Allard named one of five 'worst senators' by Time (BWAHAHA!)

I can't think of more appropriate designation for this bozo.

Time magazine ranked Colorado's Sen. Wayne Allard as one of the five "worst senators" in a story released online today, a label his top aide called unfair.

The magazine dubbed Allard, R-Loveland, "The Invisible Man." It said that despite his seniority his legislative output has been "dwarfed" by that of second-year colleague, Sen. Ken Salazar, D-Denver.

"Now in his 10th year, Allard almost never plays a role in major legislation, even though he's on two key Senate committees, budget and appropriations," the article states.

Allard chief of staff Sean Conway said his boss was unavailable for comment on Easter. He called the Time rankings "laughable" and unfair.

Now remember, this is from the RW shill the Rocky Mountain News, so there is some tepid defense of him in the article. However, he is worthless and I'm glad he's been called on it.

And, I'm being struck by the beating wings of flying pigs, because I actually agree with their editorial today!

Air strikes aren't only Iran option

Edited to add the first line of the editorial, which drips with unintended (?) irony

"Iran may be governed by a borderline psychotic who seems unmoved by traditional diplomacy."

4. He's a jerk and an incompetent Bush* sycophant...

but just to add to the discourse, he was no more respected as a veterinarian by his colleagues...

Seems he's consistent, if anything (consistently incompetent)

5. What a useless dope

Doing the work of no people, either in his own party or otherwise.

Here's hoping he is shown the door, and soon.

7. Gee, it took a lot of investigating to find that out!

:sarcasm:


I've been listening to my Senator on CSPAN lately (since I found their internet streams). I was really surprised at his very poor speaking ability. He mispronounces so many words. He is just a shill for Bush.

He is almost totally absent from our media except at election time. He even avoids commenting about protests at his local office.

Now why didn't Jeff Sessions make the list?

8. all blow and no action it seems.

10. Senator Dullard.

He beat Strickland with one ad: Terrorists are evil and that's why they do what they do.

It was in response to Strickland's statements about trying to figure out WHY terrorists do what they do.

Sickening.
