Please check this to see if your Senator or Rep

[bdamomma]

is for escalation in Iraq.

1. Nebraska - Lee Terry Jr. Of course the nasty little bastard is.

[rosesaylavee]

2. IL - Dist 14 (Denny Hastert)

No vote. Brave little man that he is.

[snowbear]

16. Hastert is STILL alive???

Dayum!

[rosesaylavee]

18. OMG

:spray:

That's a keeper - though I now have to replace my keyboard!

[wryter2000]

3. Don't even have to look for my Rep

I have the wonderful Barbara Lee. :loveya:

[Sapphire Blue]

4. My Senators & Rep. oppose the escalation; just called to thank them.

[unhappycamper]

5. I'm suprised my POS Rep Steven Lynch (D-MA-09) is opposed.

Perhaps he got the message.

[madfloridian]

6. Georgia's Jim Marshall supports the surge.

That's a shame.

[rocktivity]

7. I think I have more respect for the supporters of the escalation

than I do for the "leaners", "unknowns", and "refused-to-answer"s!

:headbang:

[hashibabba]

8. Well, Rep. Tom Davis, VA has no opinion apparently. But

Jim Webb, of course, is against the escalation. And John Warner, of course, if for it.

[yankeeinlouisiana]

9. Hmmm....Vitter and Jindal refused to answer.

But Mary Landrieu and William Jefferson are opposed. I was pleasantly surprised by Landrieu.

:-)

[Blue_In_AK]

10. I didn't even need to look at this to know

that those idiots Don Young and Ted Stevens would be supporting the escalation. For Lisa Murkowski it says "refused to answer," which leads me to believe that she's leaning toward opposition. She is much more moderate and reasonable than the other two.

[Debau2005]

11. My rep and one Senator

refused to answer, the other is leaning to support. Gotta love the repugs of the Deep South!

[Mass]

12. All mine are against.

Kerry, Kennedy, and Markey (though they list him as unknown).

[ayeshahaqqiqa]

13. Thanks

Now I know who needs to be called--Blanche Lincoln (refused to answer) and John Boozman (leaning in favor)

[Bjornsdotter]

14. My Senators are great

....my Representative is a POS.

Yesterday I called Melissa Bean's office and was given a lovely non-committal answer, today she is listed as undecided. We in the 8th district know what that means...she voting the dark side AGAIN.

However Durbin and Obama rock!

Cheers

[TayTay]

15. Error on this list: Markey (D-MA) strongly opposes escalation

From the LATimes, 1/11/07
Article by Noam N. Levey and Nicole Gaouette

Meanwhile, Massachusetts Democrats Sen. Edward M. Kennedy and Rep. Edward J. Markey were lining up co-sponsors for their bills, which would go even further and cut off funds for an Iraq troop buildup.

I think having a bill that calls for cutting the funding counts as opposing.

[rep the dems]

17. Casey, Specter, and Murphy are all opposed. nt

[Zodiak]

19. Our Dem Senators to call

Lincoln (refused to answer), Johnson (unknown),

Carper, Conrad, Ben Nelson (lean oppose)...not bad, but we can do better.

And of course...

Leiberman (support)

So, let's pull out the bottom end of my tally of Democrats (an pseudo-Democrats like Leiberman) and see where they fall.

Cantwell (Washington) DLC 48.27586207
Stabenow (Michigan) DLC 46.55172414
Kohl (Wisconsin) DLC 44.82758621
Feinstein (California) DLC 44.82758621
Leiberman (Connecticut) DLC 44.82758621
Rockefeller (West Virginia) 41.37931034
Conrad (North Dakota) DLC 41.37931034
Baucus (Montana) DLC 39.65517241
Carper (Deleware) DLC 34.48275862
Johnson (South Dakota) DLC 31.03448276
Lincoln (Arkansas) DLC 31.03448276
Salazar (Colorado) DLC 24.13793103
Pryor (Arkansas) DLC 22.4137931
Nelson (Florida) DLC 20.68965517
Landrieu (Louisianna) DLC 17.24137931
Nelson (Nebraska) DLC 3.448275862

Wow....what a surprise. The wafflers are the susual suspects. I counted the "lean oppose" people because it is a wishy-washy position to take with such strong public sentiment and such stong opposition from experts, generals, and soldiers. These people need to be called to firmly put them in the "oppose" category.

[MrRobotsHolyOrders]

20. Seattle, stand up!

Jim McDermott rolling strong through you neighborhood.

[OregonBlue]

21. Oregon DUers, Greg Walden has not stated his position. Call him and

ask him why. His district no longer supports the President's war. Let him know how you feel.

22. My congressman is not for it

David Price NC-04

“‘There seems to be an absolute conviction of his own rightness,’ Price said. ‘That’s a dangerous quality in an international situation of this sort where the facts are overwhelmingly arrayed against the course that he’s choosing.’”

http://www.heraldsun.com/nationworld/14-807880.cfm

[Spirochete]

23. Murray, Cantwell & Baird

all opposed.

[calimary]

24. Good link! Great resource!

Thanks for posting it!

:thumbsup:

[Eurobabe]

25. Schmidthead, unknown, but I think she's a supporter

She's OD'd on the Boosh KOOLAID since the day she took office in OH-2.

[Hollow Shells]

26. Montana rules... n/t

[NastyRiffraff]

27. Yay, Maryland!

My Rep, Chris Van Hollen, and both my senators, Mikulski and Cardin, oppose.

[crispini]

28. It's so nice to be represented by a member of

the Congressional Black Caucus. Congresswoman Eddie Bernice Johnson, D-TEXAS 30 on the side of the angels, every time! :D
