Who is the Court Jester of the US Senate?

[TayTay]

Poll question: Who is the Court Jester of the US Senate?

Is it Tom Coburn, R-Insanity, or perhaps Rick 'Man-On-Dog' Santorum (R-WTF?) Or could it be George 'Football-brains' Allen (R-Duh!) Perhaps a darkhorse moran that I haven't yet been introduced to?

Who do you think deserves the coveted title of Court Jester of the US Senate?

1. Hands-down!!!

Ol Ricky the Clown!!!

[terrya]

2. I'd also add John "Boxturtle" Cornyn R-TX to your poll.

That man is one poor excuse for a United States Senator.

[TayTay]

5. Done!

Thanks! There are just so many.

[second edition]

3. I voted for Allen because he thinks he could be President, but

Santorum runs a very close second.

4. My four year old is smarter than Norm Coleman. n/t

[Wickerman]

14. MOST 4 year olds are smarter than Normie!

unless they have the last name of Bush and hail from Texa... errr, Massachusetts.

[TayTay]

16. Hey, we only can account for HW

W was spawned in Connecticut. Have mercy. Massachusetts also has to answer to Gawd for being the birthplace of Grover Norquist (Westin, MA.) We can't be blamed for That Friggin Idiot as well.

Have a heart. We've taken enough abuse over the last two years.

[Wickerman]

20. fair enough

I shouldn't have gone back in genealogy, you are correct. Geeez, I had no idea you were also responsible for Grover. What the hell is in the water out there? :think:

[TayTay]

21. And Andy Card, * Chief of Staff as well.

And people say we are liberal. Maybe, but when we get an outbreak of Rethuglicanism, it's a doozy and highly resistant to vaccines. Sigh!

Thanks. And yeah, Grover originally festered his way above the swamp in good ole librul MA. Sigh! (Salem witch trials, Sacco and Vanzetti, Grover Norquist. MA has some things to be humble about.)

EDIT; Always for typos

6. This is the ONLY vote (P)ricky will ever get from me here in PA.

Tom 'ICGaypeople' Coburn would get my vote if I weren't in PA.

7. Kerry,but they mostly laugh(and point) when his back's turned.

9. Haw.That's a good one.I'm laughing and pointing at you now.

[TayTay]

12. Well, don't hurt yourself

That two things at once effort can get to some people. I wouldn't want any of our fine DU posters to hurt themselves. Take care now.

22. You really "know" a lot,no doubt.

[karynnj]

35. This is uncalled for

having watched various hearings, Kerry is among the most statesmanlike, best prepared Senators, asking very focused, good questions.

It is obvious you have nothing to back this up with - all I know is that both of my Senators appear to have a large amount of respect for him. I also think that Al Gore would likely list a long list of Senators, before even thinking of Kerry. In fact Gore gave Kerry a very over-sized shirt saying Kerry 2008 at one of the St Patrick Day events (1999 I think).

36. Politicians.Don't lose those rose-colored glasses.

[StudentOfDarrow]

10. Santorum easily. n/t

[ellenfl]

11. all good choices . . . i couldn't pick just one. eom

[Guy Whitey Corngood]

13. Could you make this any harder????? n/t

[BurgherHoldtheLies]

15. Norm Coleman??? C'mon, we're talking man-on-dog and ICLesbians here.

My crazy wingnut Senator can beat your crazy wingnut Senator any day of the week (except Sundays, of course)

[Totally Committed]

17. Joe Lieberman...

He's too much of both (Parties) and not enough of either.

He kisses Bush literally and figuratively, but in different places for each.

He thinks he only has to be "polite" or "fair" to Republicans.

One last word: JOEMENTUM.

TC

[TayTay]

23. I have problems with Joe as well

But compared to Santorum and Coburn, he looks like the friggin Prince of Sanity. I mean, Joementum doesn't hold a candle to Santorum talking about privitizing the Weather Service or Coburn impersonating a real Senator at the Roberts hearings.

I mean, come one.

[Algorem]

24. Must be a Freeper,criticizing a Democrat.Right?

[TayTay]

26. No. I have read TC's stuff

He posts intelligent and well-reasoned arguments that almost never mention pointing and laughing at anyone. I have respect for his opinions and for the thought that went into them.

I honestly didn't think that Joe belonged in with the likes of Coburn or Santorum or G.Allen. That's all.

[Totally Committed]

28. Uh... I'm a SHE, but what the hey, thanks for the sentiment!

And, we all see what we see when we look at the Senate.

Squandered potential has always turned me off in people. Joe could have been a contender, if, along with his high "morals" and considerable brain, came a working heart.

And he kisses Republican ass. 'Nuff said.

[TayTay]

30. Ya know, I thought that might get me in trouble

Must be inurred to it after all these years of having a first name that is somewhat androgynous.

My apologies. Apparently the writing is gender neutral. I meant no offense, either way.

[Totally Committed]

27. A FREEPER... me???????

:rofl:

TC

[Algorem]

29. I was trying to parody the viewpoint of certain thin-skinned types.

[TayTay]

31. Well, sometimes parody can be a difficult artform to master

My sympathies.

[Algorem]

32. blah.

But seriously,Kerry blows.

[TayTay]

34. Ah, sound slike dearly bought wisdom

Apply it honestly. Wisdom like that is often dearly bought.

[Totally Committed]

37. Algorem, I did the same thing in another thread yesterday...

you know, gave a shot at levity... and it was not received well. But, I got what you were doing. I just replied as I did in case others didn't. I laughed out loud when I read what you wrote!

Trust me, Freepers would burn me at the stake!

:rofl:

TC

[paineinthearse]

18. All of the above.

And don't forget Jeff Sessions.

[EST]

25. Choices, choices, choices...

Had this been an essay exam, I would have to include the swinging team of Lieberman and McCain- who have conclusively demonstrated that multiple personalities are highly recommended when one must, compulsively, make a fool of oneself.

[bluedawg12]

33. This is HARD! Nutsorum and Crapburn hmmm..n/t
