Go below for a bit more detail. If anything below inspires you to call or email, there's a House and Senate contact link in the Votes section. Haven't had the opportunity to read through the summaries yet for all the pasting, but I'm sure there's apt to be something INSPIRING below.

Awww hell, my next Diary was supposed to be in regards to those silent, non "Trial Attorney," law firms in George's pocket.

Instead, I find myself unexpectedly concerned about someone I don't even know.

Does anyone know what happened to Tom Kertes (previously Liberation Learning)? He hasn't posted anything since February 10. For some peculiar reason it popped into my mind that his Daily Diary(ies), which was/were previously a daily occurrence, was/were missing.

Don't tell my Mom I followed her footsteps in demanding to know what people were doing, and where they were (specifically, me as her daughter), but Tom was so vocal, I feel like I should ask.

Nay, Yay, ? list - In re: Gonzales

Update [2005-2-4 11:19:7 by DianeL]: RonK Seattle has informed that, Burns, Conrad - (R - MT), the one Republican Senator who abstained "was out of town on Air Force One, joining Bush on the Social Security road show to Montana." Consequently, the benefit of the doubt I gave him is now gone, and I've moved his data to the bottom of the heap for being a right hand man in trying to destroy Social Security. (Thank you Ronk Seattle)

In re: Republican Senators - One Republican Senator abstained so he could assist in destroying Social Security,the other 54 "Republican" Senators voted for Gonzales, if one or more of them represent YOUR STATE, the CURRENT
I'M A SENATOR OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA and I HATE HUMANITY CONTACT LIST, is at the bottom).

In re: non-Republicans: One Independent (Jeffords, VT. Spring 2001, switched from "Republican" to Independent over Education issues), 44 Democrats: Please visit below the fold: Read More

A little morose humor for your Sunday. Tongue in cheek, at least partially?

A few days ago, I signed Senator Kerry's petition to dump Rumsfeld. A few hours later, my ISP sent an e-mail, informing me:

Virus Detected: W32.Mydoom.L@mm

Message Details:
From: ____ Subject: xorbswvb....

... Virus Blocker has deleted a message sent to you
because it was generated by a virus. It was not sent by a
person, and there was no valid content in the message.

Apparently, the xorbswvb stands for `X old Rumsfeld b-tch, suffer with virus b-tch.'
