4. You sure you want to use the word "Present". Maybe Yes, would be better.

17. Yeah, imagine that, a Senator who actually shows to vote instead of sitting on the side lines.
Edited on Sat Feb-02-08 10:00 PM by goldcanyonaz
Can't vote Present when President, or not vote at all.

33. Yes, a Senator who votes FOR war. BOTH times.
Presidents don't vote. They veto. Work on your dyslexia.

39. This isn't a good defense...
...he wasn't in the Senate and he votes to fund/continue the war.

57. I don't use it as an advantage. He was against IWR and she voted for Kyl-Lieberman.
Obama's record is strong enough on its own.

59. Do you even know what the Kyl-Lieberman bill was about... or are just
repeating the meme of weeks ago? Curious minds want to know. What did the Kyl-Lieberman bill actually mean and why was it a vote for war?

You're tired of the Obama bashing? How about all the Hillary bashing?

You had better get used to Obama bashing if he wins the primaries. The Republicans are really going to dish it out. This is just the beginning!
Get used to it!

67. Yep, it's a bill which, among other things, considers the IRG a "terrorist group".
Considering our policy towards terrorists, this is alarming to me, even if it isn't to you.

"You're tired of the Obama bashing? How about all the Hillary bashing?"

I said I was tired of that, too, in this thread's counterpart. Try reading before you attack me.

"You had better get used to Obama bashing if he wins the primaries. The Republicans are really going to dish it out. This is just the beginning! Get used to it!"

Yes, all manner of disgusting attacks have been leveled against Obama under the guise of "the Republicans will use this against him!!!11!!!!". Among them are these.

-Obama dealt and smoked crack.....a lie.

-Obama is a Muslim.....a lie.

-Obama has been accused of wrongdoing regarding Rezko.....a lie.

-Obama is "soft on crime".....a lie, and a right-wing talking point at that.

-Obama supported the IWR.....a lie.

And let's not forget the YouTube nutjob who claimed Obama had oral sex with him. The Shillbots were only too happy to treat that bullshit as legitimate criticism.

I guess the Shillbots think that if they say "The Republicans might use this...", it justifies making up every bullshit smear imaginable.

71. So, you would vote to leave my nephew unprotected in a war zone?
Do you have anyone close to you in Iraq?

Have you talked to them about what will happen if funding stops?

Withdrawal plan FIRST. Fund the withdrawal. DON'T leave my nephew and his unit unprotected.

Besides, if I did it 170 times it would be making a cynical point, though it was actually to simply show the uselessness of such a post.
