Parkinsons is easily manageable, but at 70 he may well decide enough is enough. It is hard to step away from power and prestige.

“Seven Republicans who voted “yea” to fast-track and are also running for re-election next year cleaned up between January and March. Senator Johnny Isakson of Georgia received $102,500 in corporate contributions.”

I question the timing of this revelation—I think it’s for a “pity-vote” when he tries to keep his seat. Sorry. Very un-PC of me, but I don’t give a damn. I’m sick to death of these bastards lining their pockets as America goes down the tubes.

This guy is a traitor in my opinion, AND a whore for money.
He needs to retire, and I have told him so.

Sorry I’m from Georgia and Isakson is a pox on the GOP. He needs to go. I pray somebody runs agains’t him so we can primary him next year. If he dies well then God made the decision. Who am I to judge?
