God damn it , Tom Harkin!

You may be one of the most consistent liberals around, but you fucked that one up! What in the world could you have been thinking? Couldn't you have taken a clue from your fellow uber-liberals? Your office will be hearing from me tomorrow!

1. Harkin may still be spooked by AIPAC
They blasted him in the early 90's for daring to be slightly less then relentlessly anti-Palestinian. Harkin caved then, but they still made sure he didn't get anywhere close to the nomination and maybe they were threatening him in his next reelection campaign. Or maybe he owed Reid something.

4. There is little chance that Harkin will lose
any election here in Iowa. That being said, however, I am contacting him at once to express my extreme displeasure with his poor choice in voting for this bill.

2. Harkin voted for that piece of shit bill?
Man oh man, now I am truly bummed. I will join you in contacting him, except I'm going to do it RIGHT NOW! At least Bruce Braley in the House, my rep, voted NO. Good for him.

3. My House guy too, Dave Loebsack.
Edited on Thu May-24-07 08:02 PM by Heaven and Earth
From fake moderate Jim Leach to what appears to be a true-blue progresssive Dave Loebsack has been a huge jump.

I'm not calling now because I want to vent on a live human being.
