		<description>it is not very often that there is a major realignment
of political power in this country...it happens may
two or three times in a century...Republicans in the congress had their chance to reflect the views a a majority
of their constituents regarding the war in Iraq. Some did
like Chuck Hagel, and others who spoke out..others like sue
kelly didn&#039;t either because they actually believed that
removing sadam was correct even in the face of rotten
intelligence, or because they did not want to offend
the house leadership in order to be able to get money
for their district..in either case that should not be
the way the game is played...the American public 
is fed up with a foreign policy that has run amuck..
that departs from traditional conservative foreign
policy framework, that thumbs its nose at our allies
and tries to impose western values on a tribal society
because a group of former jewish socialists (the neocons)
think that israel will be safer...
The president bought into their faulty logic because
they and the evangelical right were acting out of
religions conviction not out of what was best for the 
security of the US...rumsfeld is now history and 
cheney is marginalized...The neocons are out and
the Baker/Hamilton/Gates coaliton is back...all we
need is colin powell and the US will be able to restore
it&#039;s image in the world as a leader in the fight
against terrorism rather than as a bull in a china
shop which relies on makebelieve facts to justify
going to war..sue kelly needed to answer the following
question &quot;IF YOU KNEW THEN WHAT YOU KNOW NOW WOULD 
YOU HAVE STILL VOTED TO AUTHORIZE THE PRESIDENT TO GO 
TO WAR&quot; HAD SHE DONE SO SHE WOULD STILL BE IN CONGRESS</description>

		<description>I voted for John Hall because he represents my, and obviously the majority&#039;s, views -- namely that the current Republican administration and Congress, including Sue Kelly, are beholding only to big corporate interests, and the special interest groups from which she receives her funding -- including the NRA gun lobby, and the tobacco, pharmaceutical and big oil industries. I was not promised any pipelines or water for voting for John Hall...only the hope of getting my government and democracy back from the brazen, lying crooks that tricked us into this war and unfortunately still run the COngress until Jan. 1, 2007. Mr.Arluck&#039;s sign is despicable, and he should be ashamed of himself.</description>

		<description>The question is - will the water pipeline be built and who approved it?

We all know that a candidate doesn&#039;t necessarily discuss what they will do fin exchange for votes - their handlers do.  That way, as in this case, there is deniability,</description>
