8. Not running for re-election
Edited on Sun Mar-21-10 10:33 PM by Auggie
From his website:

I have also been blessed by having a supportive family with my wife Ethie who is my soul mate and the love of my life. And having a great son like King who makes us complete.

“Often, during those 15 years of service, I have had to put aside my personal life to fulfill my obligations as a public servant. I did it happily knowing that I had the support of my family despite often being disappointed when I wasn’t by their side.

“During the past couple of months, Ethie and I have had deep and often emotional conversations giving thanks for our many blessings and setting our priorities as a couple and as parents. It was during these sessions that it became clear to me that the time has come for me to place my family first and my public service career second.

“As many already know, Ethie has been valiantly fighting ovarian cancer for nearly three years. My family needs me, and I intend to be by their side to win this battle.

“It is for this reason that I have decided to not seek reelection to Congress in 2010.

He represents California's 19th -- Central Valley counties and part of the City of Fresno.

3. Censure him. Sorry, but that kind of bullshit should not be tolerated.
Screaming insults at other members is definitely against rules.

Censure or "reprimand" him, like what they did with Joe Wilson.

19. Are you kidding me?
Both the House and Senate have rules regarding when and how persons are allowed to speak. And they have rules about decorum and civility.

All of which were thrown out the window yesterday, and the offending Representative should be held accountable for his behavior.

6. That POS is my 'critter (for a few more months anyway)
He's retiring at the end of the current session. He really has been a do nothing but he's a million times better than the dildo who has carpetbagged into our district to run for Radanovich's seat - Richard :puke:Pombo.

11. We deserve better than common vulgar street thugs
Edited on Sun Mar-21-10 10:40 PM by chill_wind
running our affairs in Congress. Michael Moore was right the other night when he compared the quality of so many of our current public servants to deteriorated copies of copies of copies run off a few generations too many on xerox machines. The degree of intellectual decay has become very depressing.

Fair is fair.

How many Iraqi children died in that war?

23. If you voted for any of the wars, you indeed could be called a baby killer...
...so unless Radanovich comes out and says the babies killed by our weapons don't count since they are alive AND brown AND Muslim, I'll take him to just be another Repig Superstitionalista hellbent on losing.

Plus there is no way that peeps like Radanovich would ever admit that babies were vaporized in Iraq and Afghanistan. That would be the truth.
