Why does that state produce so many outright scumbags? Cornyn Indicates Senate GOP Will Resist Seating Al Franken
By Eric Kleefeld - December 30, 2008, 2:58PM
It now looks like the Senate GOP could end up trying to block the seating of Al Franken, assuming he is declared the winner next week in the Minnesota recount. NRSC chairman John Cornyn put out a statement accusing the Franken campaign of falsely declaring victory, and denouncing the idea of provisionally seating him while the expected legal dispute of the election is resolved:
|
Cornyn's statement: "Al Franken is falsely declaring victory based on an artificial lead created on the back of the double counting of ballots. His campaign's actions in the last several days on the issues of rejected absentee ballots are creating additional chaos and disorder in the Minnesota recount. Those actions, coupled with the recent comments by Senator Amy Klobuchar of Minnesota, who suggests seating someone even if there is an election contest, are unprecedented. Minnesotans will not accept a recount in which some votes are counted twice, and I expect the Senate would have a problem seating a candidate who has not duly won an election."

This is bullshit on several levels, as the article states.
Cornyn, Delay, Cheney, Bush.....

A political scientist named Michael Haas has just published a book titled George W. Bush, War Criminal? The Bush Administration's Liability for 269 War Crimes:
Based on information supplied in autobiographical and press sources, the book matches events in Afghanistan, Guantánamo, Iraq , and various secret places of detention with provisions in the Geneva Conventions and other international agreements on war crimes. His compilation is the first to cite a comprehensive list of specific war crimes in four categories-illegality of the decision to go to war, misconduct during war, mistreatment of prisoners of war, and misgovernment in the American occupations of Afghanistan and Iraq. |
Is it something in the air? I've read that TX has become a highly polluted state -- could be. Or maybe they eat a lot of lead paint chips, I dunno, but whatever it is, it even affects out-of-staters who settle there, notably ones from Connecticut.
If you're planning to visit Texas, consider this warning: Remember the Alamo. TX lost the Alamo and is proud of it -- perhaps it's mercury in the drinking water....
