"On the very first hour, of the very first day on January 20, 2009, as I have fought for over the last number of years in this administration -- I will restore to the American people, the Constitution of the United States."

"You're gonna get your Constitution back! You're gonna get your Constitution back."

"No more Abu Ghraibs!"

"No more Guantanamos!"

"No more torture!"

"No more rendering!"

"No more providing retroactive immunity for companies that turned over their records to the Bush Administration without a court order!"

"No more waterboarding!"

"No more denying people habeas corpus in this country, a right that has existed for 900 years!"

"And there will be no more Attorney Generals of the United States who believe an American President is above the law."

"That's gonna change."

3. Gotta tell ya, Dodd ranks right up there with Kucinich in my books...
I think he would make a great President or V/P for that matter...

4. I've been leaning toward Dodd since Gore is now out for sure
but I may wind up voting for Edwards in the caucus (if we have one instead of our tainted primary) because I think he has a real chance to beat Hillary here in Michigan. If somehow we wind up with the primary, I'll vote for Dodd because Edwards' name is off the ballot.

How about an Edwards/Obama ticket with Dodd for AG? And Biden for SofS.

5. Chris Dodd would be an excellent Attorney General,
...if he isn't the presidential nominee and wants to leave the Senate.

9. STICK TOGETHER THRU 2008....
I WOULD VOTE FOR DODD....
BUT HE WILL NOT WIN

I WOULD VOTE FOR MR ALIEN K...
BUT HE WILL NOT WIN

I WILL VOTE FOR EDWARDS BECAUSE HE MIGHT WIN...

AND THE I WILL VOTE FOR ANY DEMOCRAT FROM OBAMA TO CLINTON, FROM RICHARDSON TO ANYONE...

IF WE STICK TOGETHER AND ONLY VOTE DEMOCRATIC... WE WILL OWN THE HOUSE AND SENATE...

AND YOU WILL SEE A LOT MORE LEFT-LEANING IN CONGRESS AND IN THE PRESIDENT
WHEN WE HAVE SOME SPOILS TO DIVIDE


......PLEASE QUOTE ME OFTEN ON THIS...
THE REPUBLICANS WIN AND THEN DIVIDE THE SPOILS
THE DEMOCRATS DIVIDE AND THEN WIN NOTHING
--------------THIS HAS GOT TO END IN 2008

10. Thanks. Just got this in an e-mail also. I got on the Dodd list due to his FISA stance.

12. Balances the CT Karma
Kinda makes up for Kissiface. Proud to call Mr. Dodd, my Senator.

The sad thing is that someone who stands up vs torture and who defends the Constitution is looked at as a hero these days ...how very friggin sad.
