Did I hear it correctly? How many GOP congress people died today?

[Nimrod2005]

I heard last part of a news update, something about a woman GOP woman (maybe named Dunn?) who also died?

Are they (Bushco) getting rid of all potential anti surge votes?

If that's the case, I expect more of them to be found dead!!!

:hide:

10. From the Seattle Times

Jennifer Dunn, former congresswoman, dies

Former Congresswoman Jennifer Dunn, one of the state's most prominent Republican figures for more than two decades, died unexpectedly Tuesday night. She was 66.

Ms. Dunn suffered a pulmonary embolism and collapsed in her Alexandria, Va., apartment and never regained consciousness, her family said in a statement. She died later at the hospital, where she was surrounded by family members.

9. She was one of the last "old school" Republicans in the House

Polite, conscientious and more interested in fiscal responsibility and libertarian values than in Christian theocracy and mega corporation business interests. She also was very close to liberal with regards to women's and children's issues.

Her replacement was Bush butt-boy David Reichert, who won the election on two claims to fame: taking 20 years to catch the Green River killer while with the King County (Washington) Sheriff's Department, and being the officer in charge of the police brutality which occured during the 1999 WTO ministerial in Seattle.

Of the two, Mrs. Dunn was by far the better person and representative.
