Day #3-Kennedy's office with NO support for Russ Feingold
He still hasn't given an opinion"
I asked why "I don't know"

me-"Well he'd better make up his mind soon as I'm going to
start looking for another candidate, One with backbone!"
This is an election year for Mr. Kennedy

her- "okay can I have your zipcode"

What is the problem Teddy?

1. I would never say Kennedy doesn't have a backbone
that is just not right.

4. Strangely so.
I'm wondering if there is something going on in the back hallways that will be revealed at a later date. *shrug*

14. I agree, it is strange and I wonder the same thing.
In a thread earlier here I think Patcox2 made a rather good point <snip>"Don't interrupt your opponent when he is punching himself in the face.<snip>When your opponent is making a fool of himself, don't interrupt, its an old saying amongst lawyers.

Bush is screwing up everything and his public support is evaporating. Attacking someone almost always brings out some sympathy and raises the support somewhat. Leave him to continue to demonstrate his own incompetence.

5. Keep calling and implying that inaction makes the Senator an accomplice...
...to a felony.

7. good point. I wrote Harry Reid, too.
Dear Senator Reid,
I am writing to you today because I want to ask you to stand with Senator Feingold in his call for censure.

I reject the notion that the Senator is out of the mainstream. Qite the opposite; I think he (and now Senators Harkin and Boxer) are among the few that have the nerveand principle to speak for Us, the mainstream.
It seems to me that toomany of our Electeds spend more time worrying about holding on to their jobs than doing them.


I find it laughable whenever I hear someone like Senator frist suggest that Senator Feingold is making a "political move" in his call for censure. What on earth then, was the years-long investigation of President Clinton?
Does frist actually expect us to believe his push to bring down President Clinton was anything other than political?

Please, Senator Reid, please consider listening to the voice of We the People and taking a chance on bold, tough leadership.
Please don't try to take a neutral stance. That has clearly not been working.

With your leadership you could turn the ship around and get our country out of dangerous waters.

Thank you,

Mr & Mrs Eek

13. Nice job...
...and long time no see! :hi:

I have to laugh that a politician is surprised that a politician is doing something political.

And, as another astute observer pointed out, the suggestion that Feingold's move is "political" implies by its very nature that it's popular.

Good to see you. Keep calling!

NGU.

17. The picayune coverage he's getting in Milwaukee press
is reprehensible.

How the heck can any of these Pink TuTus or MSM continue to peddle the falsehood that Russ-n-Us are out of the mainstream when aWol is in the 30's approval range.
Oh - and the 48% that apparently want him impeached!

Yeah: pretty outsider stuff, huh?




Hi back atcha CW!

8. Woah, Woah, Woah...
Teddy has lots of backbone... that's my Senator. They don't call him the Liberal Lion for nothin'.

I'll be calling him though to see what's going on.

15. Mine too! But I'm not playing nice anymore
Voted him all my voting life. But I'm going to
start a fire anywhere I can to save democracy-
while I still have the fight.
