Did your Democratic Senator vote for Condi Rice?

[Cascadian]

And are you mad about it? I am sorry to say that both Destinguished Ladies from my state of Washington voted this lying jackal Miss Rice (or is it Mrs. Bush? lol!!) as the Sec. of State. I am very very disappointed and it is looking highly likely that Maria Cantwell will not be getting my support in 2006. I will either be supporting another Democrat who challenges her (I hope it happens!) or a third party candidate.

So go on and vent your rage here!


John

[Arkana]

1. John Kerry and Ted Kennedy

and neither of them voted for the Abomination!

[wicket]

32. howdy neighbor

:D

[Arkana]

35. Hi there, friend! Some weather we're having, eh?

[wicket]

37. I HATE on-street parking this time of year!!!

Heh :)

[hyphenate]

61. Amen!

And I know Boxer didn't as well, from my second home state of California.

Whatdoyaknow--both of my states have ballsy Senators. I hope we see more of the likes of Teddy and John here in Mass for a long time to come, and that Barbara Boxer continues to represent the best of California. Feinstein can go--perhaps Sheila Kuhl could take her place at some point? :evilgrin:

[shadowknows69]

72. any room in Mass.

Clinton and Schumer can bite me

[wicket]

2. Both of mine voted against her (Kennedy and Kerry)

[Kerrytravelers]

7. In CA

Boxer -NO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Feinstein - yea... what a coward. I can't stand her.

[knight_of_the_star]

80. Ditto

Damn Boxer is one ballsy woman compared to a lot of MEN in the Senate.

[biscodawg]

83. tell Feinstein how you feel about her vote

at http://feinstein.senate.gov/email.html I just did and it felt pretty good :evilgrin:

[Cobalt Violet]

3. Kennedy and Kerry here too!

[Cascadian]

6. Cheers to Ted and John.

They made the right decision!


John

[gristy]

4. Here's how they voted

www.senate.gov/legislative/LIS/roll_call_lists/roll_call_vote_cfm.cfm?congress=109&session=1&vote=00002

The nays were

Akaka
Bayh
Boxer
Byrd
Dayton
Durbin
Harkin
Jeffords
Kennedy
Kerry
Lautenberg
Levin
Reed

Just 13? I thought I read that 17 voted against...

[paineinthearse]

5. Sorry to disappoint...........

Both of mine voted NOOOOOO!!!!!

Kennedy and Kerry.

Other states, get to work.

[Mira]

16. Burr and Dole - need I say more - NC has no democratic senator

any more.
I don't want to seem ungrateful, there were 12 Democratic votes against this abomination of a nomination - but what about Clinton, for instance. First she votes for the war, and now this!

Not one single solitary Republican capable of admitting disgust and having the courage to admit to having a conscience.

A sad day.

[Greylyn58]

81. You beat me to it

Unfortunately NC doesn't have a Dem Senator. AAARRRGGHHH!!!

I miss Senator Edwards.... :(

[WindRavenX]

8. sadly..yes...

...Ron Wyden of OR voted for Condi.
How disapointing. ;(

[stevedeshazer]

50. I'm very bummed about that

I just don't see what Wyden had to lose by voting no. He was just re-elected by a wide margin, it's not like he had to sneak it through.

[livinginphotographs]

9. *snarf*

Democratic Senator? What's that? I haven't seen one of those around these parts in a while.

For the record, BOTH my repub senators (John Warner and the too-despicable-for-words George Allen) voted yes. :puke:

[Robbien]

10. Vent some of that rage over to the Senator's offices

Email, fax and call. They need to know you are displeased.

[Cascadian]

11. I am working on that!

eom


John

[AlCzervik]

12. The good one didn't, the Dino did

[Sleepless In NY]

29. both.. Schumer and Clinton..nay ...& sadly I'm not surprised

I've called both of their offices so many times, I know their numbers by heart. And it's always a waste of time. Calling to complain will do no good. Just waiting for Hillary to run, If there is another dem running I'll vote for him or her,if not, I wont vote. It's the only to get either one of them to pay attention.

