Daschle? Buh-bye!

Recommended Posts

Something that hasn't been mentioned yet is that Tom Daschle was defeated. This first time in 52 years that a senate leader was unseated. Actually, this is one of the best things to happen in a long while to the senate, he wasn't representing the people from his state correctly and the voters spoke out and voted him out.

I sat next to that piece of shit during the West Point graduation this year and told him to his face that I thought he was a disgrace and hoped he lost. I also asked him why he wasn't invited on stage.(Rumsfeld was the keynote speaker). The enforcement detail gave me a hard time but when they realized I was retired law enforcement(disabled as a result of) and said as long as we are in america I'll say what I wish-because after all-he works for all of us. Fuck him. He even extended his hand and I refused to shake it. My neice who graduated is now in flight school and I'm glad Kerry won't be the commander in chief.

And yet we have complaints about liberals bashing Bush.

You have a right to your opinion. It's just funny that it's "honest expression of opinion" on one side, and bashing on the other.

It's bashing either way, folks. Just because you agree with the basher doesn't change what it is.

Nice. You must be one of those compassionate conservatives I've heard about.



Never said I was a compassionate conservative. I'm a pragmatist. He did his best to be an obstructionist. I have conservative values and by the results of the election-I'm not the only one. Daschle blocked court appointments-now I hope we get rid of judges that try to legislate from the bench. PS: Special thanks to Michael Moore-he woke up alot of republicans with his nonsense and retoric. Tom Daschle was shocked when I asked him if he was proud of the obstructions he created and wished him a defeat in November. Fuck Him and good bye. PS: what are you guys going to do with the "Selected -Not Elected" bumper stickers?As far a Bush bashing,it never bothered me,you have a right to your opinion. I won't make an excuse for saying what I feel. People died for that freedom. Funny though,I have a question for a liberal? Why do most liberals find capital punishment wrong under all circumstances,but feel the destruction of unborn children is OK?

Bashing, smashing....
This has nothing to do with agreeing with his platform, it has to do with a politician representing a platform to his constituents and then behaving according to a completely different platform in DC.

My hat is off to the citizens of SD, and this is actually a huge indicator for this reason: They willingly chose to unseat a politician that historically has always brought home the pork to their state, because in the end integrity mattered more than self interest, a lesson to be noticed.

Daschle going away is like the icing on a sweet, sweet cake! Good riddance.B|



God forbid that we should have balance in our gov't as it was designed.

Ok, he's gone. Big Deal, I'm sure they will elect another minority leader.

FYI - The RNC threw a ton of cash and attention into getting rid of Daschle. See, you really can buy an election.

Come on man, is that going to be the complaint for the next four years?

It was designed that we could elect representatives to the government. It was designed that the powers of government be balanced. It was not designed that the political leaning of government be balanced.


ps - having two major parties is guarantee that it won't be "balanced" any time soon

it takes several parties or no parties for the government to really reflect the people

Which is why I would love to see us move to the Condorcet method or something similar for voting.

And yes, for every screw up this administration makes, I'm gonna be vocal. I will most likely be able to say "I told you so" in four years.

Golly, that's about as mature it gets. :S

I guess I'm not allowed to express my distrust and dissappointment in the track record of GW? And to think that it will be a sign of things to come? I will remain suspect of him until he proves other wise. Since he isn't willing to admit he can make a mistake, then I am of the mindset that we are in for a world of hurt over the next four years.

But then again - I'd love to have him prove me wrong.

You have no idea how much he was misrepresenting our state...



Please tell us more.

The grandstanding that he would do on most any issue was discraceful.

Sure you are; hopefully in the future though you can find a less childish way to do it.

Interesting you didn't comment on the statements like "Douschle." I've sort of thought that making fun of someone's name was kind of childish.

Honestly, Wendy, I skipped right over it. I tend to avoid the majority of the one liners.
