2. Some highlights: Kerry nay, Boxer nay, Feingold nay. Clinton nay. Dodd, nay.
Biden stayed out of it, so did Obama.

19. Ditto
And I liked, when I went to his website for issue papers, that his were pages long. Haven't read them yet, but just the fact that he'd included so much detail was interesting to me. Full of ideas, it seems.

11. And they wonder
why 9 out of 10 americans think that Congress as a whole is in the shitter. What a waste of time, a vote designed for one purpose: vote NAY, stand accused of not supporting our armed forces.

20. This is the vote that mattered: Boxer's amendment
The Democrats voted for it and the Republicans voted against it: Boxer's amendment

Senate condemns MoveOn ad — but not all attacks on the troops
Posted September 20th, 2007 at 1:02 pm

Senate Republicans decided this week that they would not allow votes on substantive bills relating to Bush’s Iraq policy, but they will push a resolution condemning MoveOn.org for questioning the credibility of a general executing Bush’s Iraq policy. As of a few minutes ago, the gambit worked.

For procedural reasons, the Senate GOP was able to force its MoveOn resolution onto the floor this afternoon, but Senate Dems made it a little tougher for members by offering an alternative resolution. Sen. Barbara Boxer (D-Calif.) sponsored a measure that condemned all political attacks on U.S. troops. That included the “Betray Us” ad, but it also included smearing John Kerry in 2004 and attacks on Max Cleland in 2002.

It was a compelling pitch. If Republicans are outraged by criticism of those who serve in the Armed Forces, is their disgust equal-opportunity, or are they only bothered by criticism of those they perceive as being on their “side”? Are they concerned about one newspaper ad, or about the broader issue of besmirching others who wear the uniform?

Alas, Republicans are more narrowly focused, and were unwilling to criticize attacks levied by their own.

When Boxer’s amendment came to the floor, it needed 60 votes to pass. Republicans, regrettably, voted against the measure.

I respect all Democrats who voted for Boxer's amendment. I respect those Democrats who voted against Cornyn's amendment. But they should have underscored Boxer's by wiping their asses with Cornyn's and REFUSED TO VOTE, because the Repukes were disrespecting the military with this one-sided amendment.

21. Wake Up Folks
What more do you need before you believe the system is broke?

Nearly everyone of them need to go...now...

Why vote for any of the leading candidates? Or incumbents
