Rick Renzi said this, late this afternoon:
"For several weeks, I have been the subject of leaked stories, conjecture, and false attacks about a land exchange. None of them bear any resemblance to the truth, including the rumor that I am planning on resigning," said Renzi, a Republican representing Flagstaff, Prescott and Casa Grande, in a statement.
Well, how did those pesky stories and conjecture get started? Maybe it's from Rick Renzi himself, who said this, earlier this week:
Renzi told The Hill earlier yesterday that he was “looking at” the prospect of resigning.
Mr. Renzi, you have no one to blame but yourself. A-and don't try spinning this as you meant you were resigning from your committees - we ain't gonna believe that anyway.
If you're really so foolish to start the rumor yourself and then get angry and deny it, you're too stupid to be the kind of person I want representing my interests.
