hmmm... maybe he's not so bad....
I'm sorry but he is a terrible terrible choice. Put aside his anxiety to establish completely open borders, he is soooo dull and boring, appears stupid, and believe me, he will be walked all over by everyone.
This is completely moronic. The RNC phone number is 202-863-8500... let them know how you feel.
We can do BETTER than this.
He's great for Paco and Jorge, illegally here from El Salvador. Not so good for Douglas and Trey born in the US looking for a decent paying labor job. Not so good for Mary and Ann, nurses in AZ working 60 hours per week providing free healthcare to Paco's pregnant wife and 3 kids. Not so good for the people who pay taxes and large medical insurance bills, or thier kids who won't be able to collect what they paid into Social Security because Mel Martinez gave it all away to Paco, Jorge and thier families.
I will see if I can get a reaction out of my two Senators from Oklahoma.
Did find this gem:
Of the nine new members of the Senate, seven are pro-life. The new pro-life senators are Mel Martinez of Florida, Johnny Isakson of Georgia, David Vitter of Louisiana, Richard Burr of North Carolina, Tom Coburn of Oklahoma, Jim DeMint of South Carolina, and John Thune of South Dakota. All seven are Republican.
Overall, pro-lifers made a net gain of three votes in the Senate.
The closest election in the Senate won by a pro-lifer was a real nail-biter. Mel Martinez defeated pro-abortion Betty Castor (D) in Florida, receiving 49% to Castor's 48%. Out of 7,410,852 votes cast, Martinez won by only 83,582.
The RNC Chair DOES NOT VOTE ON LEGISLATION. His voting record tells us squat about how he will run the party. If he can't organize his own office, what will he do for the party going into an open Presidential Race??? The only way this could be a good thing is if he's a sock puppet for Rove. Come to think of it, WHY NOT ROVE???
Two Oklahomans. Woohoo!
