well what i'm saying is that the negative always gets the spotlight...I can't remember the link but McCain votes ovr 80% or so with the Repubs but gets the spotlight on issues that show him on the Dem side. The press is lib so they like to show McCain in their light and not the total light
The usual suspects! Isn't Jumpin' Jeffords up for election in 2006? Any chance the Republicans can pick up this traitor's seat?
Whoops, thought I was on the longer LIVE thread (I have both windows open)
The thirteen are:
Boxer
Bayh
Byrd
Dayton
Akaka
Lautenberg
Levin
Durbin
Kennedy
Kerry
Reed (of RI)
Jeffords
Ack, someone is slipping my mind...
He announced on the Senate Floor yesterday that he would vote no.
I recommend looking up his comments as they are very revealing about this supposed "moderate".
McCAin still has to stay viable with the real voters for 2008.
And don't say that anyone here won't vote for that ticket when the only alternative is Hillary and Bill back in the white House.
well I didn't use the word "moderate" I said non partisan but even pundits like Hannity and others have descrobed him this way. The thing about him is he doesn't lash out and become rabid like alot of the Dems.......I will listen to anyone that is civil with their discourse. When you listen to him in interviews he is quite reasoned. Not a conservative but reasonable
Does anyone know who started the the story that Bush and his people actually lied about WMD's in Iraq?
I figure it was MoveOn or Answer, or one of the tried and true hard left socialist groups (guess that means any of the Dem politicians, for that matter). But I now keep hearing "Bush lied" from ordinary people on the street who should know better and I'd love to let them know who they are quoting when they say that.
Ah, yes, clearly Bush's fault. he should have known about the bad weather and had a plan in place to counter it!
that sounds fine and I would never underestimate either of the Clinton's. Say what you want about them but they are both very good politicians. I wouldn't mind a conservative and a moderate on the ticket....you could throw Guilianni in there too.......I'm not a one issue voter so some of their stances don't bother me nearly as much as a Dem winning cause some people are too narrow minded to be inclusive
James Jeffords is such a tool.
Boxer <--- Still channeling Mikey Moore
Bayh <--- A real son of a Birch
Harkin <--- POS lied about HIS service during Vietnam, never saw a minute of air combat.
Kennedy <--- Unindicted murderer of Mary Jo Kopechne
Byrd <--- Racist former Klansman suffering from dementia
Kerry <--- Traitor, violated Logan Act TWICE.
Akaka <--- Another Hawaiian 'Rat
Levin <--- Reprising Burgess Meredith role as 'The Penguin'
Jeffords [I] <-- say what you will, Jumpin Jim is a [D]
Durbin <--- Who put the 'DU' in 'Durbin'?
Dayton <--- Politically Dead Putz Walking
Reed <--- As small as the State he represents (Rhode Island)
Lautenberg <--- Joisy toxic waste overflows the bowl again.
Yes he is. He dissed the SBVets. It should have been a "Thumper moment"
(Thumper: If you can't say something nice, don't say anything at all.)
but McCain is one of the few in the Senate who is trying to get rid of waste and the PORK in the budget that all the senator whores get for their state......that is not a big govt theme
That cunning runt couldn't kill herself with instructions........
This vote against Rice by Evan Bayh is unexpected. It only makes sense if he is keeping his options open for a POTUS bid in '08.