[Sleepless In NY]

30. make that "aye" .....wishful thinking

sorry about that, upset tonite.

[jazzjunkysue]

43. I've already told both NY whores that I'm voting against them next time.If

they're going to vote republican, we might as well give their seats to a republican, no?

[Sleepless In NY]

45. jazzjunkysue.... exactly

wish it wasn't true, but it is, not much difference.

[leftynyc]

68. Same here - in fact

I used to feel bad for not voting for Hilary the first time - I sat out that race (first time I EVER did that). Just didn't trust her and now I'm sure I did the right thing. I couldn't vote puke but I wont vote for her or Chuck now.

[shadowknows69]

73. the people answering their phones

couldn't even tell me where they stood on the issues. Still waiting for a promised written response from Schumer about the Ohio electorate vote. :eyes:

[jazzjunkysue]

78. Hold your breath, and wait.....

[latteromden]

13. NO, and I'm damn proud to say it! Mark Dayton's got some fight in him yet!

And just when we were all starting to give up on him.

[rox63]

14. Another happy MA resident

Because both Kerry and Kennedy voted NO!

:yourock: :kick:

[Crowdance]

15. Clinton and Schumer chickenshit yeas.

disgusting. I want my donations back.

[neebob]

Yes, apparently

It's Ken Salazar. Boy, am I glad I voted for him!

[KamaAina]

17. Akaka came through, Inouye didn't.

How very odd. Remember, Inouye rose to prominence by denounicng the repuke lies of an earlier generation at the Watergate hearings.

Akaka, meanwhile, apparently drew some parallels to the oppression of the Hawaiian people. I really need to get a transcript of that!

[AuntiBush]

18. Embarrased to admit..

and madder than all... mine voted "yea" from the state of Maryland.

Mikulski
Sarbanes (and he was up there w/a chart to point out her lies!)

I'll be rethinking my vote next time around!

[KitchenWitch]

19. Mine voted against Sleeza

But my repug senator voted for her.

[oldtime dfl_er]

20. I'm with ya Cascadian

I can kind of understand Cantwell, she's highly vulnerable in '06. But Murray, there's just no excuse!

www.cafepress.com/showtheworld

[Cleita]

21. Dianne Feinstein did. Barbara Boxer didn't.

eom

[Nik Jam]

57. Same here.

Wish I was 18 last year so I could have voted for Boxer. My first election will be Schwarzaneggar vs ____ and Feinstein vs _____, and of course the former is a given but I'm not voting for either.

[superconnected]

22. I'm from washington state too

and yes, my democratic senators sold me out, I should add "again".

Am I ticked, oh that's too nice of a word.

[Cascadian]

27. I am just too disgusted and disappointed.

I must admit that I voted for the Green candidate this past election for the Senate and now I am kind of glad I did. I am afraid that Cantwell is not going to get any of my support either.

I sure wished old Warren Magnuson was still around! I am sure he would have given a "nay" on this one!


John

[Democrat Dragon]

23. Yes and no

I'm form California!

GO BOXER! Slug Gonzasshole just like ya did on Contradicta Lies!

As for Swinestein....:puke:

[NightTrain]

24. Dodd and Lieberman both did, the bastards.

[politicaholic]

25. I was all out suprised. Then mad! Then a little hungry. Then MAD again!

I can't believe it! Especially Cantwell. She's such a nice woman in person how would I know that she could be so incredibly stupid.

What are we in Seattle & WA as a whole going to lose if she votes against Dr. Rice?

They in DC know we're a blue state. We get ignored anyway for merely being up here in the middle of nowhere.

I hope another dem runs against her.

[superconnected]

31. hungry?

so if I eat something, I might get a little less... pyschotically so mad that if I saw her in the street I may only swever to miss her by a quarter inch.

okay, I'll try food. I think it's going to take alchohol though. When I come out of it, I'm likely to be still more-than-angry though.

[politicaholic]

36. Is there anything alcohol can't do?

I mean, other than help you drive.

If I were you I would try meditation...

In with the goooooood,
Out with the baaaaaad.

OHM...OHMMMMM

Then when you have that transendental reaction you can leave your body, go to Olympia, and smother her with her pillow.

