Anyone - ANYONE who would vote against this bill is an idiot and really ought to recheck their allegiances - regardless of party affiliation. This is exactly what is wrong with the status quo.

Yup - my statement still stands. Party affiliation has no bearing on my disdain.

Only when it is the other party does it have bearing on your disdain, to make it worthy of your mention.

Sorry Shaw, but there aren't enough Independents holding office for that to matter.

You're an independent?

In that case, my sincerest apologies and a deep bow to signify deference.

Bwaahhaaaa...no thanks! You can register as any damn thing you want: I know a man who is a registered republican (for about 60 years) so he can vote in the primaries against the one with a chance to beat the person of choice in his favored party.

Actions (including years of posts in the political threads) speak louder than registrations.

You should have read Rick Santorum's op-ed piece a few weeks ago equating the extension of the statute of limitations on child abuse with and attack on Christianity.

Ricky is a real piece of shit work.

Well, it does appear that Mr. Franken is in the thick of things. Personally, I think making people who went bankrupt paying for their kids chemotherapy get credit counseling is ridiculous.

He appears to be doing an as good or better job than any of the other clowns I've seen up there.
