List of Brave, Stand-up Dems in the House of Reps---------17
http://www.house.gov/

Starting with the SIX yesterday who epitomized the qualities and values in GOOD DEMS:


Robert WEXLER
Debbie WASSERMAN-SCHULTZ
Jim DAVIS
Barney FRANK
David WU
Rush HOLT

I would add these others that have penetrated the fog on various issues over time:

John CONYERS
Lloyd DOGGETT
Sheila JACKSON LEE
Dennis KUCINICH
Bob MENENDEZ
Nancy PELOSI
Linda SANCHEZ
Loretta SANCHEZ
Charlie RANGEL
Maxine WATERS
Henry WAXMAN

I'm SURE I'm missing more GOOD DECENT INTELLIGENT Representatives. I sure HOPE so, since this amounts to a pitiful 8% of the total Dems or 3.9% of the total membership.

1. My man Lloyd Doggett is there.....
He's a good one. We missed our chance to meet him at his last Lockhart appearance this past Saturday (our cat had to go to the vet), but we make it a point to interface with him when we can. He's one of the good guys.

2. Doggett is a gem
I hope the party finds more ways to utilize a liberal who actually wins in Texas.

4. I usually agree with Cynthia McKinney
Sometimes she gets lost but she seems fearless and conscientious to me.

9. You're Probably Right
I wasn't focusing on the SCHIAVO vote. Was hoping to garner the creme of 'em all for all Dem issues.
