House GOP Leader Suggests Obama Is a "Chickens***" for Voting 'Present' in the Illinois Legislature

Bailey...voting no Against the Bush/Cheney team IS steel in your spine.

Ha! Everyone knows The One is a steaming pile of it!

To Luis @ the bottom -- perhaps you can finally vote at 38; now that illegals are being allowed to cast ballots.

Boehner so why did you vote chicken?
Boehner you have lost all respectative, just like MCCAIN the Republicans, you have no moral and ethical values
Boehner we will remember you on election day
Boehner was your children with you?
BUSH GOT US INTO A MESS, IS HE A CHICKEN, EVEN THOUGH HE COULD NOT VOTE, BUT MCCAIN AND BUSH GOT US WHERE WE ARE
DUMB-BO
THIS WAS A SAD AND DISTASTEFUL DAY FOR YOU, CRIMMAL

John Boehner replaced Rep. Don Buzz Lukens when Lukens resigned after groping Capitol elevator operators. West Chester hoped Boehner would return respect to the district. We're disappointed.

Funny thing about records, they don't lie.

Speaking of lies, where does Obama say he stands on the 2nd Amendment? I went to his website and there is nothing there.

A quick google search seemed to turn up some facts....

FACT: Barack Obama opposes four of the five Supreme Court justices who affirmed an individual right to keep and bear arms. He voted against the confirmation of Alito and Roberts and he has stated he would not have appointed Thomas or Scalia.17

FACT: Barack Obama voted for an Illinois State Senate bill to ban and confiscate “assault weapons,” but the bill was so poorly crafted, it would have also banned most semi-auto and single and double barrel shotguns commonly used by sportsmen.18

Is this same John Boehner whose stellar leadership helped defeat the original $700 billion package package only to see another $150 billion added to it? Seems to me like he shouldn't be throwing darts at Obama...

yawnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn

sos

different day

republicans about to be voted out witj good reason......... Tuesday is near

130 times Obama didn't have the guts to take a stand--so he voted present.

Where's that steel in his spine Biden talks about?

Theres no record of it anywhere at all.

I guess BO is tough because he took on Joe the plumber.

Obama is a chicken.

He is like the wimpy bully that pushes people around as long as his buddies are standing behind him.

His campaign is built on lies and intimidation.

and by the way, what is with "the miami of ohio" newspaper? did you get sent to sarah palin's plane?

John McCain's Vote Counts

Q: Is it true John McCain voted with George Bush 95 percent of the time?

A: Yes, it's true, according to Congressional Quarterly's assessment of McCain's voting record.

So, John McCain helped create a bad economy and a war in Iraq.

Thanks, John.

Thank you so much for following up on the breathtaking coverage of the Miami of Ohio student newspaper. You also have done some excellent public service reporting on church bulletins over this election cycle and some obscure blogs. Do you plan on being a journalist at any point in your career?

keep it comin' Republicans...
same DUMB STUFF....
glad this is what yer 'leaders' are quackin' about..

Nov 4th.. Obama wins and we'll see how many of you are left in the government

oh come on, you're kidding me. a college sophomore complaining about a democratically elected representative for saying "chicken-crud" =O is it just me? it's got to be just me, because Sen. Obama and Sen. Biden aren't even running away from the "elitist" label; they're embracing it. They think they can win votes by talking down to regular small-town Pennsylvanians by theorizing about their attachment to the Second Amendment of the Constitution of the United States of America and their faith. "well, accawding to my Hawvod training, smaw-town Pennsylvay nai ans 'cling' to thair guns and religion becaws of thair bitta-ness, it tis a way to explain thair frustrasions." and that's actually winning them votes! this college sophomore must be a goodie goodie who never said a bad word in her life, or she thinks elitists are just better than her, and she probably resents Joe the Plumber for daring to actually ask a tough question instead of just stand pretty and submissive for the photo-op prop that their underclass is supposed to be. I know, it's got to be just me, but I'd rather be governed by the first three hundred names in the Boston phone book than the three hundred faculty at Harvard University.

Chicken is a big word. My only concern about Obama is that he seems to stand (I am not saying hangs out with) a lot of punks - like Rev. Wright, Ayers, Kahlidi.

In 1999, Obama voted "present" on SB 759, a bill that required mandatory adult prosecution for firing a gun on or near school grounds. NOTE: The bill passed the state Senate 52-1.

Also in 1999, Obama voted "present" on HB 854 that protected the privacy of sex-abuse victims by allowing petitions to have the trial records sealed. NOTE: He was the only member to not support the bill.

INCREDIBLE! Here is a man who claims he is for children's rights and health care, and he doesn't vote YES to prosecute the firing of a gun near school grounds!!! What is he keeping things open for accidental terrorists? Sort of in keeping with the concern he has for partial birth procedures inflicted on near term babies.

OH WAIT!! There's more! He doesn't vote YES to protect the privacy of sex-abuse victims, who are mostly women, young boys and girls. He was the ONLY ONE TO VOTE PRESENT.

These are -only- a few of his 143 votes. It speaks to character and convictions.

Obama-Biden (D-ACORN) heads are exploding....

It's true.
