| Did Sen Murray sell out to the repugs? I know that Sen Cantwell went |
|
along but that is expected. She has supported the war from the beginning. But Sen Murray? Please tell me it isn't so.
They own the war now and all the dead. When our democratic Senators bow down to the king what are we supposed to do?

| 4. I sent them both emails telling how upset I was |
|
with their vote and their reason for voting yes didn't cut it with me especially since my son-n-law is in the military...(not in Iraq in S. Korea) but still I am more involved because of this. Having all the military in Iraq makes them weak for everywhere else. Not withstanding it was all a lie to start with!!

| 5. I was very disappointed with Murray. Like you, I expected Cantwell |
|
to go along with it, but Murray? Also, I think Jim McDermott voted yes in the House. GAK!

| 6. Hi, I sent them both "shame on you" letters too. |
|
I don't know why she did this. Cantwell didn't surprise me, though I thought she had been getting more representative of my views recently.

| 7. I sent them shame on you emails also. Cantwell replied with Fox News |
|
talking points. If we didn't pass the bill the troops wouldn't have bullets or body armor. What she didn't say was that Halliburton wouldn't have their cut.
Cantwell has supported this war from the beginning, but because she is an incumbent the demo party will support her over opponents.

Surely you didn't believe McDermott voted "Yes". :) He voted "NO", loud and clear. I don't know what got into Murray. I guess she was thinking it was going to pass so they would get domestic money. The whole point was that the Dems needed to stand for the troops. If the Democrats won't stand and deliver for our troops, who will? Domestic spending, although important, is secondary to the killing of our citizens in this occupation in Iraq.
This is very disgusting. If both parties fund the war, what is the difference between them?

| 14. Centrist Dems have mountains of dry powder |
|
Patty & Maria better step up to the plate in September when this comes up again, or so help me...
I'll symbolically vote against them in the primary & meekly vote for them in the general, like we always do.

| 15. I want them to anwser exactly why - no support from me |

Come on Democrats!!!
Don't they have a majority now???? Who were the house Dems who approved this? What is wrong with them? How could they (Cantwell and Murray) support this insane policy? I will support any senate candidate opposed to these two, so help me. Sorry Patty, but if you support the bloodletting for imperialism and world dominance by USA, I will remember when your term is up.
hey everybody, check out LinkTV on your cable channels! Informed independant documentarys. It's channel 375 on Direct TV.
Why do they hate us? (Everyone worldwide, duh...)
It makes me sick.:puke: :puke: :puke: :puke:

Senator Cantwell ~
Do you get it now? How low do the poll numbers have to go before the Democrats in DC wake up to the fact that as your constituents we're mad as hell and aren't going to take it anymore? I have voted for a Democrat in every election since Jimmy Carter in '80 but won't be voting for you, Murray, or Adam Smith when your terms end. I'm raising the next voter in our house and she looks forward to helping vote you all out of office. We will volunteer and vote for any progressive challenger who stands up for our Constitution and the rule of law. The criminals in this administration will be impeached with or without your help. Our troops will be evacuated from this disastrous occupation sooner rather than later. We are Americans first and foremost, not Democrats, Americans and we want our country back!
Most sincerely ~
