I'm getting sick and tired of those who claim that Obama has accomplished NOTHING in the Senate. Finally, a Democrat responds to that charge and defends Hussein!!!
Wonkette?
Yes, bigtime liberal website—very upset with the claims that Hussein has accomplished nothing.
Senator Defends Lack of Knowledge Concerning Obama’s Accomplishments [semi-satire]
In an appearance on MSNBC’s “Hardball” with Chris Matthews, Texas State Senator Kirk Watson (D-Austin) was unable to name a single legislative accomplishment of presidential candidate Senator Barack Obama (D-Ill). This was despite being asked several times and given “extra time to think” during a commercial break.
After being mocked by Obama’s presidential rival, Senator Hillary Clinton (D-N.Y.), a flummoxed Watson defended his ignorance. “Well, I’m not the only one who can’t think of anything he’s done,” Watson said to reporters. “No one else can either. Besides, the Obama campaign isn’t about accomplishment. It’s about change. He’s about turning the page and making a fresh start untainted by any of the accomplishments of the past.”

Nice cop out answer from him....lol.
If you can't accomplish anything,,,why would anyone think you can CHANGE anything (but then again, I guess according to the Hussein-apologists, maybe CHANGE isn't an accomplishment either).
Many senators have no particular accomplishments. Some of McCain’s “accomplishments” are things we don’t like! My problem with Obama is his very left wing voting record in the US Senate AND the IL state senate. That is the real reason he should not be president.
True. Fred Thompson, too, had no big accomplishments,,,HOWEVER,,,,he has stated that he considered STOPPING A LOT OF BAD LEGISLATION--to be an accomplishment that he took pride in.
Has he “done” any lobbyists?
