CONDIT VOTED NO ON TRAFICANT (Official Vote Tally HERE)

House Clerk ^ | 07.24.02 | Government

[Tolerance Sucks Rocks]

Num-bah OOOOOOOOOOOOOOONE is the LONELIEST NUM-BAH THAT YOU'LL EV-AH DO!!!

They can pack some serious @$$-kicking into 2 or 3 minutes!

[Bandolier]

Traficant is a dumb dock thug, strongarmed union biches out of a few bucks; generally a punk who needs to be slapped.
Condit is a child molester, violent rapist and murderer; and deserves a stake and a hot fire.

There ain't no comparison between the two, hon'.

[NeoCaveman]

Nope Barney Frank had the gay brothel in the basement. The Congressman who raped the 17 year old page was Gary Studds (D-MA). Can't remember the name of the guy who raped the 17 year old female page.

Can I feel your forehead? Aspirin, bed rest, and lots of fluids should rid you of this delirium.

If you're being sarcastic, forget I said anything. :-)

[Tolerance Sucks Rocks]

I apologize. Coulda sworn you said Condidit. I need the freakin' bed rest, looks like.

[admiralsn]

Yes, that is right. I knew Frank was mixed up in something.

[plain talk]

Well I suppose there are certaintly gobs of liberals I despise more than him. And the gonad-less Republicans constantly frustrate me. But you are going to defend Ron Paul for voting to expell a member convicted of 10 felonies and want me to explain myself? The man has no common sense.

[Tolerance Sucks Rocks]

Nope Barney Frank had the gay brothel in the basement.

Anyone heard Rush's commercials for Solomon-Barney-Frank, the firm Maxine Waters complained about?

[marajade]

OMG... I wonder why... Very interesting...

[Bandolier]

OOOOO-OOOO-OOO-OOO--Ooohh, on the road to shambala!

How does your light shine, on the road to shambala!!

[Fizzie]

Thanks for going to the trouble of doing this.

[weikel]

Only decent thing Condit ever did in his life I guess.

[rintense]

True, true... politics make such strange bedfellows...

[Dr. Eckleburg]

Yep.

Washington doesn't like mavericks. You're either with 'em or you're out.

[VRWC For Truth]

I think Condit was giving the ONE finger salute. }:->

[dalebert]

It is interesting. Wonder why Congress didn't have the guts to vote him out. I don't consider a missing woman(now dead) a private matter.

Daniel B. Crane (Phil's brother) was with the female page. He was defeated for reelection that year (1984), namely because he was a Conservative Republican. Gerry Studds, with the male page, being that he was a leftist Democrat and being that he was from Taxachusetts, he was rewarded with reelection until his retirement 12 YEARS later in 1997.

[Willie Green]

Condit is trying to send a message, I'm just not sure what it is.

My guess is that it is a clear signal that Traficant is getting railroaded.
Not that Traficants innocent by any means.
IMHO, he was "dirty". Organized crime "dirty". Mafia "dirty".
But had served his purpose as a "useful idiot" and was set-up and hung-out to twist in the wind by those who are covering their tracks.
Just a wild guess, but perhaps Condit was set-up by the same mafioso.

[Jhoffa_]

Me too.

[Republican Wildcat]

Weird. I would have thought Traficant would have voted no on his own expulsion...of course if he saw the vote tally he might have just threw up his hands and walked on out of the room.
