Apologies to Kerry/Edwards concerning Ashcroft, head in sand
Edited on Thu Jan-29-04 01:00 PM by digno dave
Sorry, but John Kerry and John Edwards f'd up big time when they voted to confirm John Ashcroft. I didn't need to see Ashcroft's reaction to 9/11 to know he was a zealot with a Confederate agenda.
"Evil Chemistry and Evil Biology"? Give me a break. How about "Evil Attorney".
Sorry, but when it was nut-cuttin' time these two failed us.

Addendum:

SORRY, apparently i was wrong. I share responsibility for this mistake with BARTCOP:

It also reminds me that Kerry and Edwards KNEW Ashcroft was religiously insane when they
confirmed him to be a blood-thirsty "Angel of Death" for the never-elected deserter. Each time Kerry
says he'll get rid of Ashcroft, I remember he failed to block that abortion of common sense.


Humbly request your forgiveness. When i saw this it got my blood boiling. I should have verified.

5. Russ Feingold voted to confirm Ashcroft
He is my senator. He allowed the nomination to pass through committee. He voted to confirm. I was mad. A lot of us were mad. We made our displeasure known.

Still love the guy. Will campaign for him. Will give him money.

I think if we tried to sort through every Senator, Congressperson and presidential nominee through their "unacceptable" actions, we'd have no one left.

7. Another smear
Edwards did NOT vote to confirm Ashcroft.

Get your facts straight before you take the podium, my friend.

10. I wonder if these people
with such flaws in their data have put the same amount of brainpower in their choice for nominee? Pretty scary.
