OK, South Dakota. Next time this idiot comes up for reelection, do your duty for your country. Help us all while you help yourselves.

Daschle's first book signing.
To: JeanS
So Daschle has concerns, has disdain, and is disappointed while everybody else demonizes, rules by fear, and stifles dissent. How typical.

"Ive often wondered since then what George Bush might have been told about me that would make him begin this conversation, this relationship, from an implied position of mistrust."
Ask your constituents, Dash-hole.

>>a meeting in late March between him and Sen. Chris Dodd (D-Conn.), <<
Oh yeah, I remember the tale about Chris Dodd and Teddy Kennedy. Seems as though they both got "interrupted" when they were playing "sandwich" with a waitress, upstairs in a Georgetown restaurant.
Is it any wonder Bush trusts NONE of them?

By putting down members of their own party who disagree with them even more ruthlessly than they deal with the other party. No offense my friend, but you're starting to sound like Daschole talking about some of the good ones.
and his scathing criticism of House Majority Leader Tom DeLay (R-Texas), whom he accused of ruling by fear, by discouraging any form of dissent among his membership, and by punishing those who dare to disagree.

I hope youll never lie to me.
That statement caught me up short. What an unusual concern to express in such a meeting.
Ive often wondered since then what George Bush might have been told about me that would make him begin this conversation, this relationship, from an implied position of mistrust.
".....an implied positionof mistrust" COUNT ON IT MR. PRESIDENT! And, shoot you in the back as you walked back out of the Dascle Saloon!

I'v always been amazed no one asked Gore to apologize for his actions in Florida. His whole case was that, if you recounted those few counties, he would win. When the newspapers did a calm, sober recount the result was that Gore was wrong. The votes simply weren't there. He should have apologized for putting the country through 36 days of uncertainty and partisan nastiness for no good reason.
It's also amazing no one pointed out the stupidity of his concession speech. There he said: "I accept the decision of the Supreme Court." Duh! What else could you do - go to the World Court? It was one of the dumbest things I've ever heard.

What is this "hideaway office" thing? Good descriptions by some of the other posters but some additional information. A "hideaway" office is a private office for a senator usually found in the basement or lower levels of the U.S. Capitol building. It's the space where legislators and other capitol functions used to have their primary offices (way back in history when government was a lot smaller and there were fewer states to represent) before all of the auxiliary office buildings were built across the street from the Capitol, etc.
Back in the days when you could wander around unescorted, you could walk down hallways and see nothing other than an office number on the outside of a wooden door. When I was walking by with guests one time, a door opened and we got a brief glimpse of what looked to be something akin to what you'd have in your family room--sitting chairs, a couple of sofas, etc. No doubt some use it as their private "interview" or "party" rooms and would probably end up sleeping there to be close to the floor if the Republicans ever decide to have a "real" filibuster.
Another perk paid for by us taxpayers...

His revelation that he intended to run for president himself in 2004 until he decided, after enduring excruciating inner turmoil, that he did not want to risk giving up his Senate seat and could not run for president and lead his caucus in a new Senate that had an aggressive and extremely empowered Republican majority. For someone who is concerned with risking his Senate seat .. Dashole seems to do a bang up job at attacking or blaming almost everyone in the Congress

No offense my friend, but you're starting to sound like Daschole talking about some of the good ones.Offense taken. The post I answered referenced Trent Lott - widely referred to as Traitor Lott for his determination to help Bill Clinton get away with his crimes. He was not one of the good ones. Ever.

Read the article again. You may have been talking about Lott, however, your quote sounds like Daschole talking about TOM DELAY, whom I consider to be one of the good ones. Sorry I didn't make that clearer.

He IS one of the good ones. The similarity you note is because the Democrats have a habit of accusing others of what they know themselves to be guilty of.
