton that my only consideration in getting into the Senate race or not was whether it was the right thing to do for Pennsylvania working families and not any offer. The former President said he knew I'd say that, and the conversation moved on to other subjects.
"There are many important challenges facing Pennsylvania and the rest of the country. I intend to remain focused on those issues and continue my fight on behalf of working families."
