Olympia Snow, Brave Republican

[SKR8PN]

Well what usually happens is the party supports another candidate to run against you in a primary. Then if you don't get voted out in the primary, your party is usually split to the point where the other party wins the seat. In Snows case she is a legend and very well liked in her state. Some people will tell you otherwise, but that is because they are hard right conservatives and don't like her. She is kind of like McCain. She thinks a little clearer though. One thing the RNC can do though is withdraw funding from her campaign. A lot of people donate straight to the DNC or RNC and they decide where to spend the money for political commercials. Unfortunately most Americans vote based on those annoying commercials that are almost always based on lies. From both sides, although the RNC really has it down a lot better. Karl Rove was a true genius at misleading the public. Goebels had nothing on him. I'm not calling Rove a Nazi so anyone that wants to jump on that bandwagon please spare me.

So yes they can have some effect on her. I think they can also exclude her from committees. So defying them and doing the right thing was risky on her part. Maybe she'll join the other side in keeping the Empire in exile.

....and the democRATS are not good at lying? Pu-lease....there hasn't been a truly honest politician ON EITHER SIDE for the past 20 years or more.

Read it again SLOWLY. You will see the words From both sides. Yes both sides lie. The Republicans are just a lot more effective at it. Who do you think was controlling the terror alert scale for the 6 months before Bush got reelected. Every time some negative news about the administration would come out the terror scale would go to the 2nd from the top. By the way there's something wrong with your shift key. I know you're not using derogatory names.

By the way. There hasn't been a truly honest politician in the history of the world. The closest would be Obama of course. But I'm sure he lies sometimes too.

No politican can ever be totally honest, as with alot of the citizens also.

Please dear GOD tell me you are not being serious.






As far as the REPUBLICANS having a lock on lying??? Ya might just wanna do a little history research, and tell me WHO signed the Federal Reserve Act in 1913.......
I can promise you it was not a Republican.

WOW that is a mind numbing amount of
scary looking actually...LOL

I see you still haven't read what I said or you don't comprehend. I never said the Republicans have a lock on lying. If you want to disagree that's wonderful. Makes the world go around. Please read what is written first so you have some basis for your disagreement. I'm glad you thought the Obama comment was funny. It was meant to be. He is a politician after all.

She'll win up here no matter what darkside she sides with. She brings the big weapons contracts to Maine. Not that thats all she brings here but Bath IronWorks is a big industy here , a measuring stick. As for siding with the dems ( no different than a rep) . So now the bill can move on and be bogged down in 3 weeks of talks and go absulutly nowhere. Man I love this theater. Act 9 Scene 4 Make the sheep lookt here while we do this over there. I degress before my head poops. GO PAUL!!!!

He actually made a public apology about creating the federal reserve. Seems he came to his senses but too late.
