PUKE ALERT... Top Ten Repub Senators...
Ok... normally I would brush this off as nothing. But, by my sense of even-mindedness, I decided to take a look at this list after I encountered the link on line.
I figured, "Hey, maybe this list details some direct legislation or anecdotes on these guys that could give me some hope that they're not all bad...

I was underwhelmed.

Here's the fluff;
(Puke alert on #9)

Top 10 Most Outstanding Conservative Senators
Posted Oct 14, 2005

1. Sen. Jim Inhofe (R.-Okla.)
Age: 70
Third term. Won 57% of vote in ’02. Seat up in ’08.
ACU rating: 97%
Conservative Credentials: An unabashed conservative, he’s unafraid to speak his mind. He’s an advocate for drilling in ANWR and harsh critic of the Endangered Species Act.

2. Sen. Tom Coburn (R.-Okla.)
Age: 57
First term. Won 53% of vote in ’04. Seat up in ’10.
ACU rating: 97%
Conservative Credentials: An obstetrician by trade, he’s a fearless opponent of abortion. Coburn isn’t afraid to ruffle feathers in the Senate—most notably by attacking pork-laden spending bills.

3. Sen. Jeff Sessions (R.-Ala.)
Age: 58
Second term. Won 59% of vote in ’02. Seat up in ’08.
ACU rating: 98%
Conservative Credentials: Spurned by the Senate for a federal judgeship in 1985, he won his seat in ’96. He supports eliminating earmarks in appropriations bills and advocates for conservative judicial nominees.

15. At least Roberts didn't make it on there
which surprises me a little, given everything he's done for the Bushies.

10. So he's an opponent of pork-barrel spending?
I'd be surprised to find any senator, R or D, opposed to 'pork'.

That makes me think the author of this list either knows something I don't (which I'll freely admit is likely), or he has his head very far up his ass.

3. Chambliss is a "supporter of national defense"
Uh....aren't we all? That statement just shows their absolute blindness to anything factual whatsoever.

For what he said about Max Cleland.

12. Rest assured, he's not...
I wouldn't call him human debris either. To call him that, implies at least a shread of humanity, which he has not.

16. Yeah, why not? Part of the effort to paint him as...
a bit more to the middle by the right so that he can be right back up there after his presumed re-election, I suppose.

11. I am going to cry now
Ahhhh! No! No! You set off the Inhofe Alarm!

Whenever I see his name, my eyes spew lava.

I have to get the disinfectant to spray my computer, and neutralize that horribleness that was on there.

They all stink. All of them, terrible morons doing bad things to our country every day.

I cannot wait for 2006 to start voting these idiots out of office.

This week I have to call the county Dem. headquarters and see if I can volunteer. Writing note...now.

Send this to Jim Pederson's campaign, also Hippo I think Wayne Allard will be a huge target in 08, his vote for torture and Colorado is becoming more and more Dem, I definetely think a solid candidate like Mark Udall could beat him
