#2 When is that shitbag Murtha up for re-election?
Doesn't he have a mostly rural area in Penn?
How the hell does he expect to be the majority leader, or whip or whatever he wants to be if he gets the boot?

#4 Who would have thought that many Senators were so far out of the "mainstream". I pray every day that Gore and Kerry will run again in 2008.

#5 Murtha is opposed by a fine candidate, Diana Irey. If you're sick and tired of Murtha, she deserves your support.

Murtha is also a big pork guy, and rumors abound about his connection to Abscam and to current investigations of improper influence. There are a lot of reasons to retire this Congressman.

And... now that we've had about a thousand votes not to withdraw, can we quit voting a get on to other business?

#7 "My soul cries out for something more dignified,"

They sound more the ancient Roman Senate every day. Hey, President Bush, how about a decimation of the senatorial ranks?

#9 Apparently Rockerfeller was out of the country on a "fact-making" mission, and wasn't there to vote.
