Reply #35: Let's not make this so much a competition...

There are things that each senator/congressperson has done that we are proud of their leadership in being the sole person to stand out on it. There are other times we wonder why they didn't vote with the "right side".

And in the past Kerry did good things in investigating BCCI. Feingold also was a civil rights champion earlier too when he was one of only a few senators to vote against the Communications Decency Act along with the Telecommunications Act, which Clinton SHOULD have vetoed. That telecommunications act is also what we are paying for today with all of the media consolidations and the resultant News Corps, Sinclair Broadcasting, GE, Clear Channels, etc. spoonfeeding us our information in their manipulative ways.

Let's focusing more on rewarding the ones that do stand up at times, and encourage them to do it more, so that they don't feel like they have to "measure" how many times they stand out so that they don't show up as some "communist" in some RW'ers voting guide.
