  Sen. Landrieu should be excommunicated!

  Adding to the annals of irritance - how about our favorite oily Sen. from Louisiana.  

  I went to her website today to send her a nasty-gram, and was even more galled (if that is even possible) by her release on her homepage entitled "Landrieu Sides with State Over Party in Energy Bill Vote".  

  If that were not enough to make me totally lose my s*?t - she goes on to add that "We must invest in smart energy solutions for the future, but not at the expense of the states that strengthen our energy security today."

  If that argument held any water (or oil) then why did Sens. Hutchison (R-TX) and Murkowski (R-AK) - both from huge oil producing states - vote in favor of ending debate?

  The good part of my nasty-gram to her "You are a pitiful excuse for a Senator and should change the navigation on your website from "For Kids" to "For Big Oil" - b/c if you cared at all about kids or the future generations to come you would have done the right thing and showed your support for repealing the appalling tax breaks given to Big Oil (at a time of record profits) in 2005."

  And how about ol' John McCain being absent for both cloture votes when all of the other Pres. candidates were present!  He can talk the talk, but, like so many on his side of the aisle, can't walk the walk.On Feinstein agrees with Big Auto about federal fuel efficiency standards posted 1 year, 11 months ago 2 Responses
