I live in Georgia and I voted against Cleland.


I get tired of this shame-based BS that because a Democrat was wounded in combat, I have to agree with him on security issues. That's not what Cleland - or any other patriot - fought for.

Rather than try and shame me into voting for lousy ideas, how about trying to come up with better ones?
