Does your Senator believe torture is a good government tool?
Senator McCain sponsored S.AMDT.1977 which moved forward with a 90-9 vote.

Here are the 9 Senators who thought torture should be a part of our government's policy:

Allard (R-CO)
Bond (R-MO)
Coburn (R-OK)
Cochran (R-MS)
Cornyn (R-TX)
Inhofe (R-OK)
Roberts (R-KS)
Sessions (R-AL)
Stevens (R-AK)

What do you think of these patriots?

Cornyn will never, ever, not in a million years vote for anything Bush wants. I'm just surprised Kaye Bailey Hutchinson's not right there with him.

All men. Wonder if I single one of them ever served in the military?

3. I am right there with you
I thought the same thing.

I am suprised that Kaye "I never met a weapons program I didn't like" Hutchinson didn't vote against it.

And don't even get me started on "Clean Air" Barton. That man is a pure disgrace.

4. Will he be re-elected? HOW could he be re-elected....
These are prime areas for dem. grass root efforts like the ones Dean has been inserting across this country. These people need a serious education on what actually IS happening to them, and will continue to get worse for them. They don't know yet HOW bad they are voting against their own best interests.

I don't know whether to feel sorry for them, or smack them upside the head! Geez!

2. I think they are putting us at risk too,
especially our military.

5. Cornyn
Dumber than a box of rocks. So far up the butt of Bushco he might never see the light of day again.

7. I almost had a heart attack when my Sen. SANTORUM...
voted in FAVOR of the McCain amendment!!!!!!!!!!!

He broke party lines! I was shocked.

But then again, for someone so against bestiality, I suppose it makes perfect sense.

9. the senators from my state
Yes, they do. they are not however in any damn way my senators.

Which is why I always ignore the call your senators threads. Because there is no point in talking to those two fuckers.

As for what I think of them;

You know how when you have diahrea and sometimes you don't make it and it trickles down your leg? I treasure those moments more than I do those men.

10. Old whiskey drunk bond does
It really doesn't suprise me though, he was probably so fucked up he didn't know what the hell he was voting on. On the other hand if my suspicions are right he's just a mean ignorant racist mofo.
