4. Our Repub rep McHugh (N-NY) is sort of moderate & doesn't always vote the
(neo-con) party line (I think it's something like 80% that he does). He's still very much a Repub but he was one of the few Republicans that voted against the last "give the shaft to the poor" budget bill.

2. Hmmmm. That's interesting. It's usually the House that's the
rubber stamp!

5. RUBBERSTAMP REPUBLICANS
At it again. The inkpad is out and the RUBBERSTAMP prepared!

There's only one way to stop the RUBBERSTAMP Republican Congress. Vote 'em out in '06.
