I can’t tell if this blogger has an agenda against KBH or if this is real.

But clearly this is red meat to FReepers who don’t care if it’s true or not.

Just as long as it smears KBH.

KBH loves backstabbing in the middle of the night around X-MAS time. In December of 2007 she gave the DEMS the cover they needed to gut the Secure Fence Act that removed the mandate to protect our border by putting up a fence. She is just another globalist tool that they pull out of the bag when they need her.

And nearly as RINO-ish as the amnesty hag, KBH

Lots of pork going to Texas...so Ms. Bailey becomes “another woman of the profession” and I don’t mean politics. These women have no honor, no integrity and no real courage to do the right thing. They are bought....really hate to see KBH going in this direction for a preposterously bad bill, one that if any part is signed into law will cripple the country down the road. For Shame!

Just called her office and they said the filibuster was already broken by the time she voted to get the defense money.

I told them she needs to explain herself then because the blogs are smoking her. She's probably done here in Texas even with a hint of breaking with Republicans.

Except that slowing it down is the right answer in this case.

True.

But Dick Cheney is supporting KBH.

(Bet THAT comes back to haunt him!)

She’s a traitor.

Don’t come back to Texas, Kay. We don’t want you here.

We noticed this on the other thread. There were 63 votes for cloture.

The usual 60, plus:

Snowe, Collins, Hutchinson.

Her DC office isn’t taking calls ... cowards.

But I called her Dallas office and gave them
an earfull for her traitorous vote against
the GOP and with the Democrats.

I was told the reason she voted was:

they already had the votes they needed.

I asked .. so why be on the record voting with them?

I was told the reason she did it was to show support
for the troops.

I said ... BULLoney .. voting with the Dems doesn’t
help our troops .. they know who supports them and
we know what the Dems do to our troops.

I brought up her governship run and said .. her name
is mud. She has betrayed her party and conservatives.

Dallas office .. they’re answering:

SENATOR KAY BAILEY HUTCHISON
10440 N. Central Expressway
Suite 1160
Dallas, Texas 75231
214-361-3500
214-361-3502 (FAX)

She’s pretty much cooked herself .. but damnably
made it easier for the other two female weenie
softhead traitors to our cause to follow her down
the rabbit hole of betrayal and ignominy.

REMEMBER THIS ... don’t let them off the hook.

If the Dems had the 60 votes, if her’s made no difference, then why not stick with the promise she made to us? Why not stick to the comments she made just a few hours before?

Get a backbone, Hutchison!

“Pro choice...” Of course, no further explanation is necessary. That speaks volumes about the values and character of Kay Bailey Hutchison. This is sad.

She voted for it because it’s loaded with earmarks and several are for Texas.

She thinks she’s going to win praise for bringing the bacon home.

I HOPE YOUR GOVERNOR PERRY WINS REELECTION.

I stayed up last night to watch the vote.

So glad you gave them an earfull! KBH cannot EVER be trusted and now she has proven it yet again. Pathetic...but good for Rick Perry(who I support because I can’t stand her...lol).

In the commercials she is running here in Texas, the narrator says she “fought Obama’s stimulus”. Didn’t KB-H vote for it? Is her claim of “fighting” the stimulus another case of “I was against it before I was for it”?

Kay Bailey isn't the brightest bulb in the pack. In fact, she's rather dim.

But could this be a hurry-up-and-die strategy?
