Feinstein focusing on global warming (delivered a lengthy speech.. then drives off in gas guzzler)
LA Times ^ | 10/26/06 | Paul Pringle

.S. Sen. Dianne Feinstein delivered a lengthy, impassioned speech Wednesday about the need for this country, other nations and every individual to step up the fight against global warming.

Then she drove off in a gas-guzzling Lincoln Town Car.

Before she left the Millennium Biltmore Hotel in downtown Los Angeles, the California Democrat also showed flashes of impatience with earnest-faced students who asked about her initial support for the Iraq war and refusal to participate in a debate before next month's election.

If Feinstein seemed unconcerned about sending unflattering messages late in the campaign, it might be a reflection of her wide lead in the polls over Republican Richard Mountjoy, a former state lawmaker with little name recognition and even less money for the contest.

But Feinstein insisted that she takes Mountjoy's challenge seriously, even while acknowledging that she is "very lucky I don't have what you might say is heavy opposition."

"I don't take anything for granted," she said.

The hot air and CO2 given off by this moonbat and others like her along has gone a much longer way toward global warming than any SUV.

a note on Richard Mountjoy, the GOP Senatorial primary winner .. 20 years ago , he was a leader in the state, now his party leadership and even the Gub have turned their back on him.. That H is gonna come in real handy and already has.

You know what really irks me about her campaign is how she just blithely dropped that bit about bringing the troops home from Iraq into one of her "I approved this message because I love kittens and puppies" commercials. Yeah, because as we all know, there's no controversy about that particular topic. Not a bit.

Do as I say, not as I do.

I have seen Sen. Feinstein's house in San Franciso. It's very lovely...and it has private cops at the gate.

A real woman of the people, that one.

Great tag, Mo.

Jim Robinson, Tom McClintock, Ben Stein, Sean Hannity ALL support Arnold against the Democrats,
and know a huge Arnold win will HELP the downticket races.

Anyone trying to use Mountjoy as a posterboy for anti-Arnold hate speak is acting like a Democrat, posing as a conservative ~ knowing full well that Feinstein will not lose unless she drops out or drops dead.

VOTE STRAIGHT REPUBLICAN!

The Town Car is a good choice for her - it gives her room to change her diaper between speaking engagements.
