Tom Feeney rears his ugly head....holds party to make funs of Dems.
http://www.thehill.com/thehill/export/TheHill/News/Frontpage/030305/feeney.html

Rep. Tom Feeney (R-Fla.) is hosting a fundraiser Wednesday at the Capitol Hill Club to celebrate the last broadcast of veteran "CBS Evening News" anchor Dan Rather, who has long vexed conservatives with what they see as a liberal bias.

The "C'est La Vie Comrade Rather" event - for the benefit of Tom Feeney for Congress - will be held from 5-7 p.m., during which attendees will watch Rather's final newscast at 6:30.

He indicated that more such attention-getting events may be on the way, courtesy of his campaign. He said he has in mind a series of tongue-in-cheek awards to be bestowed annually on liberal flies in the conservative ointment.

They may include the "Robert Byrd Cultural Sensitivity Award for Treatment of Minorities," the "Howard Dean Rhetoric Award for Understated Eloquence," the "Ward Churchill Academic Defense of America Award" and, not to forget the reason for Wednesday's party, the "Dan Rather Journalism Award."

If you are not familiar with this creep, he is the one who made fun of Al Gore publicly in an restaurant when he was Florida's Speaker of the House. He is arrogant and rude, Florida's version of Tom DeLay.

5. Boy...I agree

Feeney is an arrogant demagogue. Completely devoid of civility.

He also led the Florida Senate in dismissing the Florida electors and reappointing new ones who would vote for Bush if Gore succeeded in taking Florida in 2000. The man's a fool.

Rather should be laughing at the idiot and his moronic behavior.

6. He's also the one
who appeared on TV to tell us that even if Al Gore pulled ahead in the votes, Florida would send up a new slate of electors to declare * the winner anyway.

8. And just as physically and mentally..
ugly as the fat cat gov of Florida.

When I see pure evil like this..I think about the good guys.. like Dean and Gore who are intelligent, passionate people and not out for themselves like these Scourges of Society!

9. And the sad part is they think they are funny and cute.
They don't even realize how repugnant they are.

10. Explain his new resolution threatening judges....not sure I understand.
But I know I don't trust him.

5. "International Law. What are your views on Congressman Tom Feeney's "Reaffirming American Independence Resolution," which implicitly threatens impeachment of American judges who draw on international law or on the law of other countries for guidance? Do you believe--as many important jurists have throughout our history--that American law incorporates the norms to which we as a nation have agreed by treaty and otherwise? Do you agree that international human rights norms developed out of the horror of World War II and that the Holocaust should be part of the legal landscape against which our government's actions should be judged? Do you believe, as the Attorney General apparently does, that the Geneva Conventions for the protection of prisoners of war are "quaint" and optional?"

12. Nope, have not forgotten that at all.
I am hoping they have great luck on it. I simply despise this man.

He is so arrogant, an arrogant twirp.
