Senators Who You Love and Sentors You to Love to Hate

[Bleeding heart conservative, HTMLdon]

Republicans I hate: Coburn, Inhofe, Brownback

Democrats I like: Webb(new), Lieberman, Kohl

[Bleeding heart conservative, HTMLdon]

1) Why do you like Webb?

Because, despite the instance of jfern, Webb is conservative at heart.  He's no hippie-lover.  I strongly respect and admire his military background, and wish we had more candidates like him on our side.

If one Republican had to go down, I'm glad it was George Allen.  I just wish he had been the only one to go down

2) How can anyone like Kohl? Does he do anything?

Why would I like a Democrat who did anything?

You are setting yourself up to be one very dissapointed fellow in the near future if you really think Webb is a conservative.

Don't believe any of the ultra-spin you hear from Fox News, HR - the vast majority of Democrats who won on Nov. 7th are NOT conservatives Dems, and Jim Webb certainly isn't one, either.

So I should instead believe the spin from DailyKos?  Jim Webb is a former Marine and Reagan's Navy secretary--and only resigned because he opposed DECREASING the military. Webb may end up voting like a traditional Democrat, which is understandable... but he's not one of your latte-sipping, Politically Correct, Manhattan-residing, pacifist, vegetarian, DailyKos-reading,gun-hating,Dean-loving whackos.  He criticized both Kerry and Bush in '04, and was probably right on the mark.  He is a real American, and a legitimate hero... he will be very lonely in his chosen caucus.

Et tu, Beet?

Does he consider John Glenn not a hero then?

I didn't think he was really a liberal.

John Kerry?

Yes.  He's a hero for handing us the election in '04, and making a valiant attempt at the same in '06.  Thanks!

Max Cleland?

He's from Georgia.  More moderate than liberal.  Definately a hero though.

Wes Clark?

You mean the guy who supported Bush in '00 and was a Republican until quite recently, until he started being a member of the opportunist party?

Kennedy?

John F. Kennedy, who is an American hero, was perhaps the strongest believer in American exceptionalism, which is no longer a liberal trait.

All the vets who ran for office this year as Dems?

My congrats to Rahm Emanuel on an excellent recruitng year.

I guess if you're a liberal Dem, it doesn't matter what you did... you're permanently shut out of heroism altogether in Don's mind.

As long as Bob Dole, George HW Bush, John McCain, and Duke Cunningham are shut out in the liberal mind, then I suppose so.

Duke Cunningham? LOL!

He has disgraced himself, but he is still a hero.

[Bleeding heart conservative, HTMLdon]

Yes, Duke Cunningham.  A man who didn't throw his medals away.... because he EARNED them.

[Bleeding heart conservative, HTMLdon]

Do you still like Webb now, Don?

Absolutely.  There are a few points in there that are factually incorrect or off base, but overall I share his concerns.
