Notice that this Vote was 96-2-2? Where were Kerry and Edwards? I mean, they might have been campaigning, but then so are a lot of the Senators on the roll call. Could we conjecture that campaigning for President takes more time, then say a regular Senate campaign? /shrugs

The sheer fact that they don't even bother to show up or take their job seriously is disturbing.

I assume they missed the vote today on the Draft too. It's funny how the Dem who wrote the bill that Bush has been getting bad press over, even voted No.
Yes, the Dems are the ones who were trying to bring back the Draft.

If only 2 people voted for it its safe to assume no party supports the return of the draft

i find this a pretty good reason why the ppl who proposed the draft voted no on it

That's why you see a bill proposed by Democrats out there, even though the writers themselves voted it down. They're politicking, they know if it's passed on Bush's guard it's lights out for the GOP for awhile. |
