John Warner, you've fooled me for the last time..
Hey John, what's with the precipitous withdrawal of your support of the troops? What's with the cutting and running from your "good friend" Jim Webb? Heck of a way to leave your buddy in the foxhole there, pal.

Screw you and your "courtly" and flowery rhetoric which serves only your attempts to make it look like you have some integrity.

Hey John, what happened to: "We simply cannot as a nation stand and put our troops at continuous risk of loss of life and limb without beginning to take some decisive action which will get everybody's attention". Or how about this: "I hope in the recesses of your heart that you know that strategy will continue the casualties, stress on our forces, stress on military families, stress on all Americans."

So what did the repukes do to change your mind? Did they stick you in the Senate cloakroom and shine a bright light in your eyes? Did they threaten you with the food in the Senate staff cafeteria?

Hey John, you don't fool me anymore. You couldn't give a rat's ass about our troops. The only right thing you've done in my eyes is agreed to step down. You are no longer worthy of representing our Commonwealth. You've lost your way, John. You're nothing but a two-bit hack for your Party and for your idiotic addict in chief.

You disgust me, and I will no longer trust anything you say. Good riddance to you, sir.

1. I missed all of yesterday.
I see the result today and I am not happy. Can you fill me in on Warner if you have time?

5. He sandbagged Webb..
he sent McCain over five minutes before the vote to tell Webb he wasn't voting for it. If I was Webb, I'd kick his ass, I don't care if he is 80 years old....:mad:

2. Having lived in VA for the better part of my adult life...
the only good thing I've ever had to say about John Warner is that he opposed and stuck to his opposition of Oliver North, thus helping to secure Chuck Robb one more term as Senator. After that, he backed "Macaca" Allen.

I've never trusted that two-faced piece of shit. He never was worthy to be a US Senator.

7. A fitting description of a hack who does hack jobs. A 200% phoney.

16. I understand now the reason he's not running..
Mark Warner would have handed him a humiliating defeat. He's going to stick his nose up Bush's ass and keep voting to continue the slaughter. So much for a "distinguished" career.

10. Well, I took the liberty of sending him an e-mail just now
telling him that, as a former citizen of the Commonwealth of Virginia, I was interested in what one of his constitutents had to say...giving credit where I found this letter (not mentioning your screen name), and told him it matched my sentiments to a T.

So, he got it. But, I hope you send it to him personally. I've never liked that two-faced rat.

15. Every time one of these things happen.....
and it happens on both sides of the aisle and very often, I have to believe that the individual has been threatened by this illegal cabal. Either vote our way or say goodbye to certain selected loved ones. What would you do if these bastards threatened your family with death or worse. They have the capability for rendition and torture. Would you chance it?

17. He may well have been "convinced".
Check this out:

http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2007/09/19/AR2007091902153.html

(snip)

But then, Warner explained how officials at the Pentagon had convinced him that Webb was wrong to try to extend troops' rest times. "I say to my good friend from Virginia, I agree with the principles that you've laid down in your amendment, but," he concluded, "I regret to say that I've been convinced by those in the professional uniform."

Nah. He's just a slimy, two-faced, piece of shit.

if someone ordered a hit on his family, he could (and would) return the favor.

28. I believe there are tiers of
evil and at the top, they have Blackwater at their disposal. And, if the whole truth were known, there are, more than likely, more evil entities than even BW. No, I believe that Warner is just a pawn to be used and tossed away when his usefulness is up.
