Look at all these rethug lites who voted for the Patriot Act and No Child Left Behind!
Now they say they are against it! Can you trust any of these folks? Not me my friends. I demand a politician who has been right on every issue. If something passes 98-1 or 91-8 it is obvious to any sane person it is deeply flawed bill. Why did these folks all sellout? :mad:

8. Not all votes are equal. The most important vote any of them had to cast
probably in their career was the IWR. That's the fucking bottom line for me- and millions of others.

12. Holy shit! You mean there was actually something bad that Landrieu didn't vote for??
I mean, she didn't vote against it either, but still...... for her that's really unusual.
