I never knew there was a Jesse Jackson wing of the republican party. Calling them racist is a knee-jerk reaction. True, one of them is a clansman, but I think they all just represent the anti-war crowd and Rice was part of the Iraq policy. I'm sure they voted against her because she is just a big of a hawk as President Bush. I'm sure that if Rumsfeld were up for Sec of State they'd have voted the same.
I don't think so. Schwarzenegger will complete his second term just in time to oust Boxer.
I found Bayh a surprise as well.
These people are not racists. The only racist in the group is Robert Byrd, a bonafide hater of Black folks!!! However, every single one of them are traitors to our country. And....IMHO they are all guilty of treason and should be treated accordingly. They are all enablers of our enemies, and are directly responsible for prolonging the rebuilding of Iraq and slowing the war on terror. Their actions and the actions of their political party are responsible for many needless American military deaths and injuries as they enbolden the enemy to fight on!!! The American people should rise in the majority and destroy this current Democrat Party at the polls.
making deals
Good ole Dickie Durbin is on the list. Why does that not surprise me? The guy's an absolute moron who hasn't had an intelligent thought his whole life. Yet, the junior senator from Illinois, Brick-a-Brack, Osama-My-Mama Obama (doing my best impression of Ted Kennedy) votes for Condi. I can't wait 'til Dickie is up for re-election.
I agree. Calling people racist because they don't vote for a candidate sound more like the tactics of Jesse Jackson than a true conservative.
Evan Bayh's lifetime ACU rating through 2003 is 22.
Technically speaking no. They won their elections or they wouldn't be there in the first place. Says somehting about the population of voters in those areas doesn't it?
dum question: couldn't the republicans that voted for him oust him through recall ? He used the GOP to get elected
Okay, then the people who voted for them are losers. LOL
Thanks for posting.
Anyone know who the two who did not vote were???
Racists? Honestly. This is a case of party politics, pure and simple. This is about a hatred for GWB and everything he stands for. Tossing out blanket accusations of racism cheapens the meaning of the term and renders it meaningless and makes the accuser like a nut. (think Jessie Jackson and Al Sharpton)
And WE should Keep a Close watch on what they do and how they vote.
They should NOT be allowed to get away with what they did to Dr. Rice yesterday.
Republicans and Concerned Citizens across America ought to make sure that these Racist Socialist Politicans are NOT Voted back into their Cushy, Money Making-Pork Belly Office$ in the Next Election.
It Worked in South Dakota...DASHOLE IS...OUT Of Washington, still scratching his stupid head wondering what happened to him and these miserable LOOSERS will be the Next bunch to GO as well.
The DEMONRATS WILL NEVER LEARN that they are the minority opinion and their Selfish, Self serving behaviors do nothing to help them succeed in pushing their Socialist / Communist Agendas.
WE HAVE THE POWER TO VOTE THEM OUT.
But when it comes to Judicial and Cabinet appointments, he usually follows the Minority Leader. His responses to Judicial Filibusters was a form letter that was word for word what Dashole was shovelling.
