Response to Original message |
| 20. thank you cali for this thread. i agree. he was one of the few republicans |
|
i could respect, regardless of differing views. a republican i would have liked to see work with a dem congress. too few republicans would do that. or criticize wrong, even/especially in their own party.
and it was his party that took him down for that. (thinking of one on our side, lol)

The reason he didn't do it was out of loyalty to the Rhode Island Republican Party |
