Irony of the Year: Feinstein campaign called ME for money.
Edited on Mon Oct-17-11 02:42 PM by RandySF
She lives in Seacliff neighborhood in San Francisco, I live Downtoen. Yet apparently she doesn't have the $5 million to replace what was embezzled by her campaign's accountant. You would think this might be an opportunity to change her corporatist voting record, but the other night, I saw her on Hannity's program. I think I will save the cash for my kid's scooter.

1. God and politicians always claim they're broke and ask for handouts.
Funny how people panhandling on the street get arrested but politicians get paid for doing the same thing.

2. She's about the last Dem I'd give money to.
Is it her year again already? I remember voting for somebody else in her last primary. Who's running against her?

3. Yeah, it really sucks when a Democratic politician tries to raise funds.

11. It's difficult to call DiFi a Democrat.
While technically accurate, she's really part of the DiFi party. Doesn't particularly give a damn about anyone other than herself.

4. You should be asking her for a couple of bucks
Just to tide you over until you get a Dem Senator with the guts to stand up to corporate interests.

5. I detest her for her votes. I will remember her as Pro-Immunity Feinstein. That one sealed
my disgust.

8. Have you ever been to Seacliff?
You can almost fit this apartment building into her house. I just find it hard to believe she does not have the $5 million to replace what was stolen. She could easily finance a statewide campaign out of her own pocket alone.

9. What the hell?!
Does she think we all would just forget her and what she voted for? I'm (even if I'm not from there) ashamed to say she is from California! But, then again, Reagan came from CA. Frankly, Reagan voted more favorably than Feinstein! Feinstein is a disappointment! But then, she is not alone as there are many dems that are a disappointment. The need for a new political system is apparent.

Here is her house.

13. She'll be fine. Her husband received war contracts for the Iraq War. He made a pretty penny. nt

15. The last straw for me was when she voted for the Patriot Act against the
wishes of her constituents. She went on television and said that if she had voted what her constituents wanted she would have noted no, but that she 'knows things' which the pubic don't so she voted for it.

That was the last straw.
