You were right the first time.

Shawnee123 · 10-20-2009, 12:54 PM

30 voted against it. All republicans. Just sayin'

classicman · 10-21-2009, 12:55 PM

Yup - my statement still stands. Party affiliation has no bearing on my disdain.

Shawnee123 · 10-21-2009, 12:59 PM

Only when it is the other party does it have bearing on your disdain, to make it worthy of your mention.

classicman · 10-21-2009, 03:02 PM

Sorry Shaw, but there aren't enough Independents holding office for that to matter.

Shawnee123 · 10-21-2009, 03:06 PM

You're an independent?

In that case, my sincerest apologies and a deep bow to signify deference.

classicman · 10-21-2009, 03:43 PM

Wanna check my registration? WTF?

Shawnee123 · 10-21-2009, 03:46 PM

Bwaahhaaaa...no thanks! You can register as any damn thing you want: I know a man who is a registered republican (for about 60 years) so he can vote in the primaries against the one with a chance to beat the person of choice in his favored party.

Actions (including years of posts in the political threads) speak louder than registrations.

He appears to be doing an as good or better job than any of the other clowns I've seen up there.

That's a reminder that if there is an intellectual threshold to assume the office of Senator, it's something like the ability to count to twenty without removing your shoes, as urban legend has it.*

I think his next electoral opponent has a good chance of unseating him.

*The 'Net says this one's from Mickey Mouse, but where'd he get it? I heard it said of Senators when Internet was ARPAnet. National Review?
