1. And therefore his feel should be held to the fire as any other! No passes as nominee!
Edited on Thu Jun-26-08 11:50 AM by saracat

21. Want to see my rants about Clinton? But I did support her at the end
Edited on Thu Jun-26-08 01:44 PM by saracat
when she was one of the last two standing. But I was NEVER an apologist.

6. Funny, that. Just not seeing that criticism of the others. And I've
browsed all over DU trying to find it. It ain't there.

19. Because the others aren't the nominee? And in his position of influence? And most of the others
who were against FISA were the 15 who remained against it.The others who support it should be ashamed as well.

7. It is sad how grief has twisted some people around here, isn't it?
Sad. Yet kind of entertaining, like watching the geek at the freak show.

And then you feel a little bit dirty after watching it. :)

15. Quick: how did Sen. Klobuchar vote on FISA? How about Sen. Murray? Sen. Cardin? Sen. Bingaman?
Edited on Thu Jun-26-08 12:51 PM by Occam Bandage
Sen. Carper? Sen. Mullen? Sen. Wyden?

Did you notice that I totally made up one of those Senators?

16. And what of Senators...
Edited on Thu Jun-26-08 01:00 PM by LowerManhattanite
Dewey, Cheatum and Howe? And those gol-darned “Blue dogs” Sens. Howard, Fine and Howard?

Their feet must be held to the fire to where their sock garters melt painfully to their skin! Harrumph! Harrumph!:)

17. The first time it came up last summer she voted for it
Then, after getting an earful from Minnesotans, she voted against it the next time it came up. As of yesterday, her staff wouldn't say how she'd vote - but she is getting another earful.
