well, even if i'd disagree with her assessment of what
to do in afghanistand, i certainly like the fact that
she is present to vote most of the time. people really
should check up on whether or not their reps are
present to actually be a rep. there are many on both
sides of the isle that many times no shows at votes.
even if you elect a person you agree with on issues
and he/she don't show up, they are hardly representing
you are they?
