I watched a bunch of republicans make fools of themselves. I told them they came off like bullies and they didn't seem to want the truth but just making points to make her look bad but ended up making themselves look bad. Also if they wanted to look for blame they should look at themselves because they haven't funded the state properly. She was there for soluations and the republicans were there for political points. It didn't work.

This is the same bunch who talked America into a bloody invasion and occupation of Iraq based on outright lies and a neocon (PNAC) wet dream. NO on believes they have ANY credibility on defense or FP anymore.

GOOD for you, southernyankeebelle for being so proactive and speaking your mind to your congress critters!

I let them know they are whinny babies. Last time I called I told the aide I was embarrassed for the whole republican delegation. They never know what to say.
