Posted on 04/19/2005 11:07:48 AM PDT by ken5050

OK..here's what we know..Senate is in recess for the weekly party caucus luncheons. Supposed to resume at 2:15. on C-span 2.. The Foreign Relations committee is supposed to meet at 2:45 to vote on the Bolton nomination. Lugar has refused requests for a delay. Just before the Senate recessed, Reid objected to Frist's UC request for the Froeign Relations committee to meet today. Frist withdrew his request..

If you are a dem I can see why you would think those dem recipients are worthy of a so-called republican donating to them.

I hate when I miss the kiss.

Since they didn't buy me dinner, I went ahead and made eggplant parm.

I've been hearing for years that even though they're in the majority in both houses they still talk and act like the defeated minority party. I'm beginning to see what the talking heads mean by that.

Hey Howlin...when you post make sure you wave to your LP stalker. You know he's tracking your every post! ;) LMAO!!!

Well, folks, here is more proof that the connection between being a conservative and a republican (notice the little "r") is pretty tenuous.

Now, when a liberal tries to insult me by calling me a republican, I think I will be insulted.

Seriously, look at it this way. When the Dims are in majority they are advancing their agenda. When pubs are in majority, the Dims are still advancing their agenda. Someone clue me in as to what benefit we are getting from have "republicans" in the majority (certainly not in control).

Prescription drug Frankenstein, millions of illegals flowing in, insults from the mexican president (and we turn the other cheek, or bend over more accurately), an education bill nightmare written by Teddy K (who then walks out and immediately savages Bush}, one nominee after another crapped on and publicly slandered (with weinie support from the pubs).

Tell me something. Other than having a chief that isn't getting hummers in the oval office & selling technology to the ChiComs, what just exactly are we getting from (in my case, 3 decades of) consistant, loyal support of the republican party? Outside of (and it is significant, I'll admit) foreign policy with some nads, we ain't getting jack.

Oh, yeah, all the spineless pub senators are still living the life they love.

You know what stupid is??

It's a dog (that's you and me BTW)that gets hit everytime it comes to the door. And, after 500 times of that, still comes to the door expecting food and attention. If it hasn't happened the last 500 times, it surely isn't gonna happen now, or in the future.

Gee, I thought I was the only one who ever used that word to describe a RINO. :)

We have been lulled into thinking George Bush is not given to nastiness and brute force to get his way. It is not true . Watchout, I am sure he is verrry angry right now and heads will roll. For those that follow birth signs,he is a Cancer and is a chip off his mama,not daddy. LOOKOUT!!!

This is why I started a blog for Ken Blackwell, who is running for Ohio Governor in 2006: http://www.ohioforblackwell.om

Voinovich is a RINO and I am ashamed to be living in Ohio. John Bolton deserves to be confirmed!

Voinovich will hear from us again and again. And so will the state party leaders.

Despicable doesn't even begin to describe what happened today. I am ashamed.

I agree. The MSM rotates between him being an amiable dunce and the Evil Jedi Master of republican Politics.

My dad did business with him in Midland. He says that W actually loves for people to "misunderestimate" him.

And I think that people seriously "misunderestimate" him if they think he's not working behind the scenes to get wht he wants while putting on the public face of the uniter not the divider.

We've already donated to Blackwell.

He's got convictions and chutzpah, and we need him!

LOL. I had to laugh at that. If it had been ohioWfan in Voinovich's place, we would not have had a problem :)
