Exposing the lack of compassion by conservatives and
debunking right wing hypocrisy at every opportunity.
The Capitulation Bill is now history. Wisely, Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama waited until their votes were not needed, and voted against it. But what about your congress critter.
I was glad to see my Congresswoman, Marcy Kaptur (D - 09) join Dennis Kucinich (D - 10) in refusing to renew Bush's blank check for his war without end. Nor was it a suprise to see Betty Sutton (D - 13) stay true to her principles after authoring a bill which would have begun withdrawing combat troops from Iraq within 90 days, with all of them gone within six months.
Tim Ryan (D - 17) is now officially forgiven (at least as far as I'm concerned) for Pork Chop-Gate because he refused to endorse the Iraq madness any longer.
However, Charles Wilson (D - 06) joins Zack Space (D - 18) on my list (the bad one) for cow-towing to the pressure of being a Democrat in a red district. Zack had already made my list for joining with Mean Jean Schmidt (R - 02) in backing the plan to recycle nuclear waste in Pinkton.
Zack, Charlie, a lot of real Democrats across Ohio fought for you guys. You got some serious problems if you think that catering to the conservatives will help you keep your seats. Get a clue, they hate you anyway. Now you pissed off the rest of us.
Good Luck in '08. You're on your own, at least for now.
Two notes of interest. Stephanie Tubbs-Jones (D - 11) did not vote. (Okay, not so interesting.) What was priceless was watching our own Minority Leader, John Boehner (R - 08) break down and cry like a little Georgie Voinovich right there on the House floor.
Pathetic.
If you'd like to bust the chops of your Congress Critter, look under the flap.
Oh, and one more thing....
Screw You Sherrod Brown. Paul Hackett wouldn't have betrayed us like this.
