Who's "...the Senator from Los Angeles..." * was yelling about today?
O.K., I know who "the Senator from Las Vegas is, but "...the Senator from Los Angeles?" :dunce: :crazy:

Does * even understand what the U.S. Senate is?

You can hear him at this link: <http://www.npr.org/templates/story/story.php?storyId=5062077>

Senate Races to Finish Work Before Holidays


Listen to this story...(at link above)
by David Welna

All Things Considered, December 19, 2005 · In a rare holiday week session, the Senate continues debate on a budget reconciliation bill and defense appropriations legislation. The House of Representatives adjourned early Monday after passing a series of spending cuts and a provision for drilling in the Arctic refuge.

2. then again
the moron could've been wanting to say las vegas, but slipped LA first. but who knows.. boxer sounds plausible of course.

regardless, does he not sound like a guilty man throwing a fit?????? he is giving a speech everyday backing up IRAQ and his spying! we never heard this much from bush in his 5 years when campaigning wasn't involved.

4. Yes, but remember Junior is an idiot
And most right wing idiots (outside of those who actually LIVE in California) believe that California consists of the Librul Hollywood Elites and the San Francisco Sodomites.

And even the Chimp knows Feinstein used to be the mayor of Sod, uh San Francisco. Which means their other Senator would have to come from Los Angeles, right?

Ouch.... Even under a heavy dose of NyQuil, trying to think like Chimpy really hurts my brain :crazy:

DiFi is from San Francisco, and Barbara Boxer is from Marin County which is just on the north side of golden arches ...

7. My impression is he was talking about protecting those cities
I never got the idea he was talking about Senators FROM those cities...rather he was addressing the Senators who represent those cities..specifically Schumer and Clinton, Boxer and DiFi, and Reid.

I hate the man with my whole being but I didn't find any fault with how he phrased this. (I do find fault with the substance of everything he said though.)

8. I think you are being extremely generous to *, Would you feel the same...
...if he referred to your Senators as the Senators from Portland?

O.K., bad example, he probably doesn't even know that their IS a Portland in both Oregon AND in Maine, but I'm sure if he called the Senators from my state the Senators from Atlanta, some folks would be very upset.

9. He wasn't talking about the Senators FROM there
He was talking about not protecting those cities and was referring to the Senators who represent those cities. At least that was my immediate impression as I heard him speak.

In any case, I think this discussion is futile. He's an imbecile and I'm not defending him. I just don't think this one statement is all it's being assumed to be.

I'm not arguing with you. He IS an idiot!

Moving on...