See?

You get relaxed, you get revenge, and they DON'T get your license plate #.

wooohooo!

[oasis]

26. Dan Akaka (no) ; Dan Inouye (yes). I've tons of respect for both senators

They vote the right way when it counts.

[kohodog]

28. Lieberman, Dodd: yea

:puke: :puke: :puke: :puke: :puke: :puke: :puke: :puke: :puke: :puke: :puke: :puke: :puke:

I didn't bother to write Loserman and he'll probably support torture too. (Gonlalez)

Dodd wrote back with the "president should be able to choose his cabinet" bs. Hitler picked his too.

They are both off my radar screen. We need to elect some politicians with conscience.

[Cascadian]

33. Your state deserve better than the clowns you have!

Which viable Nutmeggers can challenge Sleeperman and Dudd?

John

[kohodog]

40. Not really sure who will take a true progressive stance.

But there is growing sentiment to replace Lieberman. We're beginning to organize locally and start the discussion. Rosa Dilauro might be a good option though. She's no longer in my district, but is a great representative.

[Bjornsdotter]

34. One did, one didn't

Durbin voted "no"

Obama voted "yes"

Both received phone calls and letters from me within the hour of the vote.

Cheers,
Kim

[indypaul]

38. Evan Bayh (D-IN)

Voted no and we thank him. Richard Lugar (R-IN) I think
bit his tounge and voted for the "miserable failure".

[salin]

92. I was pleasantly surprised by Bayh!

Had as many senators against Condi here, as I would have had, had I stayed in my last home state of California.

[ChicanoPwr]

39. The Democrats who said yes here is the break down.

Democrats Yes=

Baucus, Mont.; Biden, Del.; Bingaman, N.M.; Cantwell, Wash.; Carper, Del.; Clinton, N.Y.; Conrad, N.D.; Corzine, N.J.; Dodd, Conn.; Dorgan, N.D.; Feingold, Wis.; Feinstein, Calif.; Inouye, Hawaii; Johnson, S.D.; Kohl, Wis.; Landrieu, La.; Leahy, Vt.; Lieberman, Conn.; Lincoln, Ark.; Mikulski, Md.; Murray, Wash.; Nelson, Fla.; Nelson, Neb.; Obama, Ill.; Pryor, Ark.; Reid, Nev.; Rockefeller, W.Va.; Salazar, Colo.; Sarbanes, Md.; Schumer, N.Y.; Stabenow, Mich.; Wyden, Ore.

I can not believe Obama said yes.

As for me, I am not surprise, I live in Texas, enough said.

[superconnected]

44. Clinton!

Oh, bad Hillary, bad bad.

[tsuki]

46. Nelson's up for re-election in '06. Maybe this will get him the

Republican vote. But he sure lost the democratic vote.

[DoYouEverWonder]

89. Until Nelson has a change of heart

he will never get my vote again.

The DEMS better start looking for some one to take his place on the ticket, if they even want to have half a chance of keeping his seat.

[Biased Liberal Media]

90. I am so disappointed in Murray (D-WA)

Ugh. From what I have read it doesn't surprise me that Cantwell did...but Murray?? God, what am I missing?

[Goddess Nephthis]

41. I am from Texas!

Both my senators prostrated themselves, crawled to Cawn-deez feet and kissed her boots. Just like I expected. Sickening, isn't it?

[newyawker99]

65. Hi Goddess Nephthis!!

Welcome to DU!! :toast:

[efhmc]

74. Hate to say it but I would take any Democratic senator, even if they

voted for condi, over our 2 creeps.

[Reverend_Smitty]

42. 1 did and 1 didn't

Frank Lautenburg didn't but Corzine did...I'm disappointed in Corzine!

[latteromden]

48. Lautenberg is awesome. His tribute to the fallen soldiers in Iraq outside

his Senate office is very touching.

[Reverend_Smitty]

53. I love Lautenburg...

I wish he wasn't retiring after his term

[Sal Minella]

47. I sent a wildly enthusiastic thank-you e-mail to my Senator

I did not think Harkin had the balls to do that, but he did!!!
The other is a Rethug.

