A Republican congressman citing his rights to be protected under the constitution? Anyone have his voting record on constitutional issues? Is is redundant to call a Republican a hypocrite?

Republicans tried to warn America back in the 80s that legalized gambling on Indian land would cause crime and corruption. Looks like they proved it too WTG you worthless bastards. LMAO

nuanced-
Terms to be used interchangeably. Especially since the ACLU has spoken up for Larry Craig. One can easily guess what he used to think about the ACLU..probably still does. No shame, No clue, NO MORE!

nuanced, welcome to the Department of Redundancy Department. I think you've missed the point. The Constitution is something that only doesn't apply to OTHER people. And no, that isn't a contradiction in the mind of the typical right wing authoritarian.

Since Bush, Cheney, and their Republican Congressional surogates love their ability to snoop on and monitor everyone in the U.S.A. via wiretaps, public phone companies, the TSA, Homeland Security, the FBI, and the CIA, they should have no problem whatsover being monitored and investigated themselves. Afterall, it's the new American way. They've long forgotten and summarily ignored the Constitution and any concepts attributed to the Founding Fathers. As G.W. Bush loves to say, "If they have nothing to hide...."

Are these the same Republican lawmakers that don't the Constitution or Geneva Convention apply to "enemy combatants?" The same Republicans that ok the torture of other? Just checking.

I say put him in Gitmo for a couple of months, there's really no need to prove guilt or wrongdoing, then let him resume his post in Congress with a clean slate, that's if he survives the two months.

The Admiral St. Augustine Fl. — Fri, 28 Sep 2007 23:45:09 GMT

Very redundant indeed. That's like saying the sky is blue, or ice is cold. It's become standard World knowledge. What I want to ask is "when will it end"?
Doesn't that group realise everybody knows how they are by now? They continue to TRY to paint Democrats in a bad light, and it always comes back to bite them in the rear. They should stop worrying about the Democrats because we aren't the problem. Right now they are their own worst enemy with all the blather they spew, and people might respect them more if they would shut-up the "Family Values" BS and allow everyone to live their lives. I have far more "Family Values" than anyone of them.

Or, at the very least stand up to the hypocrites of that Party and call them what they are, "Hypocrites" instead of allowing them to continue this nonsense.

Man, they sure start caring about something about the Constitution besides the 2nd amendment and butchering it with emotional nonsense about marriage and flags when THEY feel threatened.

Doesn't lying and cheating in office - if he's guilty, of course - but if that's true, doesn't that embolden the enemies of our freedoms, and help the terrorists?

We should drop "Honorable" from "Representative."

78% of America now knows that republicans hate AMERICA and middle class chlidren.Release your republican burden and join us.

They feed at the public trough and get FREE medical benefits while denying those same services to we the people. most of these "representatives" are millionaires who could well afford to pay their way. Protect our children you shameless jackals. Out of control gas prices, out of control medical costs. republicans taking better care of the iraqi people than Americans. For shame! And to the defenders of these carion, My wife and I make around 3000 over the cap so this program will not help us. but still protect the children!

Very.

Check their response when a Repub gets accused--then check their one instance of follow-up. They raided the office of a black Democrat, while allowing their fellow white Repugnicans to roam free. The same double standard can be seen in their approach to personal attack ads, "moral issues", and "fiscal conservatism".

Some Democrats say Republicans voted Dems into majority to end the war. Many Republicans are just tired of the unethical practices the Repubs are getting caught up in, and have gotten away with too long.

But wait Democrats, the Dems' day is coming, too. It's time to clean house in D.C.

Need to stop these crooks from collecting "retirement."

The Edge, Macon GA — Mon, 01 Oct 2007 04:51:00 GMT

OH NO!...How can this be? A Repugnant wouldn't do anything illegal, immoral or non-transparent!! They are the MORAL party, the legislators of the "right way to live and behave". They have God on their side, he talks to them and instructs them to tell others how to live. Of course they hold that little exemption card in their wallets giving them the right to break the rules they made-after all they are the blessed, they preach "Do as I say" but live "but not as I do".
Another disgusting Repuke to soon bite the dust....
For this guy to try to use the Constitution to protect his behind is almost funny, if it wasn't so sad.
