thanks for the info
I wouldn't mind seeing this become one of our campaign's talking points. It further blunts his suggestion that he is a true change agent.
Gosh, send this to the McCain campaign
This is wonderful!!! Well done!!!
Good rebuttal. The problem, though, is the Democrats are using the statistic to tie McCain to Bush. They really don’t care how he voted on anything. The Democrats plan is to link McCain to Bush and stoke the fires of Bush hatred they have worked so hard to invent.
Moreover, the vast majority of the voted with Bush votes have been on things that were not important but the daily BS the Senate votes on to make themselves feel important.
Still, at least now we have a rebuttal without having to explain it all.
Obama, no hope, no change, no vision. Just the same old same old thing
How about this response? Bush doesn’t VOTE, he’s the President! He vetoes or he signs, but gets NO VOTE!
Barack Hussein Obama, Jr., the charismatic, messianic Magic Negro, actually showed up and recorded a vote?
And here I thought he had been absent much more than he had been present.
Which brings up a pet peeve for this session - now that the major players are all selected and vetted for the Presidential and Vice Presidential slots on each of the major party tickets, they should resign from their present positions and just run full-time and full speed for the higher office to which they aspire. At the very least, it would take two Democrats out of the US Senate. It would show the courage of their convictions. And sure, Senator McCain and Governor Palin would also abide by that rule, but neither Biden nor Obama are brave enough to take the step.
After all, it was considered only “fair” that Bob Dole resigned his seat to run full time in 1996, even though the dice were already loaded against him.
And Congress has 9% rating. Maybe it’s come up lately since they’ve been GONE.
Considering that the Majority Leader will, from time to time, vote nay on an issue he favors in order to keep the debate open; I think that its fair to assume that Obama’s true percentage is actually higher. And this is the man who is going to bring the two America’s together? Certainly haven’t seen any evidence lately.
Be very, very careful where you go with this. McCain’s record of not showing up for votes IS WORSE THAN OBAMA’S!!
Great point.
Why doesn’t McCain run against Dingy Harry and 9% Nancy the MAJORITY leaders of the worst Senate/ House leaders in history?
