I were a weak willed politician on either side of the political fence, and I heard that ridiculous rant, I'd vote against it too if I thought I'd lose my next election.

I think this statement tells us enough about YOU and WAY TOO MANY CONGRESSPERSONS; that they let an opponents SPEECH affect the way they vote. That's the way democracy works today?!

Someone needs to shut that woman up. Damn it every time I see her I just get really passionate and want to throw something at the television. Grrr!

Uh, you cut out an important word in my original post--very tricky--I said IF I were a weak willed politician--NOT THAT I WOULD BE ONE.

I would have made a decision based on what I believed to be in the best interests of my country. I would risk being wrong or right, but I would make a stand.

Got it? Don't cut out words if you're going to quote me!
