Here is a list of current GOP senators. |
|
Please add your own comments about each. I don't know many of them and the trail of destruction they have left behind. I commented about a few and will update the list and repost. Could be good information.
Lamar Alexander (TN) Did sorry job as Sec. of Education. Wayne Allard (CO) George Allen (VA) Currently on talk showcircuit yapping about nuclear option. Pres. hopeful. Robert Bennett (UT) Kit Bond (MO) Sam Brownback (KS) Jim Bunning (KY) Conrad Burns (MT) Richard Burr (NC) Lincoln Chafee (RI) Very moderate. Votes with dems quite a bit. Saxby Chambliss (GA) Lied about a vet to get elected even though he was a draft dodging craphole. Tom Coburn (OK) Thad Cochran (MS) Norm Coleman (MN) Would have handily lost had Wellstone (RIP) lived. One of the new militant repubs--worthless. Susan Collins (ME) John Cornyn (TX) Larry Craig (ID) Mike Crapo (ID) Jim DeMint (SC) Mike DeWine (OH) Elizabeth Dole (NC) Hasn't done shit for NC. Jesse Helms in a skirt. Pete Dominici (NM) John Ensign (NV) Mike Enzi (WY) Bill Frist (TN) What can be said that hasn't already been said. Craphole. Lindsay Graham (SC) On the team that laid out the case for impeachment against Clinton. Chick Grassley (IA) Judd Gregg (NH) Chick Hagel (NE) Pres. hopeful Orrin Hatch (UT) One of the biggest whiners in the senate. Kay Bailey Hutchinson (TX) James Inhofe (OK) Johnny Isakson (GA) Jon Kyl (AZ) Trent Lott (MS) Comments about Strom Thurmond--need to say more?? Richard Lugar (IN) Inept committee chairman. Mel Martinez (FL) John McCain (AZ) Once maverick, now suckup. Licked Bush's boots even though he insulted him and his family in 2000. Mitch McConnell (KY) Lisa Murkowski (AK) Pat Roberts (KS) Rick Santorum (PA) Jeff Sessions (AL) Richard Shelby (AL) Gordon Smith (OR) Olympia Snow (ME) Arlen Spector (PA) Ted Stevens (AK) John Sununu (NH) Jim Talent (MO) Craig Thomas (WY) John Thune (SD) David Vitter (LA) George Voinovich (OH) Against Bolton as nominee but allowed to pass to full senate.

Jim Bunning - Bigoted, feeble-minded, approaching senility, pure rubber stamp.
Mitch McConnell - Bigoted, loudmouthed liar, talking point spewer (pushing hard for the "Constitutional Option", rubber stamp.

former state representative, was appointed to her first term by her father, former Sen. Frank Murkowski, who quit to run for (and win) governor of Alaska. She won her election last year by defeating former guv and Anchorage mayor Tony Knowles in a very close race, with the help of Ted Stevens and some pretty underhanded last-minute negative campaigning. So far Lisa has been fairly moderate, conveniently finding excuses for not voting on critical issues. I noticed she was not present for the vote on Pryor and worked for a compromise on the filibuster issue. She isn't completely sold on Bolton, although my guess is she will vote to confirm him. She (or her office) has been fairly responsive to my numerous letters, which is a good thing.
I'll leave Ted Stevens to somebody else from Alaska.

Involved in a scandal to attract minorities in the Jacksonville area to allow pesticides to be tested on their children, brought to light by Barbara Boxer and Bill Nelson. That's about enough, I think. Also, on I-4 billboard in Orlando pictured with the Chimp which proclaims them both "our leaders." Nelson, our other senator (Democrat), is not in the picture, FYI. Oh, and Nelson is up for re-election in 2006, in which his opponent will be Katherine Harris. Someone, please, please help us!
