If anyone of the above is your "representative", email him/her and give 'em hell. I'm so fucking angry right now I'm afraid of what I might type.

These people need to GO. Whenever the next primaries are, they need to GO. This is all beside thee point that they should've filibustered.

They just gave chimpy the power to define torture however he wants it. THINK ABOUT THAT FOR A SECOND. I am disgusted beyond belief. This is the most despicable thing I've ever seen.

:grr: :grr: :grr: :grr: :grr: :grr: :grr: :grr: :grr: :grr: :grr: :grr: :grr: :grr: :grr: :grr: :grr: :grr: :grr: :grr: :grr: :grr: :grr: :grr: :grr: :grr: :grr: :grr: :grr: :grr: :grr: :grr: :grr: :grr: :grr: :grr: :grr: :grr: :grr: :grr: :grr: :grr: :grr: :grr: :grr: :grr: :grr: :grr: :grr: :grr: :grr:

FUCK THESE BASTARDS

I don't care what they do from here on out. I don't care if they say sorry later on. Next primary: GET THE FUCK OUT OF THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY.

:grr:

I have to take a walk. Christ I'm pissed! :grr::grr::grr::grr:

1. I've already resolved:
If we don't gain back control of at least one house of Congress, that the entire Democratic leadership needs to get the Lieberman treatment.

We have the technology to throw the bums out.

Seven House Republicans voted No today. I salute them.



Thirty-four House Democrats voted Aye. I salute them, too.

4. Fuck Bean.
I'm not sure I can stomach voting for her. :puke: I'd never vote for McWeenie, but she's not much better, IMHO.

5. Bean (IL-08) has to vote for things like this to keep her seat
She is the most vulnerable incumbent Democrat in the House, her district voted 60% for Bush in 2004.

If you want another vote for Speaker Pelosi, these are the types of Democrats you have to accept.

8. Bean is my congresswoman
And I'll be damned if real slime like McSweeney ends of representing me because "true Democrats" think that they can have someone like Schakowsky in this district, Bean is the best we can get.

17. Its called being a realist.
Edited on Wed Sep-27-06 05:37 PM by tritsofme
Districts that vote 60% for Bush usually don't elect Democrats, let alone progressive Democrats.

I'll take what I can get, and work toward a Democratic majority in the House.

11. Next primary may be too late
Americans, even Democratic ones, have often proven to be all too forgetful. We need to hit these pro-torture Dems now.

22. What you DON'T do is say "Well, gee, I support your pro-torture stand..."
Unfortunately, the only primary left is in Louisiana. But you can bring these Democratic compromisers to account for this supremely stupid vote in support of torture. And you should. Make them beg on their knees for your vote.

12. I will not vote....
For anyone who has voted for torture.

Those who have voted for it are evil. EVIL. Reptiles all of them. The spineless enablers of this evil administration have sold their souls in blind obedience to their ape like master.

I will not sell mine.

A vote for any of these spineless cretins is a vote for torture and evil. Worse still, a vote in support for those who support the anti-christ Bush.

I will not vote for them. If I cannot find a human being on the ballot, I simply not vote for the office.

13. We can get rid of two of them in November
The courts ruled that Delay's gerrymandering violated the Voting Rights Act. As such, 5 districts have non-partisan all-up elections this November 7th. One of those is Henry Cuellar's district, here's his Democratci opponent:

http://www.frankenriquez.com/

And there are no Republicans running for this seat, so there's no excuse.


And as for Melancon, with Louisiana's Open Primary system, you can vote for another Democrat:

23. Then make the offending Dems beg the voters for forgiveness
Otherwise, I'm drafting resolutions for the 2008 campaign to freeze pro-torture Democrats out of the Texas machine.

25. If we don't act now, there won't BE a Democratic majority in the House
I want a majority, too. But we have to do it right, because there may not be a chance to do it over.
