John Kerry voted to wage war against Iraq

34. I wished MY senior senator had done that. She's DiFi.

She's never apologized for cheerleading for the Iraq War. Then again, hubby-Blum and she made out like a bandits.

Dianne Feinstein claims that Bush misled her prior to the invasion of Iraq. I don't think she's being honest. There may have been other reasons she actively helped sell Bush's lies to me, at least).

According to the Center for Public Integrity, Feinstein's husband Richard Blum has racked in millions of dollars from Perini, a civil infrastructure construction company, of which the billionaire investor wields a 75 percent voting share.

In April 2003, the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers gave $500 million to Perini to provide services for Iraq's Central Command. A month earlier in March 2003, Perini was awarded $25 million to design and construct a facility to support the Afghan National Army near Kabul. And in March 2004, Perini was awarded a hefty contract worth up to $500 million for "electrical power distribution and transmission" in southern Iraq.

Feinstein, who sits on the Senate Appropriations Committee as well as the Select Committee on Intelligence, is reaping the benefits of her husband's investments. The Democratic royal family recently purchased a $16.5 million mansion in the flush Pacific Heights neighborhood of San Francisco. It's a disgusting display of war profiteering, and just like Cheney, the leading Democrat should be called out for her offense.

Jesus, I wished enough Californians had the wherewithal to vote for Mike Strimling in the last primaries. He would've been a FAR better Senator than DiFi. Instead, I was forced to vote for her when he got LESS votes than Orly Taitz!

We definitely need term limits. Although many people claim that we already have them for congresscritters because we have elections, they're forgetting that an entrenched senator or representative is almost impossible to remove UNLESS there is a lot of money pitted against them.

Mike was working on a shoestring budget.
