My list of the Top 10 Worst GOP Senators
Edited on Wed Oct-07-09 12:48 PM by Ardent15
In no order

Jim DeMint
James Inhofe
Tom Coburn
Jeff Sessions
Richard Shelby
Jon Kyl
John Cornyn
John Ensign
Saxby Chambliss
Mitch McConell

I had to leave out a few, like Lindsey Graham and Jim Bunning, but your list may include them.

1. There's quite a few Dems missing from that list.
Baucus, Lincoln, Nelson... I could go on.

9. No their not, they are 10 times worse.

We put them there to do the peoples work. They are Dems in name only. I expect an enemy to stab me int he back, not someone who is supposed to be on my side.

I stick by what I say, 10 times worse.

5. I'd include Pat Roberts on that list. You know, the Senator that wanted 72 hours...
...so his lobbyists could look over the HCR bill.

6. Good call. This is why it's so hard to narrow it down to 10.
There are dozens of GOP wingnuts in the Senate.

Honorable (or not) mention to him.

7. bohring.
Aren't those all Republicans? What about Baucus? What about Lincoln? Tim Johnson? Byron Dorgan? Herb Kohl? Roland Burris?

Those are the ones with no conscience who make cowards of us all. Those are the ones who make 60 the most meaningless number. It is their lack of regard that legislation of great pith and moment gets turned awry.

Or something like that. Alas, I have forgotten my Hamlet and refuse to google.

10. I'd certainly put Kyl on there instead of Bunning.
Edited on Wed Oct-07-09 12:49 PM by iceman66
Kyl is a truly evil bastard, Bunning is an otherwise harmless flake who unfortunately votes in lockstep with his party.

11. The absence of Chuck-You Grassley is a GLARING omission.
