Pretty strong challenge from the left, they guy sounds like a Democrat running in the GOP primary.

Doesn't the Sacramento Bee seem a little one sided on this article?

I got three words for Kirby, GFY.

[Chi-townChief]

"His hard anti-abortion stand is unacceptable," Kirby said. "I'm a Catholic, but I believe what a woman does with her body should be between her and her God, not the government."

I guess Mr. Kirby means that it's time for legal prostitution and drug usage (including, of course, uninfringed use of tobacco.)

His liberal stances are bad enough, but the way he expresses himself reveals him to be a complete idiot. I especially like, "I'm a Catholic, but" as he goes on to lecture his own church. I hope he is defeated by 80 points.

Doolittle is my congressman and is very popular, Kirby doesn't stand a chance of beating him in the primary.

Kirby is a trouble maker. In letters to the editor of the Auburn Journal this is very plain. In Placer county where Doolittle is the Rep. it is at least 65% conservative. GWB won by a good margin. And the Auburn Dam is wanted by almost everyone except the Sierra Club, which the enviros fund greatly here. It was Jimmy Carter that stopped the building of the Auburn Dam. It is known widely what kind of President he was.....just spoiled lots of things. Since the election of Gray-Out Davis, and all of his democratic partners in the crime of spoiling all the good things of California....Kirby has been on that side. Nothing more needs to be said about what he really is.....a RINO.

Urologists who want to run for office should probably avoid referring to bodily functions. Do I really have to explain why?

"His hard anti-abortion stand is unacceptable," Kirby said. "I'm a Catholic, but I believe what a woman does with her body should be between her and her God, not the government."

Please! I absolutely detest that "what a woman does with her body ..." crap. What about what a woman does to another person's body? And Catholic! He obviously isn't practicing, nor does he have an in-depth understanding of his faith.

And the auburn dam! We NEED that dam. Kirby is an environmentalist wacko who thinks the planet is more important that the human lives on it (born and unborn).

Though Doolittle isn't my congressman (I have another great conservative, Richard Pombo), I know a lot about his record and have a lot of respect for him. But it's typical of the liberal republicans. They want to fight even someone who is effective.

Go Doolittle!
