Just got this email from a friend showing who presided over the Senate on every Tuesday since 2000. According to the record below, Mr. Cheney has presided over the Senate twice in the past four years. It would seem Mr. Cheney is a sociopath and a chronic liar! ******************************************************** >Subject: VP in the Senate: TWICE IN FOUR YEARS! >In Tuesday night's debate, Dick Cheney tried to make a point of Edward's attendance record in the US Senate. Cheney says that he presides (as the VP is suppose to do) most Tuesdays. Well here is the TRUTH (which Cheney wouldn't recognize of course). Please pass this along to those who doubt. Of course the horrible lies he told were about Iraq and >healthcare, etc. But this is amusing! 2001 >January 30 - Enzi >February 6 - Chafee >February 13 - Chafee >February 27 - Allen >March 6 - Burns >March 13 - Reid >March 20 - DeWine >March 27 - Chafee >April 3 - Smith >April 24 - Chafee >May 1 - Chafee >May 8 - Chafee >May 15 - Frist >May 22 - Chafee >June 5 - Enzi >June 12 - Byrd >June 19 - Carper >June 26 - Bayh >July 10 - Nelson >July 17 - Clinton >July 24 - Byrd >July 31 - Stabenaw >September 25 - Wellstone >October 2 - Clinton >October 9 - Clinton >October 16 - Edwards >October 23- Byrd >October 30 - Bingaman >November 13 - Murray >November 27 - Jeffords >December 4 - Stabenaw >December 11 - Carnahan >December 18 - Nelson > >2002 > >Tue 1/29 - Nelson >Tue 2/5 - Kohl >Tue 2/12 - Stabenow >Tue 2/26 - Landrieu >Tue 3/5 - Edwards >Tue 3/12 - Landrieu >Tue 3/19 - Miller >Tue 4/9 - Cleland >Tue 4/16 - Reed >Tue 4/23 - Wellstone >Tue 4/30 - Nelson >Tue 5/7 - Miller >Tue 5/14 - Cleland >Tue 5/21 - Nelson >Tue 6/4 - Durbin >Tue 6/11 - Corzine >Tue 6/18 - Dayton >Tue 6/25 - Landrieu >Tue 7/9 - Reed >Tue 7/16 - Corzine >Tue 7/23 - Reed >Tue 7/30 - Clinton >Tue 9/3 - Reed >Tue 9/10 - Corzine >Tue 9/17 - Reid >Tue 9/24 - Stabenow >Tue 10/1 - Miller >Tue 10/8 - Miller >Tue 10/15 - Reid >Tue 11/12 - CHENEY >Tue 11/19 - Barkley (MN) > >2003 > >Jan 7 Cheney** >Jan 14 Stevens >Jan 22 Stevens >Jan 28 Stevens >Feb 4 Stevens >Feb 11 Stevens >Feb 25 Stevens >Mar 4 Stevens >Mar 11 Stevens >Mar 18 Stevens >Mar 25 Stevens >Apr 1 Stevens >Apr 8 Stevens >Apr 29 Stevens >May 6 Talent >May 13 Ensign >May 20 Alexander >June 3 Stevens >June 10 Stevens >June 18 Murkowski >June 24 Coleman >July 8 Stevens >July 15 Stevens >July 22 Chaffee >July 29 Stevens >Sept 2 Stevens >Sept 9 Stevens >Sept 16 Stevens >Sept 23 Stevens >Sept 30 Sununu >Oct 21 Stevens >Oct 28 Stevens >Nov 4 Stevens >Nov 11 Warner >Nov 18 Stevens >Dec 9 Stevens > >2004 > >1/20 - Stevens >1/27 - Enzi >2/3 - Stevens >2/10 - Stevens >3/2 - Stevens >3/9 - Hagel >3/16 - Sununu >3/23 - Stevens >3/30 - Ensign >4/6 - Cornyn >4/20 - Stevens >4/27 - Chambliss >5/4 - Stevens >5/11 - Stevens >5/18 - Stevens >6/1 - Stevens >6/8 - Hutchinson >6/15 - Stevens >6/22 - Allard >7/6 - Burns >7/13 - Stevens >7/20 - Enzi >9/7 - Stevens >9/14 - Chafee >9/21 - Enzi >9/28 - Stevens >10/05 - Stevens >That's right - Cheney was there TWICE in FOUR YEARS!

Was Ritter right? <rant> damn straight he was. not only that, but saddam hussein was also right when he said he had no wmd's... this really rankled me then and still does when i recall bush spewing his saber rattling rhetoric to the effect that saddam refused to disarm so we had NO CHOICE but to send in airstrikes and troops to disarm him. if it rankles me that much, can you imagine how iraqis and others around the world feel? it takes a lot of self control, politeness and diplomacy not to blurt out the kind of adjectives about bush, cheney and rumsfield that ralph and sylvester regularly exhale... "reckless murderers" is not an unfair term in this case. the alternative? laws, courts, evidence, indictments, international police, etc. civilization cannot grow up without international law - no exemptions for any country or any man, no matter how rich or powerful. no one should be above the law. a lot of evidence is pointing to what SHOULD BE indictments. </rant> -polvo