[UTUSN]

49. Democratic Senator?!----------What's THAT?! n/t

[Pastiche423]

51. Mine voted for her

He also voted for the '03 medicare bill.

He did not reply to my questions wrt to that bill.

He was up for re-election this past November.

I did not vote for him.

I voted for the Green candidate.

[RetroLounge]

52. Nope, Feingold(D-WI) and Kohl (D - WI)

both voted Aye.

I'm just disgusted with that vote.

RL

[kath]

54. Can't believe that only THIRTEEN had the guts to vote against her.

I'm so sick of the lameass Dems.

[More Than A Feeling]

55. Dick Durbin, you rock!

Barack Obama, you get a pass because you are new around here.

[zmdem]

56. Yes, from Oregon

Sen. Wyden voted to confirm. On this matter, I agree with Sen. Feingold and therefore agree with Sen. Wyden

[Roxy66]

70. Wyden Confirmed?!!! What was he thinking!!!! Why?!

[Roxy66]

71. Where can I find the list?

[Jokinomx]

58. My Senator is Carl Levin and I am very proud to say he was among the few

that voted "NO"!!!!!!!!!!

[Cozmosis]

59. Yeah :( Mikulski and Sarbanes

[DemGirl7]

60. Sadly both my senators voted for her...and I'm mad...

the Senators from NY are chickenshits and I feel bad because I voted for both of them...they embarrass me.

[ElsewheresDaughter]

62. yes and i will work hard towards replacing them both hillary & chuckie

[Petrushka]

63. Byrd, yes --- Carpetbagger, no [eom]

[Tierra_y_Libertad]

64. I notified Cantwell that I'll be voting Green in '06.

That was after her vote for the war. Her latest sell-out, just fortifies that decision.

I've been a fan of Murray's since I move to WA 12 years ago. This vote was very disappointing. I'll be closely watching any future votes concerning the war.

[Biased Liberal Media]

91. Murray really disappointed me

Cantwell I could see it happening...but Murray?? Geez...

[RUDUing2]

66. my republican senators did ..and I am sick but unsurprised...

Kit Bond and Jim (minime Ashcroft) Talent.

[spanone]

67. Both of mine are serious rethugs. Frist & Alexander...guess their votes!

[Acryliccalico]

69. Durbin..........NO, Obama.........yes

[peekaloo]

75. I wish I had a Dem to chastise......Cornholio and Kay Beetle Bailey

HairDo represent me. x(

[truebrit71]

76. One did (Barack O'Sellout) and one didn't Dick Durbin.

Obama is on VERY thin ice with me....right out of the gate he acts like a DINO...

Senator Durbin on the other hand does all Illinoisans proud once again.

[deutsey]

77. Sarbanes and Mikulski voted yes

Very disappointed in them.

[Jack Rabbit]

79. I live in California . . .

. . . and I am proud of Senator Boxer.

As for Senator Feinstein, I hope somebody launches a primary challenge against her.

[deadparrot]

82. Heh, Democratic Senator. You're funny.

[PassingFair]

84. Yes and No.

Brilliant and beautiful Carl Levin votes NO.
Formerly wonderful and vibrant Debbie Stabenow votes YES.

Debbie is getting an e-mail from me that is not as nice as the one that I sent to Mr. Levin. And she has made me proud in the past....must be that pesky DLC bug she picked up.

[6000eliot]

85. NJ here

1 yea 1 nay, I think.

[Vadem]

86. I'll vent my rage against Repub Senators Warner and Allen of VA....

I called them to vote no, but what a laugh!!!! I would love to have a Democratic Senator such as Barbara Boxer, Carl Levin, Ted Kennedy, etc. I'll still keep calling them and asking them to vote for the Dems (Good Luck!.

[Hippo_Tron]

87. Landrieu, YES and I don't think that it was with good intentions

But I don't care, Landrieu gets elected and this is the deep south. I look to other senators to actually stand for something.

[ProudToBeBlueInRhody]

88. Jack Reed voted no

Best Senator in the US.
