Dare I say he's always been fair and not heavy into the Kool-Aid. He could have shut the Rice hearings down or ramroded the vote, but let the Democrats have plenty of time.
Now there's a couple of Indiana Congressmen that make my skin crawl...Buyer, Pence & Disco Danny Burton are good starts, but I have hope someday the state will see the light...maybe it's the lack of Daylight Savings time.

in a room with 600 other Democrats in Montgomery County, that included Albert Wynn, Chris Van Hollen, and bunch of other Democratic congresspersons. It warmed the heart to see all of us together.

44. Your senator is ALSO Debbie Stabenow! |

No slouch herself. She gave a press conference this week on SS and how it's not in crisis. She appeared with Senator Dorgan. Great press conference. They both explained the "Republican agenda" and WHY they want to privatize it (Wall Street would LOVE to get their hands on that money...), and Debbie gave a list of what is REALLY in crisis, the deficit, the war, no health insurance, etc.

|
Roberts probably STILL thinks there are WMD in Iraq,he usually spouts that to some newspaper on a daily basis. Brownback,the moralality Senator wants to clean up that filth in Hollywood once and for all.
How funny it was when it was discovered he had loads of money in Mutual funds that had stock in Hollywoods studios. Pat Roberts hails from western Kansas where the Federal Government hands out cash to farmers right and left. I can just see them whining about some welfare mom sucking money from taxpayers on their way to the mailbox to pick up THEIR Government welfare check.
