Vote him out in 2010.

He is in the most liberal voting district in Texas. "9/11 was an inside job" and "Meat is Murder" are common bumper stickers around there.

[cweese]

Dog$hit could care less. He made that clear by his statement that he’s more resolved than ever to see this healthcare farce pass.

[a fool in paradise]

Durbin's now claiming that the protests are funded by the medical industry.

Durbin warns other lawmakers of healthcare town hall 'sucker punch' (The Hill Monday, August 03, 2009)

[presently no screen name]

What makes him think there were no ‘rats in the bunch saying ‘just say no’. There are some that have woken up!

This idiot has it backwards - it ‘we the people’ and that truth is definitely missing.

Listen here little lloyd, foolishly spending the peoples money and taking away their freedoms does not a noble politician make. You sir are are an enemy of the people.

"This mob, sent by the local Republican and Libertarian parties, did not come just to be heard, but to deny others the right to be heard. And this appears to be part of a coordinated, nationwide effort..."

Oh, so many targets! This is Marxist/Alinsky-speak for "How dare you use our tactics against us?

This is another coordinated talking point to belittle the American people, 85% of whom do not want zer0 killing Granny. We will hear this from dimonrats and rinos everywhere until they realize it's not working this time.

His "more resolved than ever" to pass this capital crime against us is translated, "I don't give a flying fig what you think. This will give us power forever over every aspect of your lives and all your money, and you can't stop us, bwaaaa ha ha ha ha!"

Great representative! But who is he representing?

[a fool in paradise]

So we use his tactics. Look at how many Bush policies he reversed the week he got in office.

How quick before we could repeal Obamacare?

[ByteMercenary]

Your assessment of Austin is correct in all aspects except geography. Some of us are considering moving the seat of government to San Antonio or possibly Dime Box.

[Zakeet]

Vote him out in 2010. ... Isn’t he suppose to represent his constituents? ... He just needs to be fired - pure and simple. And let him know. Is he up in 2010?

LLoyd Dogsh*t has been gerrymandered into one of the most liberal districts in the United States. He represents both East Austin
(almost all minorities) and the Fajita Strip. In 2008 he beat his opponent 66% to 31%.

Nothing is going to dislodge this clown short of a load of dynamite.

[TheOldLady]

I’ve heard it said that it can never be repealed. People look at other countries that have it, and see that it’s not working. Their solutions are never repeal, but get-arounds like ignoring their own laws about the illegality of paying a private doctor out of pocket.

But this is the United States of America, and we should be able to do anything once we assume the reins again. How quickly? I don’t know. It depends on how much of the gubmint we can eliminate and replace either through the electoral process, provided we can wrestle it back from the oak seed crowd, or through a Continental Congress — you know, the way we did it the first time.

[lonestar]

LOL!

[lonestar]

He needs an opponent in the primary... a RINO running as a Dem...make him spend some $$$.

[JRandomFreeper]

Oh, Austin is part of Texas. It's where we send the whack-jobs so we can keep track of them. It's also the state capitol. Seemed like a two-fer at the time.

[basil]

I'm more committed than he is! I'm committed to doing everything in my power to getting him replaced next year!

What these a-holes don't realize is that there are now a majority of Americans who want no part of this health care scheme.

Hopefully, 4 yrs of a dim run congress will bring us at least 8 yrs of a conservative run congress.

[SwinneySwitch]

ALL US reps are up in 2010, Zakeet. The fajuta strip is gone now.

[rawhide]

I seem to remember some guy in Washington state suing his constituents and he lost the next election. Turn on your constituents, they will turn on you! Especially for this yo-yo, who was elected in a formally republican congressional district.
