What was the MOST dispicable comment in the senate today?
My vote goes to Senator Kit Bond (Fascist-MO). I don't have the exact words but to paraphrase - "If the insurgents had a representative in the Senate, they would vote for this measure. Now I'm not saying that those on the other side support the insurgents, but......."

Have you no shame.

1. yeah well, it's a good thing I'm not a senator...
...because I'd have stood up and asked him what part of defending one's homeland from forced foreign occupation he doesn't think "the other side" should support?

3. I didn't hear any of it, BUT
If anyone took the floor and identified themselves as a republican that would have taken the prize.

4. the senate will come to order
every phony charade that pretends to be our "government" is an insult to American patriots.

5. Re:
That's all they've got - fear-mongering about anyone that disagrees with them.

I'm not sure I agree with calling all Republicans "fascists". I don't want to argue about it, but just remember that the people we criticize are Senate/House Republicans, not Joe Sixpack down the street.

7. Ya know...I often wonder WHY we don't have all-out BRAWLS on the Senate
and House floors? How the hell do the Dems stop themselves from beating the living shit out of the repukes who say these DESPICABLE things??? They need the crap beaten out of them. They really do. :grr: I wonder if they ever have 'words' for each other after their little tirades?

I know they can't do that (beat the shit out of them) because the KKKRove MSM would SKEWER the Dems, but.....it sure would be nice to have those bastards put in their places.:(

8. I think the repubs do it
because the dems never, ever fight back. While I would love to see Dick Durbin kick Pat Roberts in the nuts, I think that calling them on their false choices and straw man arguments would be a good start.
